Princess Anne thanked those who sent her “kind” messages following the sad news of the death of her father, Prince Phillip.
The royal joined other members of her family on 17 April to bid farewell to her father at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. There’s no denying that Princess Anne had a special place in her father’s heart – with many claiming that she was his favourite child.
Following the death of her father on 9 April, the royal princess paid an emotional tribute to her father. Her statement read: “You know it’s going to happen but you are never really ready. My father has been my teacher, my supporter and my critic, but mostly it is his example of a life well-lived and service freely given that I most wanted to emulate.”
The royal princess signed off with a message of Gratitude to royal fans who shared their appreciation for her father over the last few days.
