Royal Family News – Princess Anne Is A Hard Worker
Apparently Princess Anne was not pleased when the late Princess Diana choose to miss her daughter Zara Tindall’s christening.
Anne has a reputation as a hard working royal, and a woman who brooks no nonsense. She is set to be in France next month where she will meet with members of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Anne is a member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) which makes perfect sense since the accomplished equestrian won a place to compete in the 1976 Montreal Olympics as a three-day eventer.

Princess Anne has spent her lifetime attending royal events and she reportedly blew a gasket when her ex-SIL Princess Diana skipped the christening of her newborn daughter Zara.
Royal expert Ingrid Seward chronicled the dispute in her book, Prince Edward. She wrote, “Such occasions are a cornerstone of the Royal Family’s routine, and essential part of the theatricality of their brand of monarchy; a moment when the whole family is on parade.”
“Diana, however, chose not to attend. She had been telling friends beforehand that she had no intention of going but, rather through a failure of manners or courage, it was not until 48 hours before the actual ceremony that she telephoned Princess Anne to inform her that she would not be there.”

Why did Princess Diana not attend the royal event? According to Seward, “Her excuse was that she was too busy preparing for the wedding ball that was being held in her honor that night. The tone of Anne’s response would have chilled the Arctic.”
However, after the event, it was reported that Diana refused to go because Camilla Parker Bowles would be in attendance. Camilla is now Prince Charles’ second wife and in line to be queen consort when her day in the sun comes.
Making matters worse, it’s been reported that at the time of Zara’s christening, Charles gifted Camilla with a pricey bracelet.
