Britain's Princess Anne has been discharged from the hospital after sustaining a concussion and minor injuries from a horse-related incident last weekend. The Princess Royal is now recovering at her Gatcombe Park country home.
The royal family gathered in London on Saturday for the annual Trooping the Colour parade, an event that celebrates the monarch's birthday. While the festivities were generally cheerful, there were concerns about the absence of Princess Anne, the only daughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.
On Sunday, it was revealed that Princess Anne had been injured in a horse-related incident on her estate in southwestern England. She was admitted to the hospital on Monday as a precautionary measure, with Buckingham Palace stating that she had suffered a concussion and minor injuries.

The Princess Royal's husband, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, released a statement thanking the medical team at Southmead Hospital for their care. He added that the princess is recovering well and is deeply touched by the messages of support she has received.
Princess Anne is an experienced equestrian and has competed in equestrian events for many years. She was praised for her horsemanship during Trooping the Colour in 2021, when she expertly navigated a jittery horse during the military parade in London.

Princess Anne's absence from Trooping the Colour was noticeable, but it is expected that she will resume her royal duties once she has fully recovered. The royal family has been sending their support to the princess, and King Charles III has been kept closely informed of her condition.
The incident has served as a reminder of the risks involved in equestrian sports. Princess Anne is not the first royal to suffer an injury while riding. In 2019, Prince Charles fell from a horse during a polo match.
