Sharon Stone Shows Off Huge Black Eye During ‘Tough’ Trip to Turkey

Sharon Stone is proudly rocking quite the shiner. The 66-year-old actress strikes a fabulous pose in an open elevator while drawing attention to her massive black eye in a new post on social media. 

“This trip has been tough; but I’m tougher 🤪,” Stone captioned the image on Instagram amid her current vacation in Turkey. In the picture, the Basic Instinct star wears a low-cut black top with a black and white printed shirt and pants set. She stands with one arm leaning against the elevator while popping a knee out in front. 

After fans expressed concern over Stone’s apparent injury, the star returned to the platform with a selfie video to explain what happened. 

“I’ve been in so many hotels and so many countries that I got up in the middle of the night to pee, and didn’t know where I was,” she admitted. “And [I] smacked my face on the marble.”

She continued, “No, nobody did anything to me and yes, I’m just fine.”

Stone said she’s “having a great time” on her trip and is “being welcomed very beautifully.” 

The actress wore a sun hat as she lounged by the pool at her hotel, briefly removing her sunglasses to reveal the healing bruise underneath. 

“It’s getting better,” she said. “But it really is a good looking shiner.” 

She joked, “You should see what I did to that marble floor!” 

Prior to sharing her video, Stone had offered up a photo of her digs in Turkey. 

“If anyone is considering Turkey for a vaca – this is the backyard of my hotel room 😵‍💫❤️,” she captioned the photo of a peaceful-looking oasis complete with lush trees and a pool. 

Stone’s accident comes about a week after she stepped out looking chic for the Knights of Charity Gala in Cannes, France, on July 22. 

Last month, she also opened up to The Hollywood Reporter about living “for joy” following her devastating near-fatal stroke in 2001. 

“I had a death experience and then they brought me back,” she described. “I bled into my brain for nine days, so my brain was shoved to the front of my face. It wasn’t positioned in my head where it was before. And while that was happening, everything changed. My sense of smell, my sight, my touch. I couldn’t read for a couple of years. Things were stretched and I was seeing color patterns. A lot of people thought I was going to die.”

Amid a near-decade of recovery, her multi-million fortune, according to Stone, dwindled to nothing. 

“People took advantage of me over that time. I had $18 million saved because of all my success, but when I got back into my bank account, it was all gone,” she told THR. “My refrigerator, my phone — everything was in other people’s names.”

More than two decades after that life-changing ordeal, Stone now lives by a mantra that may resonate with others grappling with obstacles in their own lives. 

“If you bite into the seed of bitterness, it never leaves you. But if you hold faith, even if that faith is the size of a mustard seed, you will survive,” she said. “So, I live for joy now. I live for purpose.”
