British actress Natasha Richardson, who appeared as a guest chef on "Top Chef: New York" this past season, (12 Days of Christmas episode) is in critical condition in a Montreal hospital after being severely injured in a skiing accident in Quebec, according to published reports.
People.com and IrishCentral.com reported that the Tony award-winning actress and wife of Liam Neeson (pictured to the left) suffered a head injury Monday and is in a Montreal hospital.
People.com said Richardson was initially taken to a hospital near the luxury Mont Tremblant ski resort in Quebec, and was later transferred to the Montreal hospital.
A family member confirmed Richardson had had a skiing accident.
"We know that she has had an accident but we really do not know any more details," said Kika Markham, who is married to Richardson's uncle, Corin Redgrave. "We are very concerned."
Richardson, 45, is the elder daughter of Oscar-winning actress Vanessa Redgrave and the late director Tony Richardson, and belongs to a British acting dynasty.
UPDATE: So heart-breakingly sad. Natasha Richardson dies at age 45.
