‘Saved by the Bell’ star Tiffani Thiessen says she needs hip replacement at 52 after painful diagnosis

Résumé détaillé

Thiessen claimed her flexibility as a child, which helped her to dance, might have caused her hip issues.

Tiffani Thiessen’s active lifestyle hit a painful roadblock after the “Saved by the Bell” star learned she was dealing with more than just the usual aches and pains.

The 52-year-old actress shared her diagnosis and revealed she has to have a hip replacement during an appearance on the “Breaking Bread with Tom Papa” podcast.

“I was a dancer when I was younger, which was a good thing,” Thiessen explained. “I have a torn labrum. That’s one issue I have.

“This is what happens. Just wait. You guys just wait,” she jokingly warned. “And then I found out going to my second opinion that I’m basically a German shepherd. I have hip dysplasia.”

Thiessen claimed her flexibility as a child, which helped her to dance, might have caused her hip issues.

“I hear that hip replacements aren’t as bad as knee and shoulder,” she added.

Thiessen’s painful condition eventually forced her to put one of her favorite pastimes on hold.

“My doctor didn’t say it was pickleball, but it probably hasn’t helped,” she admitted. “I have not been able to play in the last couple weeks because my hip’s been so bad.”

Thiessen often plays alongside her son, who started playing less than a year ago.
