The Princess Royal’s school pal, Sandra de Laszlo, has opened up on some of the memories she has of being educated alongside Anne and revealed some of the cheeky things they got up to in their teenage years.
In a new ITV documentary, set to air next week to celebrate Princess Anne’s 70th birthday, Sandra recalled how the pair would run rings around Anne’s safety guard at Benenden School, saying, “There was a really lovely security officer and we did lead him a bit of a dance. It was rather fun to break out of school and go to the fish and chip shop and try to escape this loyal detective who was supposed to be looking after her.”
Admitting that Princess Anne seemed just like her other school peers, Sandra added, “Anyway we did that a few times. She was a very normal teenager. She was sensible and fun.”
