Julia Samuel, known as Prince George’s godmother, recently faced a serious injury while enjoying a skiing holiday with her family in the picturesque French Alps.
The renowned psychotherapist took to social media to share the unfortunate incident where she suffered a significant shoulder injury after a fall on the icy slopes.
In a heartfelt Instagram video, she revealed the mishap, humorously mentioning that her granddaughter was behind the camera capturing the unexpected turn of events.
Despite the setback, Julia displayed resilience, stating, “I have 10 nails in it and I can’t move much.”
The news of Julia Samuel’s skiing accident has garnered widespread attention, especially from fans and well-wishers who flooded her social media post with messages of support and a speedy recovery.
As one of Prince George’s seven godparents, Julia holds a special place within the British Royal Family circle.
Her close bond with the late Princess Diana, whom she also served as a therapist, adds a poignant layer to her relationship with the royal household.
Reflecting on her role as Prince George’s godmother, Julia Samuel expressed gratitude for the opportunity to continue Princess Diana’s legacy of love and care through her godson.
In a candid interview with The Observer, she fondly shared, “Well, I feel lucky that I was a good friend of Princess Diana and I really love my godson, George.
This is a wonderful way to love her.”
Her affection for the young prince shines through as she described him as “amazing, funny, feisty, and sassy,” qualities that she believes Princess Diana would have adored.
Julia Samuel’s dedication to preserving Princess Diana’s memory extends beyond her role as a godparent, as she playfully reminisced about gifting George toys that mirror the mischievous spirit of his late grandmother.
Recalling Princess Diana’s penchant for giving presents that required intricate assembly, Julia shared her own twist on the tradition by presenting George with toys that are “really annoying and require a lot of making.”
She chuckled, “Then you put all the machines together and they make horrible noises and the lights flash and all that.
It makes me laugh and makes George laugh.”
