Happy Mother’s Day! 💐💞🍰

“Her advice generally about life has been invaluable. Whenever we may have got slightly above our station she'd be the first one to bring us back down to earth." Peter Phillips

“I look at her and just think if I was going to be a mother, that's what I would want to be like. I would like to be as good a mother as she has been to us." Zara Phillips

“I was fortunate to share the last 24 hours of my dearest Mother’s life. It has been an honour and a privilege to accompany her on her final journeys. Witnessing the love and respect shown by so many on these journeys has been both humbling and uplifting. We will all share unique memories. I offer my thanks to each and every one who share our sense of loss. We may have been reminded how much of her presence and contribution to our national identity we took for granted. I am also so grateful for the support and understanding offered to my dear brother Charles as he accepts the added responsibilities of The Monarch. To my mother, The Queen, thank you.” - Princess Anne after the death of her mother, Queen Elizabeth II

Was there a interview with Tim's mom regarding the engagement of her son to Anne or marriage

There was! A journalist (Jennie Bond I imagine since it’s her report) phoned her up and she spoke about it. There was probably more to the call, but it’s included here
