One of Team GB’s biggest stars, Charlotte Dujardin, has been banned from the Paris Olympics over allegations that she whipped a horse “24 times … like an elephant in a circus”.
The 39-year-old, who won six dressage Olympic medals in London, Rio and Tokyo, has been suspended after a video emerged of the incident that occurred when she conducted a coaching session to a young rider in a private stable several years ago.
