Team Great Britain equestrian star Charlotte Dujardin has been banned from the 2024 Paris Olympics after footage surfaced of her beating a horse.

The video shows Dujardin whipping a horse "24 times" during a private coaching session, which cost her a damehood in addition to public funding, per 'The Telegraph.'

The 39-year-old needed just one medal in Paris to earn the top spot as Britain's most accomplished female Olympian. However, the backlash has left her career in shambles.

The footage — which shows Dujardin casually excessively whipping the trotting horse — rendered her banned, in addition to a six-month suspension imposed by the International Federation for Equestrian Sports.

The athlete admitted that she was "deeply ashamed" and that there's "no excuse" for her behavior and error in judgment. "What happened was completely out of character and does not reflect how I train my horses or coach my pupils, however there is no excuse," she explained. "I am deeply ashamed and should have set a better example in that moment."

In addition to acknowledging the horrific behavior, Dujardin claimed that she seeks to "cooperate fully" with the FEI and won't provide any further commentary until the process is complete.

"On 22 July 2024, the FEI received a video depicting Ms Dujardin engaging in conduct contrary to the principles of horse welfare," the organization stated per 'The Guardian.' "This video was submitted to the FEI by a lawyer representing an undisclosed complainant."

FEI president Ingmar De Vos claimed the government body had no choice but to take action given the seriousness of the footage and allegations. "It is our responsibility and crucial that we address any instances of abuse, as equine welfare cannot be compromised," he said.

The dressage rider has won six Olympic medals, including two gold in London 2012 and a third in Rio 2016.
