Royal Family Drama Unfolds: Princess Anne Takes a Stand Against Prince Harry

In a recent royal tour, Princess Anne, the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, has made it crystal clear that Prince Harry will not be welcomed back into the United Kingdom with open arms.

The Princess Royal expressed her frustration over the comments and allegations he made in his recent book, firmly stating that there is no way back for Harry, even if he were to divorce Meghan and plead for forgiveness from the King.

In his memoir, titled “Spare,” the Duke of Sussex claimed that members of the royal family were engaged in a fierce competition to outdo one another in terms of the number of official duties they carried out.

According to Harry, some royals were fixated on achieving the highest tally of official engagements each year, leading to tensions within the palace.

While Harry did not name names, he insinuated that the list of engagements was manipulated since it was based on self-reporting, implying that some royals inflated their numbers to appear more industrious.

Princess Anne emerged as the royal family member with the most number of official engagements last year, as per a count conducted by Reboot SEO Company using the court's circular.

Anne completed a total of 214 engagements, securing the top spot on the list.

Following her was her brother, King Charles III, with 181 engagements over the past year, followed by Prince Edward, Sophie Countess of Wessex, Prince William, Camilla, and Catherine, the Princess of Wales.

Renowned for her unwavering commitment to her royal responsibilities, Princess Anne stressed the need for stringent guidelines to govern Harry's conduct, given that his recent actions have led to him being labelled as Britain's least favored royal, particularly among older demographics.

A recent survey by YouGov revealed that Harry's popularity plummeted further after the release of his book, with many perceiving it as a money-making venture.

Conversely, Princess Anne's popularity soared, with an impressive 72% of respondents viewing her as the most favorable member of the royal family.

This isn't the first time that Princess Anne has garnered the highest favorability ratings among members of the royal family.

Previous surveys conducted by YouGov have consistently shown the British public's admiration for the princess, lauding her as the least controversial member of the monarchy.

Anne's active involvement in her royal duties, especially following her mother's passing, has endeared her to the public, positioning her as a respected and trusted advisor to the King.

Historian Edward Owens, renowned for his detailed accounts of the royal family, attributes Anne's popularity to her strong work ethic.

He asserts that her passion for royal duties stems from her belief that the monarchy's continuity relies on its ability to justify its existence.

Concerns have surfaced that Harry may miss King Charles' coronation due to apprehensions within the royal family regarding the potential disclosure of private conversations.

Princess Anne and Prince Edward fear that confidential details about the upcoming coronation could be leaked and exploited at a later date.

Reports suggest that discussions have taken place within the family, involving both Edward and Anne, to prevent private discussions during the coronation from being exposed in the future.
