Princess Royal has Kate in stitches over horse lorry pregnancy trip tale

The royal women were shown a demonstration of a new Intrapartum Foetal Surveillance tool.

The Princess Royal left midwives and the Duchess of Cambridge in stitches when she recalled fearing one of her babies had become “wedged” when she tripped over in a horse lorry while heavily pregnant.

The Queen’s daughter was chatting to maternity experts during a visit to the new headquarters of her patronage, the Royal College of Midwives (RCM), which is also home to the Royal College for Obstetrics and Gynaecology (RCOG) – and which Kate supports as patron.

The royal women were shown a demonstration of a new Intrapartum Foetal Surveillance tool, which monitors the safety of babies during labour in order alert medical staff to start a delivery if the baby’s head gets stuck in the mother’s pelvis.

“Wedged?” asked Anne, to laughter.

The princess – who is a mother to Peter Phillips, 44, and Zara Tindall, 40 – then told the group how she feared that would happen to her during one of her pregnancies, adding: “I thought, that’s a bit interesting… ended up the right way up though.”

Professor Tim Draycott, vice president of RCOG and Professor of Obstetrics – who was helping to demonstrate the tool, said later: “She said she had tripped over in a horse lorry while heavily pregnant and thought that had happened.”

Lovely to have the Royal seal of approval from Anne Princess Royal.

Think she was impressed with our new merchandise and asked us, “if we needed any new players”, she said, “she was available if she was needed” 👍. Thank you.

Plagued by photographers, chiefly by freelancers, to whom she is big business, Princess Anne once asked a British Press photographer she trusts how much a photograph of herself was worth. He told her that a picture of herself in a bikini, well marketed around the world, would net between £7,000 and £10,000. ‘Right,’ she said, ‘you take it and we’ll go halves.’ She was, to his sorrow, only joking.

Topics on the hour-long talk-back program included the type of horses Princess Anne favoured, what she would have done if not a princess, what she thought of the media and women’s liberation, and what she did with the many gifts she received on official engagements. The Princess revealed that one gift - a display case containing instruments for heart surgery - was kept in her “downstairs loo.” “It keeps people guessing,” she said.
