Widely regarded as the hardest working member of the British royal family, Princess Anne has enjoyed a long running and colourful career as the only daughter of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
The famously feisty Princess Royal has been married twice, first to Captain Mark Phillips - with whom she shares son Peter and daughter Zara - and then to Timothy.
The couple have been together ever since and while they keep their private life largely out of the spotlight, they’re often spotted together at public events and royal engagements.
