Amid the series of troubling health conditions of the British royal family Princess Anne’s health condition became a reason for concern. As per the several reports the Princess Royal who is the sister of King Charles is suffering from memory loss following an accident at her country home over the weekend. Anne was instantly hospitalized with a concussion. However, the royal correspondent Katie Nicholl revealed a sign of relief as there is “no suggestion that this is long-term memory loss.” Let’s check out the complete details of this story.
Royal correspondent Katie Nicholl suggestion that this is long-term memory loss
Nicholl shared with Entertainment Tonight, “All we understand is that she cannot remember the incident. Obviously she has been asked about what happened and she simply can’t remember, which suggests that she probably blacked out at the time of the event. but there is no suggestion that this memory loss is anything more than immediately around what happened.”
“She has been in [the hospital] since Sunday night. She is still under surveillance and I think that suggests that they’re not going to take any chances,” she continues. “They want to make sure that she is absolutely stable and well enough to go home and they did give guidance — the palace gave us guidance that she would be likely to spend most of this week in hospital, so I think the hope is that she will be discharged before the weekend.”
Previously the princess surrfred horse-related injury for the longtime equestrian fall while competing in the 1976 Olympics. “It’s worth pointing out that she’s had some pretty hairy experiences,” the correspondent said. “She’s been thrown from her horse. She’s taken a few knocks. She’s been knocked unconscious off her horse before.”
“I think we have to hope that this is nothing too serious for Princess Anne,” Nicholl shared. “We understand that she will be discharged later on this week and hopefully will be back on a horse again in the not too distant future, but this has felt like a very difficult time for the royal family and I think in all of this it highlights that, yes, they are the royal family — the king, the queen, the head of state — but also they are just normal people. The cancer has been a great leveler. And as every family knows, there will be accidents. It does just feel that a lot has come all in one go.”
On July 1, a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace shared the news that the 73-year-old royal suffered injuries at her Gatcombe Park estate in a statement.
The statement noted, “Her Royal Highness remains in Southmead Hospital, Bristol, as a precautionary measure for observation and 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.”
