Princess Anne’s very practical career choice if she’d never been born a member of the Royal Family is something that many people might be surprised by.
Although Princess Anne doesn’t have full-time security, she is one of the most important working members of the Royal Family and has been devoted to her royal duties for decades. She first started carrying out public engagements when she was 18 and although the Princess Royal also had a successful equestrian career, since she retired her full-time job has been her royal role. However, that doesn’t mean that King Charles’s younger sister hasn’t ever considered embarking on a very different career path. Princess Anne herself revealed in 2020 during an interview with Vanity Fair that she’d have been an engineer if she wasn’t royal.
