Zara Phillips’ Paparazzi Outburst Posted by BRW on May 9th, 2009 at 2:56 am
Zara Phillips has let rip at paparazzi who have been hounding her at the Badminton Horse Trials. The Daily Mail has the story…
117 Comments »She raged at the press pack following her: ‘This is a competition, not a ****ing social event!’
Her outburst came the day after a member of the paparazzi allegedly caused her horse, Ardfield Magic Star, to rear as she entered the dressage arena.
After getting the message off her chest she did, however, offer a half-hearted apology.
‘I’m not blaming you, it’s just people like that [the paparazzi] who give you lot a bad name,’ she said, then offered a wave.Her mood was further lightened later when she came ninth in the dressage event on her other horse, Toytown.
