Prince William and Kate were travelling from London to Windsor when the woman, 83, was hurt on Monday.
The accident involved a marked police motorbike in the convoy, and the police watchdog is now investigating.
Kensington Palace said the royal couple were “deeply concerned and saddened” and had been in touch with the woman.
A Kensington Palace spokesperson said: “Their Royal Highnesses have sent their very best wishes to Irene and her family and will stay in touch throughout every stage of her recovery.”
The duke and duchess are understood to have sent flowers to the woman.
Investigation launched
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said it was investigating the circumstances of the collision after it was referred to them by the Metropolitan Police “in line with procedure”.
“Our immediate thoughts are with the injured woman and her family and those affected by the incident.”
Prince William and Kate were on their way to Windsor for the St George’s Chapel service commemorating the Order of the Garter.
