Princess Royal to first name request: “Actually, I prefer Mrs.”

September 19, 2013

According to The Telegraph:

Traditionally, the Prime Minister makes an annual visit to Balmoral during September. In 2011, David and Samantha Cameron visited on the weekend of the Braemar Gathering, of which the Queen is chieftain.

Tony Blair’s visit to the Highland Games in 2003 was notable for the lack of enthusiasm exhibited by his wife, Cherie. She wrote, controversially, in her memoirs about the couple’s visits to the Highlands.

When Mrs Blair invited the Princess Royal to call her “Cherie”, Anne had replied: “Actually, I prefer Mrs Blair.”
