Princess Anne Comments on Prince Philip's Condition After Yesterday's Car Accident
Following Prince Philip's car accident yesterday, in which his Land Rover was involved in a collision with another vehicle on the road near Sandringham, Princess Anne is speaking out about her father's condition, but she isn't revealing much.
As the Princess Royal left an engagement in Lancashire this morning, she was asked "Any word on the Duke, your Highness?" She responded with a laugh, "Not since I've been in there."
When asked a similar question about his health walking in to an engagement, she reportedly replied, "I’ve no idea. You know where I am? Same place as you," with a laugh.
Granted, if she did have information regarding her father's health, it's unlikely she would have shared it with the press, but her demeanor seems to indicate he's doing okay.
Princess Anne did cancel an engagement this morning, but the reason given was inclement weather.
As was reported yesterday, the Duke was uninjured in the crash, and has been checked out by a doctor. The driver of the other car, a 28-year-old woman, suffered cuts as a result of the accident, and the passenger sustained a broken wrist. They were both taken the the hospital and have since been discharged. The Norfolk police confirmed today that a 9-month-old baby was also in the car and was uninjured.
The accident is currently under investigation.
“As is standard procedure with injury collisions, the incident will be investigated and any appropriate action taken," the police said in a statement, according to People. "We are aware of the public interest in this case, however, as with any other investigation it would be inappropriate to speculate on the causes of the collision until an investigation is carried out.”
