Royal family member Princess Anne supports the York family in the wake of controversial Prince Andrew allegations
In the midst of the controversy surrounding Prince Andrew's claims in Andrew Lownie's book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, Princess Anne is showing quiet yet unwavering support for the York family. This is evident in her recent charitable engagements, such as her visit to Sheffield’s Northern General Hospital to celebrate the opening of a new garden at the Princess Royal Spinal Injuries Centre[1][2][5].
The garden, a part of Princess Eugenie's charity, Horatio’s Garden, supports individuals and their loved ones facing spinal injuries[6]. The Princess Royal's visit was to celebrate this new achievement, not to address the controversy surrounding the York family[7].
The video shared by Horatio's Garden's official Instagram handle, featuring testimonials from various individuals, aims to show the impact of the garden on those who use it[3]. The video concludes with a statement expressing hope that it gives a sense of the beauty of the new garden[4].
The video features appearances from James, Nurse Director Ali Mortimer, the garden's award-winning designers Charlotte Harris and Hugo Bugg, Appeal Ambassador George Ross Robinson, and Founder Dr Olivia Chapple OBE[1]. A quote from James, expressing his appreciation for the garden, is included in the caption of the video[8].
Princess Anne's support for the York family extends beyond the controversy, as she is known for working hard to protect and positively represent the royal family overall[3][5]. This includes her role in promoting her niece Princess Eugenie's charitable work.
It is important to note that the Princess Royal is not involved in the controversy surrounding the York family as depicted in Andrew Lownie's book[9]. Instead, she is focusing on her charitable engagements, demonstrating a commitment to uplifting the York family's image amid ongoing scandals.
