Dancing With The Stars finalist Cristian de la Fuente is recuperating after undergoing surgery on his arm yesterday morning.
The 34-year-old actor thanked fans for their well-wishes after he injured the tendon in his left arm performing a samba on the hit show at the end of last month.
He told People magazine, “Thank you to everyone for their concern and well wishes.”
Dr. Neal S. Elattrache, who performed the operation, added, “I was able to get a perfect repair of the bicep. Cristian will spend about a week in a splint, then start rehab.
“(In three months) he will have a full recovery and full strength back.”
