Sharon Stone revealed she had suffered what appeared to be a black eye during her lavish summer vacation.
The 66-year-old Oscar nominee – who boasts 3.9M Instagram followers – captioned her worrying post: ‘This trip has been tough; but I’m tougher.’
Sharon’s left eye was injured in a shocking elevator snap she shared of herself wearing a plunging black top beneath a white-patterned pantsuit.
Stone’s Instagram received concerned and supportive comments from folks like Emmy winner Niecy Nash, Beverly Hills socialite Nikki Haskell, MSNBC political analyst Molly Jong Fast, and artist Jay Misurka.
It’s unclear when the What About Love actress hurt her eye, but she revealed she was in Turkey on Wednesday with a snap of the backyard of her hotel room.
Before that, Sharon traveled to France and Italy where she was honored with a lifetime achievement award at the Taormina Film Festival on July 19.
If real, the shiner would definitely hinder Stone’s lucrative gig as brand ambassador of LensCrafters.
But the Pennsylvania-born blonde would fit right in on the set of Universal Pictures’ highly-anticipated action sequel Nobody 2 – hitting US/UK theaters on August 15, 2025 – in which she was cast as the main antagonist opposite Bob Odenkirk.
Ilya Naishuller’s critically-acclaimed 2021 original film Nobody – starring the 61-year-old comedian as a government assassin-turned-office worker battling Russian mobsters – had a modest budget of $16M and yet managed to amass $57.5M at the global box office.
Taking over directing duties is German-born Indonesian filmmaker Timo Tjahjanto – who previously helmed The Big 4 (2022), V/H/S/94 (2021), and May the Devil Take You Too (2020).
Sharon and Bob previously co-starred as agent Iris Burton and Tommy Wiseau’s method acting teacher, respectively, in James Franco’s 2017 critically-acclaimed biographical comedy, The Disaster Artist.
Stone famously got her big break playing villains in Paul Verhoeven’s 1990 film Total Recall and his 1992 film Basic Instinct, and she just landed another baddie on the big screen.
The avid painter will also appear in the 11th season of Finding Your Roots with Henry Louis Gates, Jr., which premieres early next year on PBS.
‘I just found out that I’m French royalty,’ Sharon boasted to THR on July 9.
‘I just did that show on PBS, Finding Your Roots, and it turns out I’m related to Charlemagne. I am from a long line of royalty in France!’
On the personal front, Stone has three adopted sons – Roan Joseph Stone (formerly Bronstein), 24; Laird Vonne Stone, 19; and Quinn Kelly Stone, 18.
Sharon Stone’s recent vacation mishap has left fans concerned about her well-being. The actress, known for her roles in iconic films like Total Recall and Basic Instinct, took to Instagram to share a photo of what appeared to be a black eye.

The picture, taken in an elevator, shows Stone wearing a stylish black top and a white-patterned pantsuit. Fans and friends, including Emmy winner Niecy Nash and MSNBC political analyst Molly Jong Fast, flooded the comments section with messages of support for the actress.
It’s unclear when exactly Stone sustained the injury, but she revealed that she was in Turkey at the time of the incident. Prior to her trip to Turkey, Stone had been traveling in France and Italy, where she received a lifetime achievement award at the Taormina Film Festival.
Despite the black eye, Sharon Stone continues to stay busy with her acting career. She is set to play the main antagonist in the highly-anticipated action sequel Nobody 2, alongside Bob Odenkirk.
