Team GB Medallist Charlotte Dujardin Banned and Faces Backlash Over Horse Whipping Video
Jul 24, 2024, 10:37 AM
Charlotte Dujardin, the Olympic champion equestrian and Team GB medallist, faces significant backlash following a video showing her whipping her horse more than 24 times in one minute. The video, which aired on Good Morning Britain, led to the FEI provisionally suspending and banning Dujardin for transgressing accepted standards of horse welfare. Dujardin's fiancé has broken his silence on the matter, while UK Sport expressed their disturbance over the serious concerns raised. World Horse Welfare charity called the controversy a 'massive wake-up call,' emphasizing the need for respect for horses. Dujardin has publicly apologized, stating she is deeply ashamed and that the incident does not reflect her usual training methods.
