In the life of all more or less famous people, there is one terrible attack. This attack is the paparazzi, brazenly appearing at the most inappropriate places and times. In the history of show business, there are many cases when, through the fault of would-be photographers, there were fights, accidents and other unpleasant incidents. One of these incidents occurred the other day in the United States with a representative of the Royal House of Sweden.

The Queen of Sweden, Sylvia, sprained her leg, trying to hide from the photographer who was pursuing her. The incident took place during Her Majesty's visit to New York. The Queen, along with one of her daughters, Princess Madeleine, was in a clothing store on Madison Avenue. The paparazzi settled down at the exit of the store and began taking pictures of Sylvia, ignoring requests to stop filming.

The photographer that injured Sylvia was reportedly hired by the Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet. But as a rule, Her Majesty's persona does not arouse unhealthy interest in the press. “Queen Sylvia is an elegant and well-mannered woman who fulfills her duties very well. But maybe a little boring. Therefore, we rarely write about her, - once said a secular observer for the Daily Mirror.

In the end, the queen decided to leave the store through the back door. Making her way to the waiting car, the queen stumbled, fell and injured her leg and wrist. The injury did not prevent Sylvia from attending the scheduled events. However, witnesses claim that the queen had to use a cane when walking.

Recall that the wife of the Swedish monarch performs not only representative functions. Sylvia is the founder of several charitable foundations to support children and protect their rights, and is actively involved in the movement to help people with developmental disabilities. The Queen is also the head of the special organization Royal Marriages, which supports scientific research in the field of sports for people with disabilities.
