Prince Ernst August of Hanover Injured

It has been reported by the Austrian and foreign press agencies that HRH Prince Ernst August of Hanover, husband of Princess Caroline of Monaco, is in good condition after suffering an injury to a knee ligament following a fall on Thursday in Schruns, Vorarlberg, Austria.

The Prince is currently in the hospital recovering from surgery after suffering from a “laceration of his quadriceps knee ligament as well as a bruising of his right forearm.” His Royal Highness slipped on ice while exiting a car and is now sporting a plaster cast and preparing for physical therapy.

There has been no confirmation regarding the Princess of Hanover’s attendance or that of her children.
