Lisa Vanderpump thanks fans for the support.

In her update since the accident, the reality star added photos of the bouquets she has received at home.

"Thank you for all the well wishes and beautiful flowers, I am doing much better after surgery!" Vanderpump wrote in the caption.

"4 fractures in my leg and a badly bruised back, but I am on the road to recovery!" she continued.

The "Vanderpump Rules" star ended her message by writing, "I will be back in the saddle of life soon!"

On Sunday, Vanderpump fell from her horse. It was her husband Ken Todd, 76, who confirmed to TMZ that she broke her leg in multiple places and had surgery soon after. The British restaurateur's procedure involved "plates and screws" that can take eight to 10 weeks for recovery.

Todd also said Vanderpump might be done with equestrian sports for good following what happened to her.

"I think maybe that was her last ride. I would never ride again," he told the outlet. "This is our horse, a gentle, gentle horse. Cabala horse — perfect, perfect. He was amazing. Something spooked him, and you never know when that's gonna happen."

As it was an accident, Todd noted that the couple would not be taking any legal action.

"It's one of those things that happens in life," he said, adding that his wife also still "loves that horse."

According to Todd, after Vanderpump fell, she knew she was badly injured.

"I was there. When I saw her thrown off, I couldn't believe it," he recalled. "I was in shock. I ran over there and she was just on the floor. And she knew that she'd broken her leg straight away."

Vanderpump has always been an animal-lover. During her 2016 interview with Time Magazine, she talked about how animals freely roam her house.

"It was never a normal situation at home," she said. "There would always be ponies in the kitchen and I rode the horse to the village in my pajamas and we had ducks on the bed."

"Now it’s the Vanderpump Dog Foundation. We started off doing a rally to the Chinese embassy, which Bravo covered. Thank God for reality television—there’s some good! This normally isn’t on their charitable aspirations, but they covered it! They were initially reticent to get involved—they don’t like to make political statements. I said, 'Well, this isn’t a political statement. It’s kind of a bipartisan issue.' Nobody thinks we should be torturing dogs. So they said, 'We’ll cover it.' And it had a certain feel-good factor about it for Bravo—to not just see women rolling around on the floor or having a manicure," she added.

During the chat, Vanderpump also noted that one of the reasons why she joined "RHOBH" again was because of animals.

"I was unsure, because I have Vanderpump Rules and I’ve been beaten up so badly on Housewives," she recalled. I just thought, I don’t know if I can go in for another round. Anyway, we decided, okay, go in once more, but would they try and show some of the things I’m really involved in? So we’ve done the rallies; we’ve done the placards, which we’ve sent all over the world encouraging other countries to support us; we’ve done the t-shirts; we did the PSA, and Sharon Osbourne was good enough to help me on that; we did a song that was given to me by Diane Warren, who’s fantastic, and Leona Lewis is singing it. And now we’re doing a documentary, which shows activists on the ground in China trying to put an end to the festival. In China, we set up a rescue situation where we infiltrated the meat trucks and took dogs off there that were going to be slaughtered, bringing dogs over as Yulin ambassadors."
