She won two gold medals in 2012 and another in 2016.
Three-time gold medalist Charlotte Dujardin has abruptly withdrawn from Great Britain’s dressage team after a video emerged that allegedly showed her physically mistreating a horse.
“A video has emerged from four years ago which shows me making an error of judgment during a coaching session,” Dujardin said in a statement.“Understandably, the International Federation for Equestrian Sports is investigating and I have made the decision to withdraw from all competition — including the Paris Olympics — while this process takes place.
“What happened was completely out of character and does not reflect how I train horses or coach my pupils, however there is no excuse. I am deeply ashamed ahnd should have set a better example in that moment.”Omar Minaya's son speaks out on mother's shocking death: 'The only way to describe it'Dujardin, 39, won gold medals in team and individual dressage in 2012 in London, and took home gold in individual dressage in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro.
“I am sincerely sorry for my actions and devastated that I have let everyone down, including Team GB, fans and sponsors,” Dujardin’s statement continued. “I will cooperate fully with the FEI, British Equestrian Federation and British Dressage during their investigations, and will not be commenting further until the process is complete.
