Less than three weeks after being admitted to hospital for a concussion, Princess Anne has delighted royal fans with a return to public duties.

The Princess Royal was reportedly kicked by a horse on her Gloucestershire property on Sunday, June 23, sustaining minor head injuries and a concussion. Emergency services were dispatched to the estate, and after receiving medical care at the scene, the Princess was taken to hospital to undergo further tests, treatment, and observation.

Although it appeared that Anne would delay her upcoming royal engagements during her recovery, the Princess made the welcome return to the public eye on Friday, July 12, attending the Riding for the Disabled Association National Championships held in western England.

The horse-loving royal has been a patron of the charity for over five decades and has served as its president since 1986.

Royal fans were thrilled to see Princess Anne return to her public duties, with many eagerly welcoming the beloved royal back to the public eye.

“Oh thank god! This is joyous to see and read, prayers answered. God bless you Your Royal Highness,” one said in response to her public return.

“Thank God she’s healing and looking fabulous, I will add.”

“Good to see the Princess Royal back,” commented another.

“Can’t keep a good woman down, welcome back Anne.”

Anne’s return to public duties so soon should come as no surprise given her commitment to her royal duties and her reputation as the hardest-working member of the Royal Family. 

According to a report from The Telegraph earlier this year, Princess Anne had attended 457 engagements in the past year.

This places her as the busiest member of her family for the third consecutive year, surpassing even King Charles, who had attended 425 engagements at the time in his new role.

The third busiest was their youngest brother, Prince Edward, with 309 engagements. In contrast, the heir apparent to the throne, Prince William, has only attended 172.
