Woman, 83, in hospital after William and Kate convoy crash
An elderly woman is in a serious condition in hospital after a road accident involving the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's police escort.
Prince William and Kate were travelling from London to Windsor when the woman, 83, was hurt on Monday.
The accident involved a marked police motorbike in the convoy, and the police watchdog is now investigating.
Kensington Palace said the royal couple are "deeply concerned and saddened" and have been in touch with the woman.
The woman - who is called Irene, according to the palace - was taken to hospital in a critical condition following the collision on Upper Richmond Road in Richmond, south-west London at around 12:50 BST on 17 June.
She is now in a serious but stable condition in hospital.
A Kensington Palace spokesperson said: "Their Royal Highnesses have sent their very best wishes to Irene and her family and will stay in touch throughout every stage of her recovery."
The duke and duchess are understood to have sent flowers to the woman.
