Princess Anne incident

Oh great RosiesMaw
Teach me to eat and post 🙈

It was obvious RosiesMaw

As for Harry and his family. Surely no one can blame them for the health disasters hitting the RF. n(nudges self - don’t be daft, it must be their fault )
I had hoped the 😈😈 might indicate my intended irony

I’m pleased she will get time off to recuperate. Injuries in our mid 70’s take longer to recover from than those in our 50’s

The HOS would undoubtedly have a horde of people working for them, which we would be expected to pay for.

Try doing ad much as PA does and see how arduous it is. Don’t forget how much she does behind the scenes as well as in public. How would you like that at her age?

“Working royal” is a misnomer when work consists of attending banquets, shaking hands and getting photo taken. A phone call counts an “engagement”. I wouldn’t worry that there are 5 of them. Most heads of state are 1 person.

So only 5 working royals for a while, hope she makes a full recovery, quite possibly she has a very bruised face.

RosiesMaw 😅

I really don't see that is necessary for the Royal Family to be all over the place anyway. For their own health and sanity.
It will, however, be saving the country money in terms of protection officers and security.

I have just read that she is “off” Royal Duties for the foreseeable future. That will be a blow to the King and the rest of the “working royals”
Just as well it is the summer when things calm down a bit.
Worrying though.

😈 I do wonder if somebody is sitting in Montecito with the wax dolls and the pins . Who’s next? 😈

Yes! I’m glad she’s feeling better.
It sounds like it was more than just concussion for her to need to stay in so long.
This is the pic that accompanied the news, though I doubt it’s from this morning.
She looks good in red.

It's just been announced that Princess Anne has left hospital.

🤣 🤣

Ah non!

Well, not as much as on the French Royal Family!

*Royal not Total
Grrrrr

Malédiction was the word used.

I was reading in one of the French papers today that maybe there is a curse on the Total Family, a bit like the Grimaldies.

She might appear and be perfectly fit and healthy but she is 73. Healing takes longer the older we get.

I wish her a good recovery.

I think that the doctors are just taking the utmost care of one of our National Treasures..

A broken cheekbone sounds nasty...

A colleague was tending to her horse, a huge but gentle animal, and the next thing she knew was waking up in hospital with her cheekbone broken and concussion. He had swung his massive head around to be sociable - she was found some time later by a stable hand, with her large equine friend standing over her anxiously.

That sounds more likely. I hope Princess Anne wasn’t too badly hurt, though keeping her in hospital makes it sound quite serious.

Princess Anne is clearly not very well or she would have been discharged earlier than this. I can imagine her insisting on it.

Look. I was accused of propagating the Harry/ Meghan bashing ( which, incidentally I have never taken part in) by bringing the subject up. And you are doing the same by constantly dragging this up.

Post references a now withdrawn post, so we're going to take this down.

Reported not riding a horse. Was out walking when the incident occurred.

Princess Anne is in hospital after suffering minor injuries to her head and a concussion after it is believed she was kicked by a horse on her Gatcombe Park estate. The Princess Royal, 73, who competed in equestrian events at the 1972 Olympics, was walking on her Gloucestershire estate on Sunday evening when the incident happened.
