This lady never stops,she is a true royal lady
Tax payers never stops that’s royalty in my opinion.
This is what marks out a real lady!
@@johnnichol9412Another bootlicker who still lives in the past!
@@johnnichol9412 I heard a quote that the UK tax payer spent nearly £100m on the Royal Family in 2021...when you think of how much money will be generated in the economy, and of course tax paid, by people who will come to the UK as tourists (to visit locations that have featured prominently during the funeral, which was watched by massive audiences around the World)...I think that should be regarded as money well spent.
@@Northstander It's true, they are big tourist attraction, and that's gotta generate an immense amount of tax revenue, and just plain cash for businesses all throughout Britain. Europe is chock-a-block with history and magnificent architecture. Nowhere else today though are you going to experience pomp and majesty equal to that of the British Monarchy. The changing of the guards would be a hollow without a monarch on the throne.
It seems to me Queen Elizabeth II lived a life of duty, without complaint. She's wealthy and well compensated, there's no doubt. Nonetheless she served faithfully and selflessly until her dying day. Princess Anne seems cut from the same tree. I'm not a British taxpayer so my opinion isn't going to affect y'all, but you'd be wise to keep a monarch on the throne.
I admire Princess Anne. Hard worker, loyal to family and the Monarchy.
I have to tell you Princess Anne's favourite. Naff off. Already in history. Lol xxxxxxxx
@@jacquelinefox2632 Naff off? Oh, Naff off to you too💕🤪
Agreed.
A filial daughter too!
Princess Royal Anne, what a class act. Works all hours of the day and night. Yet never forgets to thank those who do a great job.
Absolutely. That was an inspired act by Anne.
My son met her a couple of months ago at a venue he was doing security for , she spoke to everybody on the security team, all other staff, on his ID badge his name is David , she called him Dave lol and it made his day .
I want HER to rule the country!
@@lonelypigeon7562 Queen Anne II has a nice ring to it.
Princess Anne is cut from the same cloth as our Glorious Majesty. What a classy Lady. King Charles needs to understand that she is respected above most of the rest of his family and reward her accordingly.
One of the most touching photographs l have seen is Princess Anne looking at her brother with such concern on her face. His Majesty knows she will never let him down.
The Princess Royal is much like her mother: dedicated to her duty, yet humble and unpretentious. That she would take the time to do this does not surprise me.
Yes, it is always about others, never about her.
She is easily my favourite Royal after the Queen. She is so down to earth and not afraid to get her hands dirty and muck in
After the Queen, she’s the best indeed
I absolutely agree..
I agree 100%
She is one in a million and so lovely just plain ordinary no high notions. Just plain wonderful.
Every single one of them did a fantastic job, the country is very proud
I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many personnel from the different branches of Armed Services presenting with such synchronicity. The precision was breathtaking. The musicians were fantastic. And the sheer endurance of it all. There is no doubt in my mind that Her Majesty was watching, and you all did her proud. What a comfort for the family and for mourners everywhere. Well done. From an Armed Forces family in the USA. 🇺🇸
As well as you should be proud- As an American I was so impressed with these gentlemen!!
The Senior Service again shows why it is the Senior Service. Well done.
And have they thanked everyone who was involved?
@@jamielyallleathan I read that representatives were chosen, and they thanked each one of them personally.
i am retired Welsh guards . princess anne has always been a passionate person in her role and as a human being . i remember several times at places like windsor where she would turn up during the cold nights on guard . everything alright guardsman?, yes maam . she actually cared if we where warm enough . only a small thing , but it was appreciated .
That is so good to hear! Thanks for your years of service..
Wow..that is so nice..Thank you for sharing this about her!!!!
I never knew that, what a truly gracious person she is.
I have so much respect for the Princess Royal
What a classy thing to do!
@@doubledoc7807 She is one in a million."
@@luzesquivel6010 In her deepest sorrow, at the loss of her mother, she thought of others..... I already respected her, but now I adore her!
She is a diamond💎 and would have made a great queen!
@@ecclairmayo4153 She seems to be more revered than any other royal family member, isn't she?
Princess Anne is a treasure for you the UK.
Absolutely agree 👍
💯
Respect to all who helped made the Queen's final journey perfect.
Our forces did wonderfully well on the day. Extraordinary discipline produced unforgettable sights. 👏
So nicely said! ❤
They were extraordinary. From an admirer from Across-the-Pond in the US.
Salute from capetown ZA🇿🇦
Beautiful. Ever etched my memory. Thank you
From start to finish it was perfect .
as an ex member of the guards this was a very difficult parade for the people involved . the march from Westminster to the wellington arch was bad enough , but then the march to Windsor castle was even harder . physically it was very demanding .
