Few members of The Firm are quite as progressive – or as private – as Princess Anne. Ahead of her 70th birthday on 15 August, however, the Queen’s only daughter will allow the public a glimpse behind-the-scenes of her royal life in an ITV documentary – reflecting on everything from her three British Vogue covers to her near-kidnapping in 1974. A crew shadowed the Princess for a year for the film – following the “hardest-working royal” to her countless engagements (including her presentation of the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design to Alighieri’s Rosh Mahtani), as well as capturing her life at home on her Gloucestershire estate, Gatcombe Park. The final cut includes interviews not only with Anne herself, but with her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence; her children, Peter Phillips and Zara Tindall; and close friends through the years, including many of her Ladies in Waiting.
