In a photo posted to hisInstagramon Sunday, Margera posed with singer Raven Gray with a visible cast — one that covers his entire hand and ends at his upper arm. Margera didn’t share the details of the skateboarding accident, but his followers wished him well and sent their hopes for a speedy healing.
Margera officially completed one year of substance use treatment last Tuesday. He was reunited with his wife, Nikki Boyd, and son Phoenix, 4, in Florida. Margera and his family will continue to live in the Florida area so Margera can participate in outpatient AA groups, as well as other classes to enhance his sobriety, he toldTMZ.
His decision to visit the rehabilitation center in 2021 comes after Margera was removed from the movieJackass Foreverafter testing positive for Adderall, which was a violation of his “wellness agreement” with theJackassfranchise.
Due to his dismissal from the film, Margera only appeared in oneJackass Foreverstunt. Knoxville previously spoke abouthis friend’s absence.
“It’s really heartbreaking,” Knoxville toldVariety. “I love Bam. We all love Bam. He’s our brother, you know? You just hope that he takes it upon himself to get the help that he needs, because we all care about him a lot.”
