The family of 22-year-old Gracie Vater, who tragically lost her life in a quad bike accident near King Charles’ Highgrove Estate, has paid a heartfelt tribute to their beloved ‘country girl.’ The incident occurred when Gracie is believed to have fallen off a quad bike, which overturned just after 2 pm on Saturday, December 23.
Gracie was rushed to Southmead Hospital in Bristol with severe injuries but, sadly, she passed away on Christmas Day, according to Gloucestershire Constabulary’s statement on Wednesday. The accident unfolded on Whitehouse Lane in the Cotswolds village of Shipton Moyne, near Tetbury, a location less than two miles away from Highgrove House, a favoured residence of Prince Charles and Camilla.
