After receiving a preliminary six-month suspension from the Federation for Equestrian Sports (FEI), Dujardin will not only not compete at the Olympics, but she will also not participate in any contests for the foreseeable future.
The Daily Mail reports that Dean Wyatt-Golding, who is engaged to Dujardin, addressed the issue outside their home. However, he mostly referred them to what Dujardin had already stated.
I am unable to go more beyond what Charlotte has already said,” he said. Watching events unfold is our only option.
Wyatt-Golding said that his fiancé was ‘clearly collaborating with the equestrian authorities for now,’ and that the family ‘had no clue’ how the video—which Dujardin claimed was ‘from four years ago’—had gotten around.
According to Dujardin’s remark that he mentioned before, a video from four years ago shows him making a mistake during a coaching session.
“As you can expect, the FEI is looking into this, and I’ve decided to sit out all competitions, including the Paris Olympics, while they do their job.
