Princess Anne will not be attending the Memorial Day Service in St. John’s next Tuesday.

The palace said on Monday that the the only daughter of the late Queen Elizabeth, had suffered minor injuries and a concussion and is recovering at hospital. The princess’s upcoming engagements have been postponed, which means she will not fly to Canada as planned at the end of the week. Princess Anne had planned on attending the Memorial Day ceremony and repatriation of the unknown soldier on July 1st. Premier Andrew Furey issued a statement yesterday following the news from England.
