Country music singer Zach Bryan and his girlfriend Brianna LaPaglia recently experienced a serious car accident that has left a lasting impact.
Zach Bryan and Brianna LaPaglia survived a severe car crash last week and credit seat belts for saving their lives, Fox News reported.
The accident, described by LaPaglia as "traumatizing," occurred late last week. The pair were in a side-by-side vehicle that flipped multiple times, resulting in a dangerous and terrifying situation.
LaPaglia, a well-known podcaster and social media influencer, shared a video recounting the harrowing experience on her TikTok account. She explained, "Two nights ago, Zach and I got into a traumatizing side-by-side car crash. It flipped a bunch of times. Everything shattered and thanked God we had our seatbelts on."
Bryan sustained a significant gash during the accident, narrowly avoiding a more severe injury. Despite the blood and shock, the couple managed to stay calm until emergency services arrived.
After the accident, LaPaglia took to social media again on Tuesday to stress the importance of wearing seat belts. She shared the impact the incident had on her perspective regarding vehicle safety, stating, "If we didn't have our seat belts on, we would be decapitated — broken necks or dead."
LaPaglia's heartfelt message underlined her determination to advocate for seat belt use, vowing to be "that helicopter stupid f---ing annoying friend" who insists that everyone buckle up before driving.
Though Bryan didn't directly mention the accident on his social media, he expressed his deep gratitude for LaPaglia's support on Instagram. In an emotional post, he praised her resilience and support, especially during his hectic touring schedule and the aftermath of the accident.
This lady holds the weight up of everyone around her day in and day out. Through these month-long tour runs, to my degenerate ass making an album. You're my muse Brianna and I don't understand how the hell you hold it together when people around you can't. Thank you forever and always no matter what.
While the couple has been recovering, the accident has not stopped Bryan from continuing his tour. Living on a tour bus, he and LaPaglia are navigating the challenges and stress following such a traumatic event. LaPaglia offered additional context to her followers, saying there was a lot of blood and that they thought they were saying goodbye to each other before emergency services arrived. Once Bryan was stitched up, they felt thankful that the injuries were not more severe.
LaPaglia's perspective on seat belts has been shaped by past experiences as well. She mentioned that her dedication to wearing seat belts started due to her parents' teachings and the loss of a neighborhood friend in high school who was not wearing one. This accident has only solidified her commitment.
I will be that annoying person. I will spend the rest of my life saying, ‘Wear your seat belts.’ I've always been a seat belt wearer just because my parents always made me. And, in high school, a neighborhood friend passed away and wasn't wearing a seat belt.
Despite this incident, Bryan continues to perform and produce music, supported by LaPaglia. Her messages on social media have turned into a campaign to promote safety and remind her followers of the critical importance of seat belts. In summary, Zach Bryan and Brianna LaPaglia survived a severe car accident last week due to wearing seat belts. LaPaglia has been vocal about sharing their experience to advocate for seat belt use.
