The country music star Zach Bryan and his girlfriend Brianna Chickenfry are lucky to be alive after they were involved in a ‘traumatizing’ car crash over the weekend.
Brianna (real name: Brianna LaPaglia) shared the terrifying details of the crash in a TikTok video posted Tuesday.
The 24-year-old social media star — who hosts Barstool Sports’ popular Plan Bri podcast — revealed that Bryan, 28, was seriously injured in the crash, which left them covered in a ‘lot of blood.’
‘Two nights ago, Zach and I got into a traumatizing side-by-side car crash,’ she shared in her video. ‘[The vehicle] flipped a bunch of times. Everything shattered, and thank God we had our seatbelts on.’
Brianna, who revealed she was dating Zach in July of last year, admitted that they thought their time together was about to come to an end as they sat injured in the wrecked hulk of their car.

‘There was a lot of blood, and we thought, like, we were like saying goodbye to each other,’ she said dramatically. ‘After the ambulance came and he got all stitched up, we were like, “Oh my God, thank God. Didn’t hit an artery. It was just a huge gash.”‘
She added: ‘We were OK. We are happy and alive.’
Brianna returned for another video in which she urged her followers to always wear their seatbelts in case they were involved in a crash.
‘I will be that annoying person,’ she began. ‘I will spend the rest of my life saying, “Wear your seat belts.” I’ve always been a seat belt wearer just because my parents always made me. And, in high school, a neighborhood friend passed away and wasn’t wearing a seat belt.
‘But I was never the person to be like, “Put your seat belt on. Wear a seat belt.” I was like, “People are gonna do what they want to do.” Not anymore,’ she declared.
‘I’m gonna be that helicopter stupid f***ing annoying friend that’s like, “Put your seat belt on or the car’s not moving,”‘ Brianna added.
‘If we didn’t have our seat belts on, we would literally be decapitated — broken necks or dead,’ she claimed.
Although the podcast host recounted all the chilling details of the crash, her country singer boyfriend has stayed surprisingly quiet about the ordeal.

The near-death experience may have accounted for a set of loving posts he shared about his girlfriend to his Instagram Stories, though Zach didn’t address the crash directly

He avoided posting about it on his social media accounts, though the near-death experience may have accounted for a set of loving posts he shared about his girlfriend to his Instagram Stories.
‘this lady holds the weight up of everyone around her day in and day out,’ he gushed along with a photo of Brianna sitting on a sofa next to a dog. ‘Through these month long tour runs, to my degenerate a** making an album. You’re my muse Brianna and I don’t understand how the hell you hold it together when people around you can’t. Thank you forever and always no matter what [sic].’
Another post was a screenshot of text messages she apparently sent to keep Zach’s spirits high.
‘people don’t know this lady like ida but she sends me these day in and day out. No matter how tired I am, no matter how she feels,’ he wrote. ‘She’s the most loving and supporting woman on the planet. I reckon God is a funny man and I pray apart from me, the world sees Brianna for who she is [sic].’