Anne is the absolute best. Such a beautiful example of integrity, work ethic and empathy.
So happy that the Royal Navy was recognized by Princess Anne for their extraordinary service with
Queen Elizabeth's final journey. It was a magnificent display of the British culture.
She is married to the navy, it's not surprising she was the one to do this.
I saw the Queen Crowned on TV when when I was 10. So many years later I saw her laid to rest. The entire ceremony from start to finish was REMARKABLE, as was the QUEEN.
Crowned or the Queen’s Coronation. Monarchs don’t get inaugurated. That’s for heads of state of counties that are republics of which this country isn’t.
Corrected. But you seem to have missed the point of my comment.
Likewise. Absolutely remarkable.
@@denniscasey986 Well said Dennis , we all understood you.
Ja dit is wel een heel mooie herinnering Dennis, hou je goed en gelukkig, Greets from Belgium.
Thank you, Princes Royal, you have shown the world you are special person, and these men will respect you all the more
Nothing new so typical of Princess Anne, thanks the people that did the job!
The sight of all those sailors, with tow ropes carrying their Queen to her funeral - just spine-tingling!
Bravo to the Princess Royal for showing her gratitude.
She is a beacon of hope. A selfless person who like our late Queen, puts service first.
So classy and dignified in her duties. Much respected.
I want HER to be "Queen Anne III"
Yes she would make a wonderful Queen 👑
What a remarkable woman to take the time to personally thank the Royal Navy for their part in the Queen's state funeral. As ex-army and 67 years old and served in the Royal Artillery in the 70's l will admit and not ashamed l did cry at the loss of our Queen and was very proud of all the military taking part in the Queen's State funeral. Thank You
Yes, the Royal Navy did a great job on that sad day. All those that took part will remember it for the rest of their lives. Well done Princess Anne for going out of your way to thank them, they surely deserved it.
Incredibly proud of everyone that took part, and well done to The Princess Royal for giving her time to say thank you.
Dose the princess royal ever stop working she’s a marvel god bless her ⭐️🥰
Princess Anne just seems to do it. Whatever " it " may be, she digs in and does it. Much respect and admiration for The Princess Royal.
I have nothing but total respect to those young lads and women in our forces, deciding to join our armed forces and not becoming something like a influencer or TH-camr.
Hold your heads up high. We are so proud of you.
Night -my,I bet they influenced a lot of people to join the forces ,They all did a great job I’m so proud of them all .
@@sandraford4235 Yes my husband is ex R.N.and is So proud of those young men and women ..We are all proud of them all ..The whole Funeral was organised to Perfection and if it was up to us those Pallbearers especially ..would get a medal..
@@sandraford4235 yes I agree . It made me wish i had joined when younger
God bless them all! Please come back home safe ALWAYS!
YES,, only the British, can do it so well. All the young men, pulling that gun carriage, to take their queen, to her final rest, the cadence of the drum beat, and the pace of the troops, so very beautifully done. So very British understated, but stunningly powerful. Well done, all of you, you did "Her" proud.
The Princess Royal is tops in my book.
May God bless her and her devoted husband!
Princess Anne is one of the hardest workers. She is very thoughtful of all that goes on around her and thanking the people involved in the funeral is just one example. Well done, Ma'am.
Ann is a class act, they all did the Queen proud !!!
You did a great job Princess Royal was right to come and thank you
Well done guys. You did an amazing job. In awe of Princess Royal and her visit at what must be a difficult time, shows how much your efforts meant to her. Thank you.
What a great and gracious lady! And great job of the Naval lads!
And lasses!
All the sailors did a PHENOMINAL JOB!!! They should all be so PROUD . What a family tale to tell their kids and future generations!
And may I be silly, and say. SHEESH...are good looks a requisite to join HM's Navy????? No wonder HLM found the love of her life in Portsmouth!! God Bless them all and always keep them safe
Had hoped the Princess Royal had her feet up. Many thanks to Prince Anne xx
Princess Ann and the Navy did an amazing job.
The ratings looked amazing, marching perfectly, looking steadfastly straight ahead while
"The Mist Covered Mountains" was played by the pipe band is something I will never forget.
If any Royal were to take the time and trouble to thank them it would be our Princess Anne, bless her.
Princess Royal Anne is AMAZING!!!!! Appreciation and Acknowledgment is something they'll NEVER forget!!!!
A true LADY just like her WONDERFUL MOTHER.
It was a stunning display of planning and execution. We were all emotionally moved and hugely impressed by it all. Even from Australia.
And the US.
