Ali Hewson was vacationing with the U2 singer in Costa Rica when she reportedly fell from a quad bike on the beach and broke her ribs.
It has also been claimed the fashion designer broke a leg in the fall.
Bono, 53, and Ali, 52 – who married in 1982 and have four children together -  have been staying near Cobano de Puntarenas, on the Pacific coast of the Central America country since February 11.
U2 – which also includes The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen -  completed their 360 Degree tour, the highest grossing of all time, in 2011, and then took time off to rest and recuperate.


During this time Bono took his family on a round-the-world trip of the world’s most spiritual regions and spent a great deal of time in Central America.
He previously said: ‘Because I wasn’t busy with the band we kind of went wandering. Once in a lifetime sort of stuff, places like Africa and Central America.
We also went to Jordan and Israel and Peru. It was really great to have time off.
The singer – whose real name is Paul Hewson – recently revealed U2 are working on their 13th studio album – with  the working title ’10 Reasons To Exist’ – which will be their first release since 2009′s ‘No Line on the Horizon‘.
He said: ‘U2 have been back and they’re really in fine fettle.
They’re mad for it at the moment and they really want to make a new record. And they don’t care if it takes ten years – they don’t care if it never happens again, they just want to get it right.
Within the band we’ve been calling it ’10 Reasons To Exist’ – but I will tell you we might have at least six of them.
