  1. Trop craquante la première photo où nous voyons Charles en train de faire un calin à Anne en lui saisissant une main ; lors du couronnement de Charles, on peut voir le regard complice échangé avec Anne en souhaitant que cela continue très longtemps !

  3. What lovely pictures which show the bond between them. The first picture of the two, in all their innocence, at a time when they knew not what the future held, is precious. Just a brother who loved his baby sister. The second one, 72 years later, shows that their affection for each other continues, and that that the Princess Royal happily supports her brother, the King. I hope the Princess Royal has a joyous, happy birthday.

      Very well said.

      I love the two photos together. The passage of time. Decades - a life time - that feels like an instant.

      Also, how very lucky and blessed she is to be a daughter that got to spend 72 years with her mother. Most of us are lucky if we get more than 40 or 50.

    The royal princess is above all a loyal sister, a strong woman who has always supported her brother in every moment of his life. Charles repays this loyalty with gratitude, exemplified by his love for Anne's children. I am sorry that William does not have such heartfelt and deep support from his brother. Happy birthday to your royal highness.