Yes, I'm Aussie too and was stunned by Queen Elizabeth II final journey from Balmoral to Windsor. It all seemed to go very smoothly from start to finish and was a fitting tribute to Her Majesty, may she Rest In Peace.
This Jamaican in New York, USA was also impressed by the military precision of the services. Awed seeing the unison of the navy pulling the gun carriage.
And in Canada
What a lovely Princess Royal is your Mother would be so honoured
That is leadership........
Yet again,Bravo to the Princess Royal!
What a lady!!!❤️
The part played by these sailors was flawlessly executed and one of my favourite parts of the funeral. Congratulations to everyone involved
My heart did go out to everyone, especially at Constitution Hill! All the armed forces did Her Majesty, and the country, proud. As did the Princess Royal who is herself a national treasure
There must be a gradient for it to be called a Hill, and yet they made it look effortless.
@@alisoncooper1421 there is and they did. They did remarkably well
All we, outside the UK, are just green of envy... You are a great example to the world!
Thank you 🇬🇧.
I agree.
An admirer from the US.
Agree, Thank you all. ZA🇿🇦
You can't speak for "we".
@@pepwaverley2185 - I agree. Those who wish to break up this amazing U.K. will hopefully now appreciate what we have and could lose.
She is one of my favourite royals.
As an ex matlot, was proud of the lads and their effort on the day. Well done lads!
She is such an amazing person! What a special moment for those people to be personally thanked by the Queens daughter
Princess Ann is absolutely brilliant 👏
A thank you goes a long way in all walks of life and costs nothing. Think we are all going to miss the Queen at some point 🙄
This American in California was so moved by Anne, the Princess Royal, throughout this time of mourning. Equally moved by the sailors pulling the gun carriage. Such honor on all sides.
My Mom turns 97 in 12 days. She is 6 months older than Queen Elizabeth and as a Canadian, grew up with her. She remembers the photos of the Queen as a child and all her radio addresses and TV appearances. When I told her the Queen had died, she said only, "Oh!" Stoic, much like the Queen. But the emotions flitting across her face said so much. She was saying good-bye to a part of her life and a part of herself. So, a part of me died with Queen Elizabeth too. The grace she displayed so eloquently in life has surely carried her to heaven. Where she will no longer have to be in charge. May peace be upon Great Britain and King Charles.
Princess Anne all her life have been very hard working person behind the scenes and deserved a big recognition and appreciation 💖🕊️🙌
What a spectacular job they all did, it was just incredible to watch. I think we can all safely say that the Queen would have been very happy and very proud. Considering the royal family are still very much in mourning, it's very touching that they feel compelled to go and thank all involved in such a personal way. Thank you all, for your awesome service.
She's always been one of the hardest working royals . She's wonderful 😍
YT algorithms sent me here, but I’m so happy watching this. Princess Royal is carrying on her mothers service of visiting places that needed visiting and thanking the people that needed thanking.
Pure class.
This is my personal motto. 'Thanking people' who did their very best for you, is SO important in life. I just did for the nursing staff who took care of my mother over the last 3 months. And flowers say it best.
This was such a beautiful gesture on Princess Anne's behalf. All of the Royal Forces invited to assist during this special moment in British history, are so gratefully appreciated. I am not British, nor have I ever traveled outside the borders of America. But, losing Queen Elizabeth feels like I've lost my favorite grandmother all over again.
God Bless Princess Anne, King Charles, and the Royal Family. And, to the Royal Forces, thank you for serving and doing your country proud. God bless you all.
Thats what I and many others feel, we lost a Grandmother.
@Nacho Mama, thank you for saying that, so gracious.
Thank you for this gracious comment. The Queen united so many people in her life and in her passing.
What a marvellous legacy.
HRH The Princess Royal, leading from the front with a shining example of morale boosting and common curtesy, the sort of Officer who you would follow into Hell itself!
Well done to everyone who took part in Her Majesty’s Funeral but that block of darkest blue, trimmed with white, made me emotional. You weren’t as perfect in form, as you were at Sir Winston Churchill’s Funeral but it was still a show stopping effort, like a slower, more regal entrance of the Gun Teams, full of purpose and restrained strength!
What a lady just like her mother ❤💔
Well done everyone. From a foreigner, I was deeply moved and impressed by the ceremony. The participation of the Army and Navy was impressive. Bravo
Wonderful. These guys did a sterling job, and it’s no surprise that Princess Anne would do this. She’s a superstar in my book.
As if we needed another reason to be in awe of her. Well done
That's so thoughtful of Her
This is why we need the Monarchy!
This is why you need a Navy !
