Princess Anne experienced a serious accident last month, leading to several days in the hospital after being airlifted from her Gatcombe Park home.
While details are scarce, it is known that Anne “sustained minor injuries and a concussion,” possibly from being struck by a horse while walking on her estate.
In an episode of “A Right Royal Podcast,” hosts Andrea Caamano, Emmy Griffiths, and Emily Nash spoke with Sky’s Royal Correspondent Rhiannon Mills about the incident, which has temporarily sidelined the Princess Royal from her duties as she recuperates.
Rhiannon recounts the days following Anne’s hospitalization and recalls Prince William discussing the incident with the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh.
“I don’t know whether you spotted this, because you may not have seen this footage, but at the State Visit, there was the moment where the King and the Queen were showing the Emperor and Empress a variety of things from the Royal Collection, and over their shoulder, I was watching the footage back, and you could see this little group that was the Duchess of Edinburgh, the Duke of Edinburgh, and Prince William in the middle, and they seem to be having this quite intense conversation,” Rhiannon explained.
Rhiannon added: “Then all of a sudden, Prince William almost whacked himself in the face, and I thought, ‘Oh, hang on, they were talking about Anne.’ Now, look, I haven’t had it confirmed, but it was literally the day after. It looked pretty much like they were talking about it.”
