Joey King is recovering after a cooking accident.
The Kissing Booth alum shared a glimpse of the injuries she sustained to her face as a result of oil splatter, but she’s in good spirits about the ordeal.
In a collage of pictures uploaded to her Instagram Story Jan. 28, the 25-year-old—who tied the knot with husband Steven Piet in 2023—showed the various healing stages of the burns on her chin and neck. In one picture where the burns are covered in ointment, Joey lightheartedly held up a peace sign with her hand as she pursed her lips.
“I burned myself a few days ago by throwing shallots into a pan of hot oil,” she wrote on the images, hilariously adding, “I called my mom to tell her and she says, ‘See that’s why I hate cooking.’”
But Joey hasn’t inherited that trait from her mom. In fact, she gushed about how much she loves the act during a cooking segment on The Drew Barrymore Show.