This is why you need both of them
You are hilarious! You need the monarchy for what? The military serves the country! Not the monarchy!
@@jamielyallleathan If you lived in a contry that has monarchy you understad just as I do not understand contrys that has presidents
@@jamielyallleathan you are the hilarious one! I am a military veteran with twelve years full time service and six years reserve service! What you appear to be ignorant of is that EVERYONE who joins the military take an oath of allegiance to serve Queen AND Country (see below):
What oath do British soldiers take?
Head of the Army
When soldiers join the British Army they swear an Oath of Allegiance not to the government of the day, but to the King/Queen and his/her successors. However, ultimate authority on the Army's deployment and use rests with Parliament and 'the people'.
So as you can see you’re sort of half right! I suggest that you do your research before berating anyones comments, you might even try to do something useful and join up yourself, that way you will have a full understanding of what you’re talking about! Your welcome!
She's so amazing. Everyone did brilliant for the state funeral.
They were perfect. So impressive.
They Navy were amazing on the day & The Princess Royal taking the time to personally thank those involved, just emphasizes her commitment to duty, she truly is an amazing person
This woman is an absolute diamond.
What an incredibly thoughtful and compassionate gesture made by the Princess Royal, especially at this sad time. It begs repeating: dignity thy name is Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise
Rectification: 'it bears repeating ...'
@@barbarastevens4054 it’s incredibly ill mannered to correct someone you don’t even know in this way.
A wonderful gesture by Princess Anne to take the time to give a personal thank you to all who did such an exemplary job during the funeral events. Her late mother QEII would be pleased.
A fabulous job and makes me proud to be British.
What a classy Lady.
The Princess Royal has an impecable sense of duty and an intense heart of gratitude for all of those who go the extra mile.
Those who carried and honored HMQEII coffin in their shoulders, are worth of recognition.
Thank you Princess Anne for your acknowledgment of service .
What a person to thank all that was involved with her mom's funeral hats off to you ma'am you are amazing ❤️ my heart goes out to you. You are in my prayers
I was so proud of them all but the sailers pulling her coffin no words for the pride that they did a beautiful job xx
The Royal Navy did a magnificent job, the teams drawing the gun carriage were so inspiring, for me, the most touching element of the parade. The Princess Royal is an outstanding person. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you sailors and officers absolutely brilliant 🇬🇧 and an extra bonus from our amazing Princess Royal ❤️👏👏👏👏
Good job people
That shows what a great person she is
The Princess Royal truly deserves admiration and respect
So wonderful that Princess Anne thanked the Royal Navy! What an amazing contribution they made to the Queen's funeral. Without them, the wheels would not have moved properly for the dear Queen. They also represented Prince Philip. She needed her Navy men to help her as the Prince did during their marriage.
How lovely off her.
The precision, discipline and heart shown to the world by everyone involved in the most extraordinary, complex and reverent event honoring The Queen is equally matched by the grace, dignity and heartfelt actions of Princess Anne.
They were fantastic I am so proud of these young people
The image of all the sailors pulling the gun carriage is forever fused in my mind - sincere thanks to all involved in Her Majesty’s funeral. It was breathtakingly magnificent 👏👏👏
People tend to forget that she is married to a (now retired) vice admiral of the Royal Navy.
This unexpected visit was good for both the navy personnel involved in the funeral processing and for the Princess Royal!
Just like her late Mother, the Princess Royal is an exceptional human being 🙏🏻👏🏼👌🏻
Such an astounding job by all the army personnel. Very very impressive. I will never forget that procession. What a great farewell to a great Queen.
Princess Anne is the best. God bless her.
The Ceremonial Training Officer and his team deserve a global salute! That was an amazing send off they executed for a phenomenal queen.
Salute❣️
She's cool
Well Prince royal prince anne
That's our princess Anne, duty above all, just like her parents.
What an absolute credit these guys and gals were along with all our forces thank you
Such respect and warmth shown , thankyou to our amazing forces
Princess Anne💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Brilliant without question.
Princess Royal Anne is a class act! She’s my favourite! A wonder effort for all. HMTQ is smiling down on you all!
I was so proud of the Royal Navy and the job they did. What a wonderful thing the Royal Princess did taking the time and thanking them.
My Dad was in the Navy thank you Anne for doing this .. so many families have been watching around the 🌎 the Military gave our family of 6 food on our tables it also gave us health care, dental care and back then the Doctor's took out time to make sure we had a balanced diet. God Bless sending Love to you and your family during these difficult times.
The men who escorted the Queen as she was carried aboard the gun carriage did a magnificent service. I congratulate and honour them. Thank you, from Australia 🏆🇭🇲
