“My whole right arm is bandaged up, half of my left arm,” Wilson told Fox News. “My face is basically melted from nose down. But the swelling’s gone down, and they said the face is kind of amazing that it’s regenerative, it happens real fast, seems to heal quickly. I’ve had better days, I guess, but I’m alive, so I’m doing good.”
The injuries came from explosion of a bonfire at his farm in Iowa that he shares with girlfriend Kelly Osbourne and young son Sidney. As we reported last week, Wilson shared a video from the hospital via Instagram and told fans, “Hi, everybody, I had an explosion in my face. I’m okay, I’m gonna be okay, but I did have some serious burns to my face and my arms. I’m singed everywhere. Eyebrows are singed. My mouth is blistered. My arms [are] pretty bad. Both of my arms.”
Kelly shared also shared an Instagram update about the incident and shared, “This is why you don’t f*** with burn piles. He literally set himself on fire, exploded everything.”

He’s recovering with his family and will still join us on stage at Rocklahoma next weekend. He thanks everyone for the well wishes, and will see you all soon.”
