This disclosure provides a supporting structure disposed at a side of the flexible display panel and at least including a first bendable region, and a display device. A bending axis corresponding to the first bendable region extends in a first direction. The first bendable region has a plurality of first primary bending regions and a plurality of first deformation compensation regions alternately arranged in the first direction. The first primary bending region includes a plurality of first primary strip-shaped holes arranged in an array, and the first primary strip-shaped holes extend in the first direction. The first deformation compensation region includes a plurality of groups of first hollowed-out patterns arranged in an array. Each group of first hollowed-out patterns is formed by combining a plurality of hollowed-out holes, and at least two of the plurality of hollowed-out holes are different in a shape or an extending direction.
