Princess Anne suffering memory loss after horse incident
People reports Princess Anne is suffering memory loss after her horse injury. Her injuries are consistent with a potential impact from a horse's head or legs, according to the news outlet.
King Charles' sister has spent 2 nights at the hospital. Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence commented on his wife's health: "She is recovering well, thank you."
"We are both profoundly grateful to the medical team and hospital support staff for their expert care — and to the emergency services who were all so wonderful at the scene," he said according to People.
The Princess Royal suffered ‘minor injuries’ after an incident at home on Sunday evening, Buckingham Palace confirmed.
The statement released by the royal-uk webpage on Monday June 24 explained that Princess Anne had also suffered ‘concussion’ from the event that took place the evening before.
It happened at her home, at Gatcombe park. It is a 700 acre estate where she has lived since 1976 after it was gifted to her as a wedding present upon marrying her first husband, Mark Phillips.
At her estate, the King’s sister has a number of horses residing in stables. Princess Anne has always had a very strong affiliation to horses, being a strong rider and taking part in equestrian events. It is understood her injuries come from a horse.
The Princess is a well-practised horse rider and was also the first royal to compete in the Olympic Games in Montreal in 1976 (pictured).
As the statement read, she remains in a Bristol hospital for observation as a 'precautionary measure’. The palace further confirmed that she is under observation but that her injuries are ‘minor’.
Buckingham Palace confirmed that she is ‘expected to make a full and swift recovery’.
‘The King has been kept closely informed and joins the whole Royal Family in sending his fondest love and well-wishes to The Princess for a speedy recovery’, the statement concluded.
"Do you expect her out today, Sir?" a reporter asked from ITV on a video posted on X.
"She'll be out when she's ready," Sir Tim replied, letting the public know the Princess Royal will recover completely before she leaves the care of professionals.
