Princess Anne has been notably active, stepping in for her brother at big events, such as commemorating the 80th anniversary of Operation Market Garden in the Second World War. "Anyway, we get to Gatcombe Park, go in and were greeted by Princess Anne who just took one look at me and said, 'Are you OK? ' she could see I had been crying. And I just said 'I'm just so fat! ' and I cried my eyes out and she put her arm around me and sat me down and said 'You look splendid!'
