Published

on


Princess Anne has claimed the title of the hardest-working royal in 2023, according to an analysis by The Telegraph. 

The Princess Royal topped the list with an impressive 457 public engagements, surpassing her brother, King Charles, who came in second with 435 engagements. 

The Duke of Edinburgh followed in third place, completing 297 engagements.

In her years of dedicated service, Anne has mastered the art of public outings. During a 1985 interview with Terry Wogan, she shared an interesting strategy to ensure her engagements run smoothly. 

When asked how she comes up with fresh conversation for each person she meets, Anne likened it to “market research.” 

She explained, “You can ask everybody, literally everybody, the same questions,” highlighting her unique approach to connecting with those she meets. 

Anne offered further insight into her efficient approach to public engagements, revealing a clever strategy she employs during her royal duties. 

“You have three questions for that afternoon, and you ask everybody the same questions,” she explained. 

“And with any luck, it shortens the time involved… but it doesn’t always happen.” 

This method not only helps her navigate her busy schedule but also ensures she remains engaged with the public.

Additionally, she shared her thoughts on the royal tradition of opening new buildings and sites. 

“I’m very short about it. I don’t say a lot,” she admitted. “It’s more, ‘I’m very much looking forward to seeing whatever it is I’m about to open’—or words to that effect.” 

Her straightforward approach reflects her no-nonsense attitude and dedication to making each engagement meaningful, even if it’s brief. 

With her impressive work ethic and practical strategies, Princess Anne continues to set a high standard for royal engagements.

Hilary Swank: ‘I was 47 when I got pregnant, and I feel like I have a lot more patience’

Hilary Swank has recently explained why she wasn’t ready to have kids before she turned 47.

Speaking to PEOPLE, The Good Mother actress, who shares twins with husband Philip Schneider, said she wanted to give her kids “the best start by using clean, healthy products”.

Hilary revealed she “was shocked, mortified and actually enraged at what I was seeing and learning”.

While collaborating with HealthyBaby, the Freedom Writers actress continued, “And then I came across HealthyBaby and I wanted to learn more, so I kept diving deeper.”

Hilary pointed out, “I think they’re leading the charge to make this change, and everyone’s going to definitely be following suit because there’s no other choice.”

The actress told the outlet, “There should be no other choice for your baby.”

Hilary praised that HealthBaby “discloses everything, they’re completely transparent. We know everything that’s in their diapers, as it should be”.

The Million Dollar Baby actress shared she was “really focused on my other baby, which was my career”.

“I knew I wanted to be an actor since I was 8 years old, and I have loved my career,” she says. “I’m hopefully always going to be an actor,” she mentioned.

Hilary explained, “So, I was really career-focused and I wasn’t ready to have children in my 20s, or really even in my 30s, and then I hit my 40s and I didn’t have a partner. That doesn’t mean I had to have a partner.”

Reflecting on parenthood, the actress noted, “I was 47 when I got pregnant, and I feel like I have a lot more patience, and I’ve done a lot of my own personal work to be the type of mother I want to be, whereas it would’ve just been different in my twenties and thirties.”

“I don’t think I would’ve had the patience and the grace that I hopefully can bestow a little bit more [of] now, and a self-awareness in a different way that I don’t need to focus on myself anymore in the way that I did at that point,” she added.

Tom Ellis, Meaghan Oppenheimer working together on ‘Tell Me Lies’

Real life couple, Tom Ellis and Meaghan Oppenheimer got candid on how it was to work “together” on the romantic television drama series, Tell me lies.

“We really weirdly work very, very well together,” the show’s creator, Oppenheimer shared with People before the premiere of season 2.

“I think it’s funnier for other people because, spoiler, everyone is [undressed] on our show and he is as well,” the 38-year-old added.

“And I think some people at first were like, ‘Is this weird for you guys?’ And it’s so not weird for us. But I think that was funny for other people. Then you get over the first day and people are like, ‘Oh, this is just another day at work.’”

Ellis, who stars on the show, agreed. “It’s never been a problem for us really,” he said, referring to professional ties with his wife.

“I think we have a huge amount of respect for each other creatively. And I think she’s really, really talented at what she does, and she’s really, really good at talking to actors,” the 45-year-old added, calling the decision to take the gig a “no brainer.”

“I know a few people have gone, ‘What’s it like working with your wife? That must be strange.’ It’s like, well, actually, it’s strange that it isn’t strange, I think is probably the best answer.”

Lala Kent on Vanderpump Rules season 11

Lala Kent gushes about Vanderpump Rules season 11’s role in her life amid all the backlash.

“Season 11 was my season where I’ve said it may not have been a high as far as the audience goes,” Lala admitted on the Monday, September 30, episode of her Give Them Lala podcast. “But season 11 for me was a personal high.”

Lala shared about the “tremendous amount of growth” she showcased while onscreen, adding, “I felt a tremendous amount of peace within myself, which has never really happened.”

The reality star backed everything that she did after rewatching the seasons.

“Each season I can go through and pinpoint exactly where I was mentally,” she continued. “Season 11 was the first season where I’m like, ‘I am who I am right now. I got questions, but I feel that peace.’ It was great so I’m going to take that one into account as well.”

Lala faced criticism when season 11 of Vanderpump Rules premiered on Bravo earlier this year.

The new season followed the fallout from Tom Sandoval’s affair with Rachel “Raquel” Leviss and his breakup with Ariana Madix. Although Lala initially supported Ariana, 39, she began to question her stance as the season unfolded.
