Princesses?

Question

What do princesses do?

Answer 1

Cut ribbons, open shopping malls and kiss babies.  What else is there to do until they become queen (if they are)?

Answer 2

public works, charity, and in some cases wait for their ascension to the throne.

Answer 3

If it is Princess Michael of Kent...very little. If it was Diana, Princess of Wales, well-plotted charity work, bulimia, noted affairs  (as did her husband) and media-tarting, she produced the 'heir and the spare.' Princesses like Eurgenie and Beatrice...are useless. They may be taught public speaking and to do civic duties...but face it, princesses are dynastic brood mares, nothing more and nothing less, no matter what country they are from..

Answer 4

It depends... here is what Anne,The Princess Royal does:

from http://www.royal.gov/uk

"Since 1969 The Princess Royal has pursued a busy schedule of public duties. In addition to carrying out engagements in support of The Queen, she works on behalf of a broad range of organisations.

She has a high-profile role as President of Save the Children Fund, and is a member of the International Olympic Committee.

The Princess Royal has also been closely involved in the creation of a number of charities, including The Princess Royal Trust for Carers, Riders for Health and Transaid.

Her work takes her all over the world, including visits to many developing countries to see the work of the organisations with which she is involved.

The Princess Royal has a wide range of public roles, and a very busy working schedule. In 2005 Her Royal Highness carried out some 640 engagements in the UK and overseas.

The Princess began to undertake public engagements alone when she was 18. She first flew her personal standard in 1969 when she opened an educational and training centre in Shropshire. Her first State visit was in May the same year, when she accompanied her mother and father to Austria.

The Save the Children Fund, of which she has been President since 1970, was the first major charity with which she became closely associated. It has given her great insight into the needs of children worldwide, and an understanding of the issues affecting developing countries.

In her work for the organisation, the Princess has visited Save the Children projects in many countries, including Indonesia, China, Cambodia, Vietnam, Ethiopia, Malawi, Botswana and Madagascar.

The Princess has been closely involved with the creation of several charities, notably The Princess Royal's Trust for Carers, Transaid and Riders for Health.

The Princess Royal's Trust for Carers provides support for the millions of individuals in the UK who are responsible for caring for someone.

Transaid and Riders for Health both try to overcome some of the difficulties caused by poor transportation links in developing countries.

The Princess also works with over 200 other organisations, to all of which she devotes a large part of her working life.



   In addition to working for her charities and regiments both at home and overseas, the Princess carries out up to three overseas tours each year for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in support of British interests overseas.

In 1990 she became the first member of the Royal Family to make an official visit to the then USSR, as a guest of the Soviet government.  

She also carries out a very wide range of official duties and visits in the United Kingdom in support of regional authorities and local institutions.



The Princess Royal is also a British representative in the International Olympic Committee. She took part in London's successful bid to host the 2012 Olympic Games, and is now a member of the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games. "

whatever they choose to support.
