Fashion designer Dan Single has revisited the Hotel Grand D'Amour in Paris, the location where he suffered a near-fatal fall nine years prior. Single, who founded the denim brand Ksubi, introduced his girlfriend, actress Jenna Owen, during the visit.
Single, 48, shared a photo on Instagram featuring himself and Owen, 33, at the hotel. In the image, Owen is seen kissing Single on the cheek. Single captioned the post, "Hot Paris nights w my [heart emoji]." He also posted video clips from Fête de la Musique, France's annual street festival, where he was seen dancing at an outdoor event near the hotel.
It is believed that Single and Owen have been dating for approximately one year. Owen is described as a writer, actress, and comedian, known for her roles in ABC comedy series "Queen of Oz" and "Optics." She is also part of the comedy duo Freudian Nip and has performed at various comedy festivals.
In March 2017, Single fell 35 meters from a balcony at the same Paris hotel. The accident resulted in severe leg injuries, a coma lasting eight days, and multiple surgeries. At the time of the fall, he and his then-wife, model Bambi Northwood-Blyth, were in Paris for a photoshoot. The incident left him with shattered bones from his feet to his hips and pelvis. Single himself described it as a miracle that his spine and brain were not affected.
Following the accident, Single launched a crowdfunding campaign on GoFundMe to raise $250,000 for his recovery, hospital bills, and rehabilitation. The campaign faced significant backlash and public criticism, with some donors contributing small amounts accompanied by negative messages. Single subsequently removed the fundraising page.
He and Northwood-Blyth, who married in 2014, announced their separation in March 2018, a year after the fall.
