When Prince William was born in 1982, the nation was filled with excitement - but his aunt, Princess Anne, had a very different reaction to the birth of her nephew
In the aftermath of Prince William's birth, Royal enthusiasts across the nation were quick to extend their congratulations; yet Princess Anne was noted for her typically sharp-tongued reply.
Indeed, 20 year old Diana's magnetism was such that her eldest son's entrance into the world prompted scenes filled with exuberance, as many sensed a profound connection to the reserved young princess. Nevertheless, Princess Anne, whose rapport with her fashionable sister-in-law was rumoured to be quite intricate, offered a decidedly cooler response.
One insider divulged: "Anne works very hard and sees her sister-in-law picking up the glory. She's sick to her back teeth with it all." The two Royal women were indeed very different in temperament and interests, and reports would suggest a personality clash behind palace walls. In the eye-opening Channel 5 documentary Paxman on the Queen's Children, Royal author Richard Kay shed some light on why the sisters-in-law didn't always see eye-to-eye.
