Why it matters

Quinton Aaron—who portrayed defensive lineman Michael Oher in 2009's The Blind Side—has been put on life support following being hospitalized over a fall he took in his home, his wife shared.

Key takeaways

  • The Total Bellas alum revealed that one of her breast implants shifted after an elbow slam from fellow WWE star Piper Niven during a July 2025 wrestling match.
  • The United States Women’s National Team player could be seen slowly sitting down on the field with a teammate by her side, per Reuters, as the referee called for trainers to check her out.
  • I could have went home after my stroke, but my lupus wasn't doing so well," the Snoop's Fatherhood: Cori and Wayne's Story star continued.

This isn't the first time Quinton has provided insight into his health struggles. Back in March, he shared that he was hospitalized after experiencing a fever and bloody cough. 

At the time, Quinton told TMZ that he had undergone testing at a medical facility in Southern California, where doctors believed that he was likely experiencing Type A flu and pneumonia. 

And the Halfway actor faced another health scare in 2019, when he was admitted to a hospital due to an upper respiratory infection and a bronchitis flare up. 

Shortly after, he shared an update saying he'd made a full recovery after being sick "for the past couple months."

"I'm out, everything is all good,” Aaron said in a since-deleted Instagram video. “I'm gonna go take my medicines. I'm about to go home and take a nap because I'm tired, couldn't sleep, people walking in my room at all hours of the night."
