March 24, 2023 Gwyneth Paltrow took the witness stand Friday in the civil trial that has pitted the Oscar winner against a retired optometrist with whom she collided during a ski trip in 2016.
A 76-year-old optometrist, Dr. Terry Sanderson, has accused the actress and wellness guru of a hit-and-run crash - slamming into him while skiing on a beginner’s run at Deer Valley Resort, causing ongoing injuries, and then quickly leaving the scene along with her instructor. Specifically, he alleges Paltrow, 50, delivered a “full body hit” resulting in permanent traumatic brain injury, four broken ribs, pain, suffering and loss of enjoyment of life.
“I was hit by Mr. Sanderson and he was at fault,” Paltrow declared. “I assume that Eric [Christiansen] - who was our ski instructor who was there at the time, who was overseeing the event - he said, ‘I’m going to leave all of your information,’ and he said, ‘You should go ski down’ because my kids were waiting for me.”
Sanderson’s attorney, Kristin Van Orman, pressed for Paltrow to admit she left the scene without personally exchanging information with her client: “But my question was: Did you know of the rule of skiing? At the time of the collision, were you aware of the rule that if you’re in a collision, you need to share your name, your contact information with the person that you’re involved in collision?”
“I don’t think I was aware of the rule,” Paltrow replied.
“Were you aware that there is kind of a common decency to do that?”
“I would not have left the scene without leaving my information,” Paltrow said, and added again that her instructor left her information.
In another exchange, Orman pressed Paltrow on her friendship with Taylor Swift, related to Swift having also sued somebody for a “symbolic” $1. “You’ve never given Ms. Swift personal intimate gifts for Christmas?” she asked, sparking an amused reaction from Paltrow.
