The Princess Royal’s morning routine is far less indulgent than her late aunt’s. Renowned for her unshakable work ethic and unwavering commitment, it’s no surprise that the 73-year-old Princess Royal’s wake-up call is remarkably down to earth.
A Right Royal Breakfast
Princess Anne reportedly begins her day with a bowl of fruit, giving her metabolism a natural boost. Known for her aversion to waste, the Princess Royal is said to enjoy fruit even as it starts to spoil.
Former royal chef Darren McGrady shared this insight with Today: “[Princess Anne] almost always preferred the bananas almost black – overripe – because they digest easier.”
Collecting Eggs
The Lady wrote that the Princess “enjoys collecting eggs herself for breakfast.”
Mature chickens lay eggs every day, meaning the royal most likely partakes in the early-morning pastime whenever she is home and not travelling for work.
Walking the Dogs
Much like her late mother, Anne is a fond animal lover and the proud owner of English Bull Terriers.
“The housekeeper takes the responsibility of running the household and is given the utmost trust to feed the dogs whenever the princess is away,” reads an excerpt in The Lady, suggesting that the mother-of-two tends to walking duties whenever she can.
