On May 9, 2025, Princess Anne, accompanied by her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, visited Guernsey to mark the 80th anniversary of the Channel Islands' liberation from German occupation. The visit comes as the Bailiwick concludes a week of celebrations commemorating the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe.
Between 1940 and 1945, the Channel Islands were the only part of the British Isles under German control during World War II. German forces formally surrendered in Guernsey on 9 May, with neighbouring Sark liberated the following day. Princess Anne’s visit included a parade, and meetings with survivors who experienced the occupation firsthand.
La princesse Anne est superbe dans cette tenue blanc cassé que l'on retrouve dans son chapeau jusque dans son sac à mains et chaussures !
ReplyDeleteThats my gal, looks like she enjoyed this assignment, comfy shoes and nice coat, a touch of lipstick, good to go.
ReplyDeleteAnne looks wonderful. I like the way her seafoam green dress is partially visible at the bottom of her coat.

Admiral Laurence appears to have great respect for the monarchy. He always lets the Princess walk a few steps ahead of him (just like Prince Phillip did for the Queen). He is always immaculately groomed. I love Pr. Anne's hat . Nylons could be a shade darker. Handbag needs to be updated = a clutch or small handled handbag would have looked better.
ReplyDeleteI like her commitment to Duty. We came o long way since the 80 years passed or did, we are really. Lovely coat. It is also a nice surprise to see her husband at this event.
