The only daughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II, Princess Anne, gave a rare interview. In an interview with the Canadian edition of CBS News, she spoke about what kind of king her brother will be. Anna also discussed the importance of the monarchy for the country. The Princess believes that such a system brings the UK and the Commonwealth “long-term stability” and “continuity”. She also opposed the reduction of the monarchy. This idea was previously voiced by her brother, King Charles III.

The princess noted that Karl’s intention to reduce the number of working members of the royal family was expressed even before the departure of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the United States and before Prince Andrew ceased to perform royal duties amid a sex scandal.

The idea that the monarchy should be “downsized” came about when a few more people were performing royal duties. It seemed justified then,” she explained.

To the host’s remark that the world is changing, Princess Anne replied:

Of course, there are times when such discussions need to be held. But I would emphasize that the monarchy, along with the constitution, provides a level of stability for the long term, which is actually quite difficult to achieve in other ways,” said the 72-year-old princess.

Princess Anne also commented on the picture of her mother after the funeral of her husband, Prince Philip. In the photo, the queen was sitting alone and looked sad. Anna noted that she was glad that she had not seen the picture at a difficult time, because at one glance at this photo it became difficult for her. The representative of the royal family noted that the coronavirus pandemic has deprived many older people of social contacts, which they experienced very hard. For the same reason, many people did not come to say goodbye to Prince Philip.

Covid robbed my father, who lost a lot of people from those who could come to him, talk to him and have all those conversations that would keep him interested. He led to his loss, said the sister of Charles III.

Anna spoke about her brother, King Charles III. She joked that “everyone already knows what they will get.” The princess noted that Charles had already “trained a little to be a king” and “is unlikely to change.” Earlier it became known that the cost of the coronation exceeded 25 billion rubles. Thousands of police and security forces will be deployed to protect the royal family.
