Princess Anne, the sister of King Charles III of Britain, has been released from the hospital following her concussion treatment following an accident with a horse at her country residence.
At Gatcombe Park in southwest England on Sunday night, Anne, 73, had a concussion and minor head injuries. She was rushed to a hospital in Bristol.
She was reportedly hit by a horse while strolling around the gated area of the expansive property, which is used for horseback riding.
At the time, the princess’s injuries were deemed compatible with a possible collision from a horse’s head or legs, according to her medical staff.
Known by her other name, the Princess Royal, is a talented equestrian who participated in the 1976 Olympics in Montreal and is renowned for being the most diligent royal.
She rode in Charles’ formal birthday parade earlier this month, and she has stepped in to represent him while he has postponed public appearances due to cancer.
However, the mishap compelled her to postpone her planned trip to Canada and back out of an appearance at a state dinner on Tuesday night for the visiting Japanese Emperor Naruhito.Earlier this week, Tim Laurence, her husband, was spotted leaving Bristol’s Southmead Hospital after seeing his spouse.
He expressed gratitude to the Southmead Hospital medical staff “for their care, expertise, and kindness during my wife’s brief stay.”
Anne was admitted to the hospital “as a precautionary measure for observation and was expected to make a full and swift recovery,” according to a statement from Buckingham Palace on Monday.
