THE PRINCESS ROYAL, PRINCESS ANNE (b. 15 August 1950) for @leonisandmurex

Princess Royal is a title customarily (but not automatically) awarded by British monarchs to their eldest daughters. Although purely honorary, it is the highest honour that may be given to a female member of the royal family. There have been seven Princesses Royal; Princess Anne became Princess Royal in 1987. The title Princess Royal came into existence when Queen Henrietta Maria (1609–1669), daughter of Henry IV, King of France, and wife of King Charles I (1600–1649), wanted to imitate the way the eldest daughter of the King of France was styled "Madame Royale". Thus, Princess Mary (born 1631), the daughter of Henrietta Maria and Charles, became the first Princess Royal in 1642. The title is held for life, even if the holder outlives her parent the monarch.

THE PRINCESS ROYAL, PRINCESS ANNE (b. 15 August 1950) for @leonisandmurex

She was too much of a warrior to be considered a princess. She never cared for the crown, she preferred a sword.

How do I even begin to explain Princess Anne?

Day 5 - Favourite “one off” anniversary (jubilee, VE day)

The 2022 Platty Joob was very special to me. It helped me feel nostalgic for the "old days" of royal watching. We got 4 straight days of Catherine, a surprise George and Charlotte engagement, two "events", two balcony appearances... It was the final hurrah for the Duchess of Cambridge. And the full body chills I got when I read Roya's tweet will never be recreated.
