In the photo, Atkins lounged on a couch with his arm wrapped in gauze and a brace. He gave fans a thumbs-up as he posed for the post-surgery shot.
Atkins did not go into detail about the procedure, but he replied to a fan who asked what type of surgery he had. “Lots of sports as a kid. Caught up to me. Got a metal elbow,” Atkins revealed.
View this post on Instagram“Last hike in Switzerland!” he captioned an outdoor shot. “Simply beautiful hike through the snow and frozen waterfalls! Would have been back in NY but good Ole Delta canceled the flight then were absolutely incapable of rerouting. Wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't having surgery the next day! Thanks to my friends who stayed hours on the phone and finally after Delta saying there is nothing, 'happened' to find a flight.”
In a 2025 interview with Woman’s Day, Atkins revealed that a surgery cut his career plans short more than 40 years ago. “My dream was to become a pro baseball player, but that was sidelined after undergoing knee surgery,” he told the outlet last July. “I was a sailing instructor and model when I auditioned for The Blue Lagoon.”
“Randal Kleiser, who’d directed Grease with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, said I had the right look and physique," Atkins shared. "Randal envisaged a tanned Adonis with blond curly hair. So Mum dragged out an old wig, which I wore to the audition. For the movie, they permed my hair, which was a nightmare. That infamous loincloth I wore was very uncomfortable, as it was fashioned from coconut husk and palm fronds.”
Atkins continues to act more than 45 years later. His most recent role was in the 2025 action-thriller Out for Vengeance, per IMDb.
