Princess Anne is the British royal family’s ultimate workhorse, proving once again why she is considered the hardest-working royal by many followers. At 74, Anne clocked 217 engagements in 2024, despite a summer concussion caused by a horse-related accident. Even hospitalizations couldn’t stop her hot streak, as she stepped in for King Charles during his cancer treatments, balancing royal duties, her own health conditions, and being resilient like a pro!
