One of the women in the vehicle hit by Prince Philip in a car crash is speaking out about the incident.
Philip, 97, walked away uninjured after overturning his Land Rover following a collision with a Kia near the royal family’s country estate in Norfolk on Thursday, while 46-year-old Emma Fairweather, who was sitting in the passenger seat, broke her wrist. Additionally, the driver, a 28-year-old woman, suffered cuts to her knee. Her 9-month-old baby, who was in the backseat, was uninjured.
In an interview with the Sunday Mirror, Fairweather said she was disappointed with the royal family because she had yet to receive an apology from Philip.
“I’m lucky to be alive and he hasn’t even said sorry,” Fairweather told the outlet.

Sounds like one of those suzuki jeep type things that would rollover at the least provocation.
I’m surprised he was driving.
Normal protocol would be one of his security detail would be driving, and if not driving, he would be in the vehicle with HRH The Prince Philip.
They do have 24/7 security with him at all times, too include when driving. Security normally drives but if the HRH The Prince Philip insisted, security would be in the front passenger seat. This makes no sense. . .no security?
...It is understood the security team followed in a car behind and arrived ‘very quickly’, but only once Philip had been dragged to safety from his written-off Land Rover...
Isn’t your lawyer telling how exactly how to pro$eed at this point?? This is a full on lottery win here. Play your cards right.
Thanks, I saw that.
However, at least one security guy must be with him in the vehicle.
Some security guys have a lot to answer for. . .
I drove a Rover sterling when I lived in Europe. Easy to drive.
Liz does drive herself sometimes but her security follow. Don’t know about licenses but good question.
The Queen does not need a driver’s license. All other royals do.
At least she drives a proper Range Rover instead of a crappy Freelander!
