Rodrigo Mussi took a long time to be identified after being beaten for lack of documents

The family of former BBB Rodrigo Mussi took many hours to discover that he had suffered an accident. In an interview with reporters in front of the Hospital das Clínicas and which was shown on the program A Tarde É Sua (RedeTV!), his brother, Diogo, gave more details on how he found out about what had happened.

“He arrived [ao hospital] undocumented as an unknown. When we knew in the early evening [de quinta, 31] he had arrived since 4 am”, said Diogo.

According to him, the surgeries that were performed on his brother, both on the leg and on the head, were successful. “Now it depends on his recovery. We have to wait. There were multiple fractures. Tomorrow [sábado, 2] perhaps they reduce the sedation so that the treatment can continue. We ask that people continue to give strength,” he added.

Rodrigo, who was the second eliminated from Big Brother Brasil 22 (Globo), had a car accident in the early hours of Thursday (30), on the Pinheiro marginal, in São Paulo. He had just watched the São Paulo game against Palmeiras, at Morumbi stadium (south zone), and was in an app car that hit the back of a truck.

According to his advice, Mussi suffered head trauma, in addition to other fractures throughout his body. On Thursday night, the family stated, through the ex-BBB’s social networks, that he underwent surgery on his head and on one of his legs. He was sedated and was supposed to be under observation for the next 48 hours.

Mussi’s accident was even reported in the newspaper Bom Dia SP (Globo), on Thursday morning, but there was still no confirmation of the victim’s identity at the time. The former BBB was in the back seat of the car, was not wearing a belt and was thrown to the front of the vehicle after the crash. The driver did not get hurt.

Former BBB and influencer Viih Tube, 21, announced on her Instagram on Thursday night that she will take care of Mussi’s social media during this difficult time and asked for respect for the privacy of the administrator’s family.

“I’m in the hospital with Rodrigo’s family. I don’t know how to ask this of you, but Rodrigo has been a public person for a short time, the family is scared of all this, they’re not used to it. Please, I sincerely ask you to respect privacy of his family”, began in the text.

“His friend and I are controlling the networks [sociais] Rodrigo and we are 24 hours with the doctors. Trust only what you see there [no perfil oficial do ex-Brother]. At this point, it’s time to just pray and respect the family,” added Viih in his Instagram Stories.

Actor and singer Tiago Abravanel, 34, who also participated in the BBB 22, along with Rodrigo, attended the Hospital das Clínicas in the early hours of this Friday to get information from his friend. He cried and was supported in front of the unit, but he could not visit the former BBB, who is still in the ICU.
