Buckingham Palace has been rocked by another health woe hitting the royal family.
On Monday, the palace announced that Princess Anne sustained minor injuries and a concussion after an incident on the Gatcombe Park estate in southwest England. Her medical team said her head injuries were consistent with an impact from a horse’s head or legs.
"Princess Anne’s injury is particularly unfortunate in light of the king and the Princess of Wales’ ongoing cancer treatment and recuperation period," British broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard told Fox News Digital.
Princess Anne’s upcoming engagements have been canceled as she is being monitored at the hospital as a precautionary measure," said Chard. "She is comfortable and expected to make a full and swift recovery. However, I have to say it is not a good look having three senior working members of the royal family out of action."
"Princess Anne is also King Charles’ right-hand woman," Chard continued. "She supports King Charles and knows exactly what is expected from her. … They both have a special understanding of the monarchy, having worked together as working royals from a young age."
Emergency services were called to the estate and the king’s younger sister was treated at the scene before being transferred to Southmead Hospital in Bristol. Her husband, Vice Adm. Tim Laurence, accompanied her.
