Celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe has shared frightening news that her 9-year-old son recently fell 40 feet from a ski lift.

Posting details of the incident to her Instagram story, Zoe wrote: “Sky fell 40 feet from a ski lift yesterday … By a miracle and the Ski patrol heroes who quickly put a mat under where they thought he would fall ultimately saved his life or from what could have happened.”

Zoe also shared footage of her son standing up and walking around. "I'm kinda hurting but I'm fine", he said in the video.

The Janie and Jack collection designer is still reeling from the incident, writing that she and Berman are "scarred for life".

Following up her initial post, Zoe returned to Instagram, writing that she has "never felt more love" from fans.

"Sky read every message and is so happy and grateful as am I it means everything to feel the love and healing coming this way," she wrote. "Many of you are asking what happened and in short without too much detail that I will share when ready here it is.."

She concluded, noting that her son had been "more brave" than she and Berman. "Truth be told Sky was more brave than either of us and we continue to just kiss, hug and simply just stare at him until further notice ... hug your babies extra from us today."
