Judith Jersey injured in serious fall after series of hardships

German Schlager singer Judith Jersey has reported a serious accident following a series of personal and health hardships. The 74-year-old singer, part of the duo Judith and Mel, suffered a severe fall on a historical staircase in Bad Zwischenahn, Lower Saxony, approximately six weeks ago. The incident occurred when another person fell and pulled Jersey down with them.

The accident required nearly five hours of medical treatment to stitch wounds on her head and leg. Jersey described the experience as being “green and blue from top to bottom” and suffering from unbearable pain.

This accident follows a difficult period for the singer and her husband, Mel Jersey. Their recent challenges include a heart attack, a pulmonary embolism, heart valve surgery, and a house fire on New Year's Eve that rendered their home uninhabitable. Despite these setbacks, Jersey expressed optimism regarding her recovery, viewing the accident as the “echo of a streak of bad luck.”
