Princess Anne, a member of the British royal family, has expressed her reservations about the idea of a slimmed-down royal family. She stated that such an idea “doesn’t sound like a good idea” and suggested that the monarchy should not be scaled back.

The issue of a slimmed-down monarchy has been a topic of discussion in recent years, particularly after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down as senior members of the royal family. Some have argued that the royal family should be reduced in size in order to cut costs and modernize the institution.

However, Princess Anne has expressed her concerns about this idea, stating that the monarchy serves an important role in British society and that any reduction in its size could have negative consequences. She suggested that the royal family should focus on its core functions and work to improve its image, rather than reducing its size.

Princess Anne also addressed the recent controversy surrounding her brother, Prince Andrew, who has faced allegations of sexual misconduct. She stated that the situation had been “a great shame” for the family and that it was important for the truth to come out.
