- In this special interview Charlotte Dujardin talks frankly about her life and her sport - the massive highs and crashing lows - and why she is still as hungry as ever for future medals and success.
We find out how her nerves nearly got the better of her at Rio, and why being offered a job as a groom for Carl Hester 14 years ago changed her life forever.
Charles Owen are proud to work with some the of the biggest names in equestrian sport, and they don’t come much bigger than Charlotte Dujardin.
The 35-year-old dressage superstar, won the hearts of the British public at London 2012 with her 'dancing horse' Valegro on whom she won double Olympic gold.
The pair went on to become both World and European champions, break numerous records, and win a further gold and team silver at the Rio Olympics.
When I first laid eyes on you and Pumpkin Gio together in the dressage ring in Tokyo, I was entranced. You were magical together! I never had a thought of his size until people mentioned it. I blew them off. You were absolutely right to choose him - you had your feeling - and you chose each other. I simply loved him. You were powerful, etherial, joyous together. Let no one change your mind ( like they could!) because he is not 18.2 hands tall. Give Pumpkin Gio a kiss from me? Best of luck and much happiness together !
Charlotte you are great!🙂😊👍
How did Charlotte eliminated Valegros head shaking?
If you read her book she explains it
Great question!! And how wonderful that she did..!!!
… and then the truth came out. Horse-whipping to punish a horse and get it to follow your commands. Arrogance appears to have eroded Charlotte’s love for horses. The video shows she is adept at whipping the horse. It’s very distressing to watch. She has damaged the sport and ruined her own future due to her arrogance.
OMG those earrings are loud.
