The 52-year-old shared the news alongside a photo of nurses at a hospital in the United States to Instagram on Friday and thanked local restaurants for preparing the meals.

She added: ‘We’d also like to thank the local restaurants who have helped to prepare these wonderful meals.’

She also thanked actress Kerry Washington as well as the cast of Scandal, who have also donated to front line workers, ‘for being such an inspiration to us’.

The number of people who have died of the coronavirus in the US has now topped 95,000, while the number of cases in the country hit 1.6 million on Friday. 

Nicole’s post comes after her husband Keith Urban revealed the actress broke her ankle while self-isolating at home in Nashville, Tennessee.

After a photo of the Moulin Rouge! star wearing a walking cast had sparked concern among fans, her husband revealed the cause of the mystery injury.

‘She broke her ankle, but she’s a trooper,’ Keith, 52, told ET on Saturday, just one day after Nicole was spotted wearing the cast at his drive-in concert.

Keith added: ‘There she was last night among all of the folks, hobbling around on her boot with her mask on.’

Nicole was pictured with the large walking cast over her right leg on Friday at Keith’s concert for frontline healthcare workers at the Stardust Drive-In movie theatre, about 64 kilometres (40 miles) outside of Nashville.

It was the first time she and her husband had been seen in public for weeks.

Fans expressed their concern over the mystery injury, after the photo of Nicole was widely shared on Instagram. 

‘Hope you are not in pain. Get well Nicole,’ one fan commented, while another asked: ‘What’s happened to Nicole’s foot?’
