Ruru Madrid suffers hamstring injury on ‘Lolong’ set

KAPUSO actor Ruru Madrid sustained a hamstring injury while filming an action scene for the primetime series “Lolong.”

In a social media post, Madrid recounted the moment he got hurt, saying he felt a sudden “pop” in his leg before collapsing. The actor was immediately rushed to the hospital, where doctors confirmed he had suffered a hamstring pull.

To determine the severity of the injury, Madrid underwent an MRI. He expressed hope that it was not a Grade 3 strain, as this would require a longer recovery period and possibly impact his ongoing projects.

Despite the setback, Madrid remains optimistic about his recovery. He reassured his fans that he is determined to bounce back soon.

“This is just a pause, not the end,” the actor said, adding that he is grateful for the overwhelming support from his family, friends, and fans.

Madrid also thanked his girlfriend, Kapuso actress Bianca Umali, for being by his side during this challenging time.
