Princess Anne received heartbreaking news from King Charles as the monarch honoured a key royal figure over his hard-working sister.
The Princess Royal is “not permitted” to use a special royal privilege, unlike Kate Middleton, who was recently appointed to a major role by the King.
The Princess of Wales has been allowed to issue Royal Warrants, which made her the fourth member of the royal family to cherish this opportunity.
King Charles, Queen Camilla and Prince William already have the power to issue Royal Warrants to people and companies that regularly supply goods or services to the royal household for at least three years.
Royal commentator Brian Hoey highlighted that the mother of Zara Tindall is not allowed to use this perk.
As per Mail, he said, “The late Queen did not allow [King Charles’s] then-wife, Princess Diana, to award any warrants. Instead, she used to send hand-written notes in recognition of excellent service, which were equally cherished by the recipients.”
Brian added, “Princess Anne is not permitted to send warrants, even though she is, arguably, the hardest working member of the Royal Family.”
