Why You Want to Have Tea with Her:

• Princess Anne is the The Queen’s only daughter and her second-born child. Known as the “hardest working royal” she has regularly outpaced every other member of the family in terms of the number of engagements she does. An avid horsewoman, she was an Olympic equestrian in the 1976 games in Montreal, which I love as a shared passion with both The Queen, who regularly rides and has raised many championship horses, and her own daughter Zara, who won a Silver Medal at the London Olympics, which Anne presented to her. As a young woman, she also survived an attempted KIDNAPPING, where she was famously polite to the kidnappers until they ripped her dress. Fashion-wise, Princess Anne is famous within the royal fandom for re-wearing looks over decades - an icon of classic style. Finally, I think we can all agree that The Princess Royal is the best title, right?!

Essential read: Vanity Fair recently wrote an amazing profile on her that is the cover story for the May 2020 issue!
