The workhorse of the Royal Family , a true daughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Photographs show residual bruising around her left eye. Glad she’s back.

Take it easy ma’am, you’re our true treasure, a genuine one.

I thought she looked a bit frail. 3 weeks post concussion will have knocked the stuffing out of her.

I like Anne and I see she is wearing a trouser suit

Urmstongran Fri 12-Jul-24 16:43:03

Green too! 🤣

Germanshepherdsmum Fri 12-Jul-24 16:43:21

I’m so pleased.

Harris27 Fri 12-Jul-24 16:46:01

She’s one of the stalwarts!

Good to see her resuming her duties.

I hope she easing herself back in slowly with plenty of down time

Today, she was visiting the Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) National Championships at Hartpury University and Hartpury College in Gloucestershire after recovering from her dramatic injury.

Not too far to travel and I hope she eases herself back gradually.

She looks happy to be 'back in the saddle' (metaphorically).

A chip off the old block, meaning her father. I have a feeling she would make a feisty patient, impatient to get going again. My favourite Royal.

I read as far as “back” then had to look away and thought it was back in hospital, so glad it’s not.

She’s a cracker

How lovely to see she has recovered.

I have my fingers crossed that the Princess of Wales might make it to Wimbledon tomorrow for the ladies final.

I like her determination.
Obviously I don't know her but she is apparently very direct.
Glad she's out and about.

It's wonderful news as she is my favourite royal. You can still see all the bruising but she looked pleased to be there.x

Urmstongran Fri 12-Jul-24 21:21:58

It is perfectly normal to have no memory of an accident following concussion.

I wish HRH a speedy recovery to her formidable strength, the country needs ladies such as she.

That said, she looks tired (understandably) - goodness; that is still spectacular bruising after 3 weeks.

🙈

As was The Princess of Wales' sister at Wimbledon. But hers looked like pyjamas

I'm pleased to see Anne on the mend.

It is urmston - horses heads weigh a lot

Hooray for Princess Anne! A true treasure, indeed. She looks happy.

Good to see her out and about again.

Joseann, I think it's a Claire Mischevani jumpsuit actually.

Casdon Fri 12-Jul-24 22:00:43

I think Pippa looks lovely.
Princess Anne looked well to me, but she must have been very warm in her outfit, gloves and boots in July.

Callistemon213 Fri 12-Jul-24 22:23:11

Is it unusual for her to wear gloves?

She may be feeling chilly. I am!

Glad to see her back. One of the few royals I care about.

I think, like her mother, Princess Anne wears gloves on official engagements.

All those hands to shake, some sweaty with nerves…..

That just happens to look like pjs 😄

I wish Princess Anne well and she seems to be so.

If we’re talking fashion then she’s always gone her own way and wears what she likes, the above pic could have been taken any time since the 1950’s.Her preferred style is always very old fashioned including the hairstyle and she looks old, even for someone in her 70’s.Still, like the late Queen, I admire her for sticking to what she likes.

NotSpaghetti Sat 13-Jul-24 08:04:59

I think the jumpsuit looks lovely Oreo
