British equestrian rider Georgie Campbell, aged 37, tragically died after falling from her horse, Global Quest, during a competition at the Bicton International Horse Trials in Devon, England. Despite immediate medical attention, she could not be saved. The horse was uninjured and walked back to the stable.

Campbell had a successful career, competing in over 200 events and representing Great Britain in the Nations Cup series. She leaves behind her husband, fellow horse rider Jesse Campbell, who competed for New Zealand at the Tokyo Olympics. The family has requested privacy during this difficult time, and no further details have been shared.
