Peter Phillips and Zara Tindall Reveal Princess Anne's "Soft" Side as a Grandma

Princess Anne has long been considered one of the hardest working members of the Royal Family, and even though she gives off a tough exterior at royal events, she does have a softer side. The Princess Royal has five grandkids between her children Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips, and now that Peter has married Harriet Sperling, Anne has added Sperling's 13-year-old daughter, Georgina, to the crew. Although it's sometimes hard to find time in her busy royal schedule, her children say that Princess Anne is just like any other grandma.

Peter and Zara opened up about their mother in an ITV documentary released for the Princess Royal’s 70th birthday, sharing some rare comments about her life as a grandmother.
