Ruth Codd said before her operation that she expected she would feel “pretty invincible” after the procedure

Celebrity Traitors player and actress Ruth Codd has said she is recovering after a second leg amputation operation.

The Irish artist posted on TikTok that she is living with family after undergoing surgery to remove her leg below the knee.

Codd had his first amputation at the age of 23 after injuring his leg playing soccer as a teenager, saying it caused complications and pain for eight years.

Speaking about her recent operation, she said: “The good news is, we’ve had a full-circle moment. I’m back in my parents’ house making TikTok content. The bad news is, I can’t do it above because I had a second amputation below the knee.”

He added, “There’s a lot to unpack for everyone involved.”

The 29-year-old posted the following on TikTok before she was cast in the Netflix horror series The Midnight Club, which was her TV debut.

Most recently, Celebrity Traitors viewers watched as Codd shared his true suspicions about fellow player Jonathan Ross before he was murdered on the show.

Codd previously spoke about the intentions of his latest operation in an interview on YouTube channel FFTV.

“The way I use my crutches means I’m always standing on my toes,” she told host Grace Neutral.

“The situation was exactly the same with the other one.

“The quality of my life, at this point, is never going to get better.”

Codd appeared in the live-action remake of How to Train Your Dragon in early 2025.

He played Phlegma the Fierce, a Viking warrior with no leg.

Around the film’s release, Codd said she was proud to play a “strong, capable” character with a limb difference.

“The health problems I faced last year haven’t stopped me from doing anything,” he told FFTV.

“But I feel like it has hindered my work and made my ability to do my job more difficult.

“I’ve been through this once before, so I think with two prosthetics, I’ll be pretty much invincible.”
