"Dad is safe and sound and recovering at home in his @lazboy (which he convinced me belongs back in the center of the room. Thank you for all the week wishes and to the wonderful doctors and nurses who helped our family!" Bell captioned the photo.

"EDIT: for those asking, he was in an accident last Friday and shattered his shoulder, broke his pinky and 4 ribs," she added. Bell also posted an X-ray of Shepard's shoulder.

Several people took to the comments section to extend their support and wishes.

"Speedy recovery, well wishes, much love to the fam," one person wrote.

"The ribs kill for a long time. Wishing you well," wrote another user.

During a recent episode of his "Armchair Expert" podcast, Shepard opened up about the motorcycle accident and revealed that he had to undergo a surgery.

"I was passing six guys on Sonoma Raceway on a motorcycle and I was braking very, very hard -- hard enough that the back wheel was off the ground for a good 100 yards. And then someone turned in, as they have the right to, I was totally at blame. I thought I would be able to slide in between, but someone turned in and I was already under full brake and I couldn't go anywhere," he explained.

"I've been at the hospital for seven hours today. The final tally was four broken ribs, the clavicle's broken in three places, and I need surgery. And then I broke my hand that I'd broke a couple months ago," he added.

On Aug. 19, Shepard took to Instagram to post a photo of his injuries and thank his fans for their support.

"Thank you Armcherries for all the well wishes and concern. I'm in one piece and spirits are high :) Sorry for causing concern,” he captioned the photo.
