As per a report by the New Idea, Princess Anne is the force behind the decision to invite her nieces to the wedding of her son.

The insiders said, “There’s no doubt this has happened because of their most beloved Auntie Anne, who can’t bear to see the girls and their new families be harmed by her insufferably selfish brother.

“This is a safe, family-first event where they can show up, support Peter and reconnect with some very dear and close loved ones.”

Amid these claims, the royal family shared photos of Princess Anne and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence as she hosted the annual Garden Party at Buckingham Palace.

The photos were released with caption, “The Princess Royal, accompanied by Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, has hosted The Not Forgotten Association’s Annual Garden Party at Buckingham Palace.

They spent the afternoon meeting military veterans and service members, as well as volunteers and staff from the charity.

For over 100 years, The Not Forgotten Association has been supporting veterans and service people who have suffered physical or mental injuries, illnesses or loneliness.
