Queen's Brian May landed himself in hospital after having an unfortunate accident while gardening, where he hurt his behind!

He shared a photo on his Instagram wearing a face mask, describing the pain as "relentless".

"Reality check! For me. No - the Virus didn’t get me yet - thank God. Hope you’re all keeping extra-safe out there. A decision to relax controls doesn’t suddenly make the danger go away. But me ?? Yes, I’ve been quiet. Reason ? As well as getting over-stretched and harassed by too many demands ... I managed to rip my Gluteus Maximus to shreds in a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening.

So suddenly I find myself in a hospital getting scanned to find out exactly how much I’ve actually damaged myself. Turns out I did a thorough job - this is a couple of days ago - and I won’t be able to walk for a while...or sleep, without a lot of assistance, because the pain is relentless.

So, folks ... I need to go dark for a while, getting some complete rest, at home. Please, please don’t send me sympathy - I just need some healing silence for a while. I’ll be back - but I need the complete break. OK ? Thanks. Take care out there. Bri

While Brian has asked for some healing silence, he's still posted videos on his Instagram. He can't seem to get away!

Wishing him a speedy recovery!
