Actor Zach Gilford, known for his roles in 'Criminal Minds: Evolution', 'Midnight Mass', and 'Friday Night Lights', recently experienced a severe allergic reaction that left his face significantly swollen.
As the star of CBS's serial killer procedural Criminal Minds : Evolution, as well as horror series like Midnight Mass and The Fall of the House of Usher, actor Zach Gilford is no stranger to gruesome appearances, but things got a little too real when the 42-year-old actor had an allergic reaction on Monday, December 16. The Crazy Kind of Love actor shared photos to his Instagram Story on Tuesday, December 17 that highlighted his swollen face. 'Soooo...
yesterday was fun,' he wrote in the caption of the first picture. He didn't explain what had caused the reaction, but he did write in the caption of a selfie from the hospital, in which his eyes were practically swollen shut, 'Good thing we wrapped @criminalminds last week.' Clearly, the Good Girls actor felt he would not be ready to return to work any time soon. Fans of the Friday Night Lights star needn't fear that his face will be irreparably damaged, however. The final selfie Gilford shared showed that the swelling was already reduced significantly. In the caption, Gilford thanked 'all the nurses, doctors, and staff at @huntingtonhospital for coaxing face back to normalcy,' although he admitted that he had '...still a little ways to go,' before true normalcy could be achieved. Gilford rose to fame by playing Matt Saracen on the popular NBC football drama, Friday Night Lights. He currently plays Elias Voit, a serial killer and the main antagonist in Criminal Minds: Evolution, which is a spinoff of the original CBS police procedural starring Mandy Patinkin. Gilford's real life wife, Keile Sanchez, portrays Elias' wife, Sydney Voit, on the show. The couple share a seven-year-old daughter, Zeppelin Adele Gilford, who was born via a surrogate after their previous attempt to become parents sadly ended in a stillbirth
