A woman has been hospitalized after sustaining serious injuries following an accident involving Prince William and Kate Middleton's convoy in London.

William and Kate were traveling from London to Windsor on Monday when the incident took place on Upper Richmond Road in Richmond, BBC reported.

A spokesperson for Independent Office for Police Conduct explained to The Telegraphthat a police motorcycle was involved in a collision with "a woman pedestrian."

"The woman, in her 80s, suffered serious injuries and was taken to a London hospital where she remains in a serious but stable condition," IOPC told The Telegraph.

At this time, the IOPC is investigating the incident.

"We are investigating the circumstances surrounding a collision involving a marked police motorcycle attached to the Royalty and Specialist Protection Command and a woman pedestrian on Upper Richmond Road, Richmond, south west London at 12:50 p.m. on Monday 17 June," IOPC said to The Telegraph.

A witness told The Sun, "His bike hit her and she spun round, off her feet and fell badly on the floor."

The injured woman has been identified as Irene Mayor, 83. Irene's daughter Fiona told The Sun, that her mother has "got lots of injuries. They are just keeping her stable at the moment."

Kate and William have since sent their well wishes to Irene.
