Princess Anne Interview Posted by PaulP on May 3, 2023, 1:09 pm The Princess Royal's CBC News interview has been posted on YouTube and is worth watching. Very admirable lady. Notice the brooch worn for the interview, and an interesting one in photo at time= 7:32, and also from 19:10 to 19:50 a series of brooches worn in Canada when she was young (Does she own the maple leaf brooch at 19:41?). There is nice footage of her triple strand pearl necklace at 24:22.

Re: Princess Anne Interview Maple Leaf Posted by Beth on May 4, 2023, 6:17 pm, in reply to "Princess Anne Interview" Many thanks PaulP I don't know what is more interesting - the brooches or Princess Anne's responses. 1. The Maple Leaf brooch The Queen Mother was given one in 1954 for Princess Anne. She was also given one for the Queen (QEII) during the 1939 Canadian tour. Brooch given to QEQM for Princess Anne. Princess Anne has worn it several times. In the photos from 2014 I think she is wearing the same outfit. From the video 2014

Re: Princess Anne Interview Star Posted by Beth on May 4, 2023, 6:27 pm, in reply to "Re: Princess Anne Interview Large Diamond Brooch" One of the brooches seen in the video is a diamond star. I know nothing about its provenance, but it is also worn frequently.

Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery Posted by Beth on May 4, 2023, 6:30 pm, in reply to "Re: Princess Anne Interview Star" This is the first time I have seen the brooch worn by the Princess Royal for the interview. Does anyone have any ideas?

Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery 2 Posted by Beth on May 4, 2023, 6:34 pm, in reply to "Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery" I know nothing about the brooch worn by Princess Anne while accompanying the hearse. It reminds me of a celtic cross

Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery 2 Posted by PaulP on May 4, 2023, 8:42 pm, in reply to "Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery 2" Thank you Beth. I found an old RJWMB brief discussion about the "celtic" brooch, but no info about its provenance. https://members2.boardhost.com/royal-jewels/msg/archive/1428423960.html

Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery 2 Posted by Beth on May 5, 2023, 6:54 pm, in reply to "Re: Princess Anne Interview Mystery 2" Thank you PaulP. I had totally forgotten about that thread. I keep telling myself there is nothing wrong with my memory!! Umm? I would really like to find more information on the brooch Princess Anne wore for the interview. No one seems to have mentioned it,so I guess it is totally new to everyone.
