Cops told TMZ that Godfrey suffered two broken legs, and is currently in surgery.
Godfrey’s manager, Theo Swerissen, confirmed to the Los Angeles Times that the actress was hospitalized but that she was awake and talking. He was uncertain about the exact nature of her injuries.
Godfrey, a Hodgkin's lymphoma survivor, is currently involved in a hot B&B storyline in which her character Caroline is dealing with a bitter and jealous husband, Rick (Jacob Young), fighting feelings for his older half brother, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), and taking on mother-in-law Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang).
Godfrey is married to The Young and the Restless actor Robert Adamson (Noah Newman). They welcomed their first child, Aleda Seren Adamson, on June 12, 2014.
UPDATE (11:30 p.m. ET):
Some outlets are saying that initial reports that Godfrey broke both legs are false, and that she only injured her ankles. We will update this post as official news comes in.
"Please send strong healing energy to my beautiful on screen daughter and lovely friend," tweeted Crystal Chappell, who plays Danielle Spencer on B&B.
UPDATE (February 3, 6:17 a.m. ET):
Godfrey's injuries were limited to her ankles and she is expected to make a full recovery.
The Bold and the Beautiful was dark on Monday. Producers have rearranged taping for the next few days.
Godfrey's co-stars posted messages of support on Twitter:
