Prince Harry has suffered a spectacular fall from his horse during a polo match in Santa Barbara, a week after returning from the UK.
Prince Harry fell off his horse during a polo match in California on Friday, less than a week after returning to the United States from his grandmother, the queen’s platinum jubilee.
Photographs captured the 37-year-old Duke of Sussex lying on the ground after falling into the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club and other polo players approached to help him. New York Post reports.
But the king quickly regained his composure, brushed up and rode another horse to end the game, that of the United Kingdom. Subway reported.
His wife Meghan Markle did not attend the match.
Prince Los Padres’ team lost the match, during which witnesses said that Harry went through three horses, the Independent reported.
The Duke’s fall came less than a week after the couple returned from their first official visit to the UK since leaving the royal family in 2020.
The couple was booed during their only official appearance during the trip.
Harry was depressed when he was photographed returning to his new home in Santa Barbara, California on June 5th.
The family had left England by private jet before the Queen made her last appearance at the celebrations marking her historic 70-year reign.
During their brief journey, Harry and Meghan remained mostly behind the scenes, only making an official appearance at St. Paul’s Cathedral, where they remained especially separated from the royal family, including Harry’s close brother William.
The couple’s children, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1, were not seen in public.
