The Princess Royal already made it clear earlier this year that she was taking a very low-key approach to turning 75. Earlier in the summer she hosted over 100 of the charities she supports for a Charities Forum instead of having a birthday party.
She’s reportedly spending her big day on 15th August sailing around the Scottish coast with her husband Sir Timothy Laurence, which is exactly how she marked her 70th too. Princess Anne is an experienced sailor and as she celebrates, I found myself looking back at one of her earlier outings with Prince Philip in 1970.
