Eve Jobs’ Olympic gold medal-winning showjumper husband reportedly leapt off his horse and became involved in a furious row with a stable worker during a competition in Qatar.
Harry Charles, 26, jumped off his mount and confronted the worker after the groom working for Saudi Arabian equestrian Abdullah Al-Sharbatly allegedly pushed his father Peter during a warm up.
The clash took place at a show jumping Grand Prix in Al Shaqab in Doha, Qatar, and is under investigation by the Federation Equestre Internationale, the sports’ governing body.
It happened in front of Harry’s wife Eve Jobs, whose father was the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
Video of the bust up shows him and the groom surrounded by team-mates and officials in the ring.
Harry and another showjumper can see angrily gesturing during the altercation before storming out of the arena.
A source said: ‘Harry jumped off the horse and launched at the groom, leaving Harry’s horse loose. It’s big news here.’
They told The Sun it began after Peter Charles, 66, who won a gold medal for Equestrian at the London 2012 Olympics, wanted to practice with one style of fence, while Mr Al-Sharbatly’s team wanted to use another.

Harry’s father, who trains horses at the family’s Heathcroft Farm, played down the scuffle.
He said: ‘It’s a good tour and we’re having a great time.’
But Egyptian equestrian Abel Said branded it a ‘boxing match of colleagues’ and said it disrupted his warm up and unsettled his horse.
‘It’s deeply frustrating and sad to witness situations like this in our sport, especially at this level.
‘There must be far greater respect between riders and teams. Frankly, it’s appalling.
But the source added: ‘It wasn’t a boxing match. Harry came down to protect his dad.’
Harry has been contacted for comment.
Eve, 27, a model and keen showjumper, married Harry in a lavish four-day wedding said to cost £5million.

Guests, which included, star chef Baroness Ruth Rogers, Bill Gates’s daughter, Jessica as well Roman Abramovich’s daughter, Sofia, arrived in a stream of luxury minibuses.
