10+ Celebs Tell The Stories Behind Their Scars

During a fan Q&A in 2011, the reality star spilled the details behind the scar that she loves.

“When I was about five, my sister [Kendall] and I were playing hide and seek, and I hid inside this really tall, enclosed gate,” Kylie explained.

She continued:

"I slipped, and the pole went into my leg. I tried pulling away to get the pole out, but it just tore through my whole leg.”

Um, ouch!

The comedian has always been an open book. So, of course, she shared a picture of the scar she got from having a C-section with her first child.

"I'm really sorry if I offended anyone with my hospital underwear," she captioned the photo. "Except I'm just kidding."

The singer has a matching scar with her best friend Francia Raisa for a very important reason: Francia bravely donated her kidney to Selena.

The kidney transplant was done to help Selena's ongoing health problems with lupus.

What do Prince William and Harry Potter have in common? They both have similar scars!

While Harry got his from a deranged wizard, the Prince was accidentally hit with a golf club when he was 13.

"I call it [my Harry Potter scar] because it glows sometimes and some people notice it — other times they don't notice it at all," he said.

They may have lived completely different lives growing up, but Kate Middleton had more in common with her husband than you'd think.

Kate also has a scar near her hairline. Kensington Palace released a statement, saying, "The scar is related to a childhood operation."

Going through endometriosis, a condition that affects the tissue in the uterus, has taken its toll on this star's body.

But that hasn't stopped her from loving her body.

"when the Target swimsuit does a [expletive] right, Endo scars & all," she captioned this pic .

“I had a freak accident,” Cuoco told Ellen DeGeneres when explaining the origin behind the scars on her legs.

"At the end of the lesson my horse spooked and I wasn’t really expecting it and I fell off. I was actually getting up but my horse was still kind of spooking."

Since her leg was crushed, surgeons had to insert two steel bars to stabilize the shattered bone.

This left behind two scars: one on her ankle bone and a longer one on the front of her leg just above the foot.

If you ever wondered where Seal got the prominent scars on his face, it's the result of a skin condition known as discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE).

In addition to causing permanent scars on his face when he was 23, it also caused permanent hair loss.

Now that you've noticed her scar on the left side of her jaw, you won't be able to unsee it.

"It's impossible to talk about it without somehow seemingly exploiting it and glorifying it," the comedian told Vanity Fair in 2018.

"It was in, like, the front yard of her house, and somebody who just came up, and she just thought somebody marked her with a pen," explained her husband, Jeff Richmond.

A severe car crash is to blame for the long scar that runs along the Top Chef host's arm.

This happened when she was just 14: "A tractor-trailer rear-ended us and we fell down an embankment 40 feet."

“This is one of the biggest things ever in my life,” Hill told Rolling Stone about the scar on his right arm.

This came about when he was 15 and he and his friend snuck out in an SUV at night. Hill stuck his elbow out the open window while his friend started driving like a maniac.

He's actually lucky he ended up with just a scar, as he told the magazine that he woke up to two doctors discussing whether they would have to amputate it or not.

"I had an emergency C section so now I’m living with a scar, and a pouch of fat above it. It’s going to be there for the rest of my life, but I look at it and I think it’s so beautiful because I carried this baby," Malin said to Cosmo UK.

We love to see a woman loving her body to the absolute most!

It can be hard for people to love themselves, so this is important!

Perrie Edwards has a scar on her abdomen due to an operation, that at one point she didn't want to talk about. However, she ended up showing it off in an Instagram post.

But for a long time, she said, "I don't want to show it."

This Love Island star had a lump that was located near her left armpit, and then before her wedding she decided to get it checked.

"It turned out to be a lipoma," Olivia wrote on Instagram.

"It was cut out and was about 3x3 inches!"

We are so glad to know that she's doing well now!

Bean has a noticeable scar over his left eye that he got from Harrison Ford on the set of Patriot Games.

But he revealed it was due to the "chaotic conditions" they were dealing with on the shoot.

Ford ended up slipping and got Bean above the eye, requiring him to get 35 stitches.

"The next day we carried on filming and they shot me from the other side in profile to finish the scene."

The actor has a long scar running up his abdomen from a motorcycle crash. Most people don't know that about him, since he's not often topless in movies.

"I call that a demon ride," Keanu told Rolling Stone.

We're really hoping that he has learned from this and goes on safer rides!

We need him to stay safe! He's a national treasure after all!

The actor's made his mark on Hollywood and one of his trademark things is, in fact, that scar. But the story behind how he got his scar is a little less glamorous.

“It was crazy,” Momoa told Access Hollywood in 2011.

While it is now part of his look, to the point that fans everywhere pretty much know how he got it, we're 100% certain it was a nightmare when it happened.
