King Charles breaks silence after soldier suffers terrifying death at royal horse show

24-year-old Lance Bombardier Ciara Sullivan, known lovingly by friends as “Sully,” died following a devastating accident at the Royal Windsor Horse Show on May 15. Now, King Charles has issued a heartbreaking response.

Ciara was part of the prestigious King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery, a ceremonial military unit famous for its high-speed horseback displays and historic gun carriages.

Moments before the tragedy unfolded, she had been performing in front of members of the Royal Family at the show near Windsor Castle.

According to reports, the young soldier fell from her horse as the troop exited the arena shortly after 7 p.m. Emergency responders rushed to help her, but she sadly died at the scene from her injuries. Police later confirmed the incident is being treated as “unexplained but non-suspicious.”
