Hi Royal Clubbers, it’s Iona here.
Firstly, here’s the best of the royal coverage over on HELLO! today.
Princess Anne dubbed the ‘absolute brick’ of the royal family
Princess Beatrice faces ‘rare’ health risk at £3.5m country home poised for Sarah Ferguson
Zara Tindall’s £9k icy blue bracelet is the Christmas bling I need ASAP
Why is Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor still in the line of succession?
Princess Catherine’s humble Christmas jumper is the royal approach to festive dressing
And the results are in…
Yesterday, I asked if you liked Zara’s mini-dress, and 78 per cent of you said yes!
As the Christmas party season approaches, I think the royals offer a great lookbook of inspiration. Like the dress Zara wore, it is very classy and chic and features just the right amount of Christmas sparkle.
Poll of the day
As you will have read, Princess Anne was called the “absolute brick” of the royal family by an ex-servicewoman at a Christmas tea party.
When I started at HELLO!, I did not know too much about Princess Anne. But I have to say, from her fashion eras to her many royal engagements and her warm nature, I think she is an essential part of the monarchy.
I have had the chance to write about her often, and when I do, the coverage is always filled with positivity, and you can tell she is a very genuine soul.
Do you agree with the comment made?
And let me know in the comments if you have any favourite Princess Anne moments!
Picture of the day
Isn’t this a heartwarming picture? In the photo is Princess Anne and Mrs Barron, aged 101, one of the guests at a Christmas tea party held at St James’s Palace.
I admire the interior looking very Christmassy and cosy, and I’m intrigued to see even more festive events for the royals across the next few weeks…
