Recently, Princess Anne made her stunning comeback at the Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) National Championships in Gloucestershire. This comes after a dramatic horse accident at her Gatcombe Park estate, which landed her in the hospital. Despite the situation, the royal revealed that she has no recollection of the incident that left her with head injuries.

Flashback to June: it all occurred on the 23rd during a casual evening walk. Her medical team suspects her injuries resulted from a collision with a horse’s leg or head. After that, Princess Anne spent five nights in the hospital and was discharged on June 28 for some much-needed rest. However, as soon as she got out of the car for the event, she said:
“I can’t remember a single thing about it.”
Despite this health scare, the event marks the Princess’ first public appearance! The RDA National Championships is a premier event for disabled equestrians held at Hartpury University and College. Over 3 days, participants compete in dressage, vaulting, endurance showjumping, carriage driving, and more.
