She expressed deep remorse for the pain she caused and stated that Harry is always on her mind. The US State Department granted her diplomatic immunity, allowing her to leave the UK shortly after the collision.

Despite declining to give live evidence at the inquest, she provided written statements and cooperated with the investigation.
