The 89-year-old sustained several " serious fractures" to different parts of her hip and femur, her agent Andrea Giusti told the PA news agency.

A spokesperson told Reuters the surgery " went well and now she needs to rest and everything will be resolved".
Loren has had a long career, after being born into poverty in Naples. She went on to become a Hollywood star, winning an Oscar in 1962 for Vittorio de Sica's film La Ciociara (Two Women ) about a wartime mother's rape.

She also starred opposite Hollywood greats including Marlon Brando , Frank Sinatra and Cary Grant .
In 1990, Loren also won an honorary award at The Oscars , and in 2021, her career was revived with a critically acclaimed performance in The Life Ahead, directed by Loren's son Edoardo.
The Star played a Holocaust survivor who forges a bond with a 12-year-old Senegalese immigrant.
