BREAKING: Princess Anne has sparked a wave of reactions among royal fans after her 2025 Christmas card went viral for its surprising simplicity. The Governor of Queensland shared the card on Instagram, revealing that it was signed simply “from Anne and Tim,” omitting her royal title, “The Princess Royal,” entirely.
The card featured a heartfelt message: “With Best Wishes for a Happy and Peaceful Christmas and New Year,” accompanied by a charming photo of Princess Anne and her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, taken during their visit to the Channel Islands in May 2025.
Fans took to social media to express their astonishment at the informal signature. One user remarked, “What? She didn’t sign it ‘The Princess Royal’? Of course not, she’s too classy for that.” Another added, “No need to blow the trumpet with the princess title and yet impactful. I like it!” The simplicity of the card has resonated with many, showcasing Anne’s down-to-earth approach.
The Instagram post also displayed Princess Anne’s royal monogram—a coronet over the letter “A”—highlighting her royal status despite the casual signature. Many supporters praised her for her commitment to duty and her authenticity. One fan stated, “The Princess Royal doesn’t need anyone to pompously announce her arrival,” while another emphasized her loyalty and work ethic, calling her “an incredible person.”
Interestingly, this year’s card stands in contrast to the recent Christmas card shared by King Charles and Queen Camilla, which was criticized for lacking a traditional festive photo. Their card featured a formal portrait taken in April to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary, leaving many fans longing for a more personal touch.
As the royal family continues to share their holiday greetings, Princess Anne’s unique approach has certainly captured the public’s attention. With her understated style and dedication to her royal duties, she remains a beloved figure among royal watchers.
