Ruth Codd has given her fans another health update In a TikTok video shared on Friday as she shared a clip of her walking again following her second leg amputation.
The Celebrity Traitors star, 29, showed herself holding on to parallel bars in hospital as she practiced walking with her prosthetic legs.
The actress seemed to be in positive spirits as she made light of her situation and captioned the motivating video: ‘When you have no legs left to amputate so you’re wondering what you’re going to do for attention in 2026.’
Continuing the humour, she wrote under the clip: ‘Terrible day for the Wikifeet community #newyearnewlegs.’
Ruth was looking very festive as she wore an oversized jumper with a cat wearing a Christmas sweater and a Santa hat while holding a glass of wine.

She paired this with a black turtleneck top underneath and completed the look with shorts and striped leggings.
The Irish actress had one leg amputated when she was 23, eight years after sustaining a football injury that did not heal properly.
And in November she confirmed her second below-the-knee amputation as she became wheelchair bound while she recovered at her parents’ home.
Taking to Instagram with a defiant one finger gesture last week, she revealed immediate plans to be mobile again courtesy of a new artificial leg.
Sharing a selfie with followers, she wrote: ‘After a brief hiatus, world domination and winding up middle aged white men shall resume as of 10am. New legs loading.’
Ruth earned a new legion of fans after appearing on the first British series of The Celebrity Traitors in October.
She was the second contestant to be murdered by presenter Jonathan Ross, singer Cat Burns and the show’s eventual winner, comedian Alan Carr.
Weeks later, the actress confirmed she had undergone a second leg amputation.

Addressing TikTok followers, she said: ‘Hi guys, so I have some good news and some bad news.
‘Good news, we’ve had a full circle moment, I’m back making TikTok content in my parents’ house, bad news, I can’t do it in front of that lovely blue floral wallpaper anymore, due to the fact that, that room is upstairs, and I’ve just had my second below knee amputation.
‘So unfortunately, those facilities are not available to me at the current moment in time, yes, so lots of unpack there for everyone involved.’
The Irish actress went on to say that she had also got a new wheelchair, which she had named “Fat Tony”.
She added: ‘She has the top speed of f*** all per hour, especially if there’s a step involved.’
Ruth previously explained that worsening nerve pain caused by a football injury had impacted her mental health as her ‘whole life’ revolved around trying to heal her leg.
She told the Irish Examiner: ‘For years, I didn’t see it getting any better. I was stuck in a really bad mindset and I was p****d off at life.’
After repeated failed surgeries, she made the decision to amputate her right leg, saying: ‘It took eight years of my life, constantly going in and out of hospital.
‘When I made the decision to amputate it, things finally started to turn around. It was a relief. I could get on my life.’
