Hard-working Princess Anne taking on new role ‘immediately’ with link to Prince Philip
Princess Anne has more than once been named the hardest-working member of the Royal Family and now she is set to take on another role that has a sweet link to Prince Philip.
The dedicated royal carried out 457 engagements in 2023, according to analysis from the Sunday Telegraph, and has taken on a third of all royal engagements in 2024 so far.
Now, the Princess Royal is to become the president of the In & Out Naval Military Club with “immediate effect”.
A letter sent to members confirmed that Princess Anne had taken up the role, revealing: “Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal has kindly agreed to assume the role of President of the In & Out Club for an initial period of 3 years, with immediate effect.”
The letter continued: “Members will recall that our first president, HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh passed away on 9th April 2021 having been a member since 1947 and President since 1979.
“It is a great honour for the Club to have a second Royal President, and we are very privileged that Her Royal Highness has accepted our invitation, especially considering Her existing commitments.”
Princess Anne is also a general for the army and an air chief marshal for the RAF.
