前段时间,英国女王97岁的丈夫菲利普亲王出车祸翻车一事,可以说是闹得沸沸扬扬。
虽然车祸现场看起来触目惊心,但亲王本人却毫发无损,而车祸中另一辆起亚车的两位女乘客则分别撞断了手腕以及膝盖受到轻伤。
虽然事后,女王的一名工作人员与伤者取得了联系,但事故中撞断手腕的女乘客艾玛·费尔韦瑟却在受访时表示,对这样的处理方式感到不满:因为亲王本人根本没道歉啊!(事件回顾)
而这两天,深陷舆论风波的老亲王终于向伤者写信道歉了↓↓↓
他在信中对费尔韦瑟女士表达了深深的歉意,并且还解释了事故发生的原因:当时阳光太刺眼,害我翻了车。
Prince Philip has finally written a letter to the mother of two he injured in a car crash, admitting that the collision was his fault.
The 97-year-old – who looked less than happy as he was chauffeured about near the estate on Jan 26 – was driving a Land Rover Freelander when it hit a Kia carrying two women and a nine-month-old baby on January 17.
However, despite the legal uncertainty, Prince Philip wrote a letter to Emma Fairweather who broke her wrist in the accident, to say he was sorry and had been dazzled by the 'low sun'.
受伤的女乘客费尔韦瑟在收到信后感到很开心,认为老亲王的这封信很有人情味。
“I thought it was really nice that he signed off as "Philip" and not the formal title. I was pleasantly surprised because of the personalised nature.”
“我认为他用‘菲利普’而不是他的正式头衔署名这点很赞。我对这封充满人情味的信感到很惊喜。”
不过呢,这事儿还没完,英国警方目前仍在对老亲王的这起车祸进行调查,要等下周调查完毕后才能确定是否起诉亲王。
而让不少人大吃一惊的是,女王和亲王这老两口在事故发生后没多久,便双双再次不系安全带开车上路……
老亲王的这波硬核操作也get了警方的警告……
不过,翻开过去的老照片,英王室似乎还真不太有开车系安全带的习惯……
首先,女王和亲王老两口开车是不太爱系安全带的↓↓↓
自己开车不系……
载着人也不系……
而到了查尔斯王子这一代,女王的儿女们一开始也不太爱系安全带↓↓↓
不过年纪大了之后,似乎慢慢地也都系上了……
而到了女王的孙辈,大家似乎都有了系安全带的共识!
单独开车要系……
载着爱妻要系……
车上有娃当然更要系!
(坐上了不系安全带的老司机·女王的车,孙媳妇凯特当然还是默默地系上了安全带↓↓↓)
感觉,只有在结婚时,英王室的小辈们才破例不系安全带,潇洒走一回~
果然,英女王老两口,带你见识什么是真·硬核·老司机……
