HRH The Princess Royal rehomes a pony from World Horse Welfare

HRH The Princess Royal understands the problems that charities are facing currently in the horse world and does her bit to free up space for those horses in desperate need of rescuing and rehabilitating by rehoming World Horse Welfare's horse, Annie. The Princess hopes that others will follow her example and rehome rather than buy a horse when there are so many horses in desperate need of homes right now.

Very much respect PA, she is a true horsewoman since birth and the hardest working member of the royal family. People give her short shrift because she isnt as “popular” or glamorous as the younger generation but she is very determined, down to earth individual.

[@WomanNextDoor]

Nothing beats the sound of a horse happily munching down on some crispy fresh hay.

[@nancylee1625]

Just love the concept of re-homing horses and bless Princess Anne for being a part of a wonderful endeavor. 🥰🇺🇸

[@000001willy]

The Princess Royal is to be admired for her leadership in the care of abused horses and the re-homing of them, which does by adopting a horse.

[@noelborden8787]

The Princess Royal is her mother's daughter with her love of horses. She was an Olympian as is her daughter, Zara. Princess Anne is remarkable.

[@DivineMizE]

Just like her mother, Anne is lovely, calm and gracious. Nice horse!

[@pjtippett5510]

The horse is lovely, HRH even more. She seems down to earth, gracious, and kind.

[@waynebrasler]

The Princess Royal is an honorary title given to the eldest daughter of a King or Queen (in Anne's case, the only daughter). In her daily life, Anne is not much concerned with being royal, and in fact she decided her daughter and son should not be given royal titles because she didn't see that doing them much good in the modern world. As you can tell from the video, Anne is a down-to-earth, practical, straight-forward lady. She also is the hardest working member of the royal family and she is a fashion icon (you can find that on the internet too).

[@psychobunny32]

thank you Princess for being the female knight who rescues the horse!

[@babsfocker7751]

Princess Anne is a horse woman all her life. Good for her for doing this as she proberly has a herd of horses with royal pedigrees. God bless them, I hope they have a good life together.

[@CrimsonCompassion]

Its wonderful that the Princess took on a WHW horse ! What a down to earth wonderful women !

[@lizoliver4407]

Sad she can't be Queen. She's strong honest & down to earth with a great sense of humour. Wonderful advert for this charity. I'm sure the horse will have a wonderful life with a great horsewoman.

[@janetginger8571]

my esteem has risen tremendously for the royal family seeing this

[@CraftyCreativeGirl]

Love that happy munching in the background, haha

[@AEKAskenburne]

What a wonderful Lady...

[@ifmusicbethefoodofloveegc986]

The Queen & Princess Royal are my favourite 'Royals'. Their love of horses is evident, and is, I believe, a delight to both of them. Princess Anne was a very gifted rider, who won a silver (I believe) medal in the Olympics many years ago. Her daughter Zara takes after her, & is also a medal winner in more recent Olympics. Horses care nothing for wealth & status. One has to earn their love & respect. Once earned, they give their all. wonderful creatures.

[@LQOTW]

Princess Anne is a gorgeous soul! She is wonderful and I am a fan. I remember as a girl watching her riding in competition on television.

[@waynebrasler]

It is too bad Americans don't seem as familiar with the Princess Royal as they could be. She is an enormously hardworking lady, keeping a killer calendar of events, obviously intelligent and educated but also surprisingly witty at the most unexpected times. She also knows how to give a good speech; God knows she gives enough of them!

[@annettefournier9655]

Princess Anne has much experience with horses. Wonderful looking mare will have a good life. And her words were never truer.

[@debrabiderman4275]

That made has the kindest eyes. Princess Anne looks to be getting the perfect horse.

[@debrabiderman4275]

MARE

[@ms.gracejohnson7336]

World Horse Welfare, very good information and knowing the horses in depth wish WHW was in the USA...

[@lindaedwards1417]

How lovely! Annie for Princess Anne!🤗Perfect!

[@seahorse5689]

Lucky Annie to be in the care of HRH Princess Anne. She'll be so well cared for for the rest of her life.

[@PipBerry]

What a pretty pony :) Brilliant charity.

[@job1konobi200]

The princess has a good eye for a well built horse.

[@highpsi11]

It's sweet to think of the Queen, Princess Anne and her daughter Zara all having such a strong common interest in horses and riding. And Zara made her mother and grandmother so proud by winning a silver medal in the Olympics.

[@kellystruthers516]

Princess you are beautiful inside and out. Thank you for giving her a great life.

[@elizabethannegrey6285]

Very much respect for Princess Royal. Down to earth, and with enough compassion to adopt an abandoned animal, quite possibly not her first such action.

[@carolk60]

I am Irish but have to say that Princess Anne is a wonderful person. as we say here, she doesn't suffer fools gladly!! Her deep love of horses is so evident and proof of a fundamentally good human.

[@jimterryh1983]

WHW is a wonderful organization! Princess Anne shared her confidence, with others, in the WHW! GREAT LADY. 🇺🇸

[@whateveritis3103]

Im not a royalist by any stretch of the imagination, but The Princess Royal has not only my admiration but also respect. I'm the same age,and have watched her gracefully grow older.

[@roseault6335]

World horse welfare congratulations for being an amazing organisation. Hats off to you x

[@moyrawoodward2291]

How wonderful that the Royal family support such organisations. A very big thank you to The Queen for supporting Battersea and Princess Anne for supporting the WHW.

[@xxx-cl4vj]

The princess royal is an amazing woman and equestrian! Annie is lucky to have her x

[@HalfB]

I love rescues like this.... I’m a foster for kitties and I contract with each new owner and in that they’re not allowed to rehome them if situations arise and they can’t care for them so by contract the animals are always welcome back to me or I assist in the care. I’ve only needed to take back one male as I tried to rehome him again and he showed very stressed behavior and I brought him home twice and realized he’s happy and at his best with me so he’s mine forever.

[@WarHorse16]

She looks frighteningly similar to a Welsh Cob x mare I used to ride! Same colour and same markings, also something of a rescue case, but the mare I knew was a mere 12.3hh. I wish that Australia had equine charities like WHW; you do such incredible work. And these success stories are so wonderful!

[@doreenbenson5263]

HRH, DOES A VERY GOOD JOB OF EXPLAINING ABOUT THE HORSES . HRH, HAS A VERY KIND HEART FOR THE HORSES. I VERY MUCH APPRECIATE HER WORK HERE AS WELL AS THE KIND PEOPLE AT WORLD HORSE WELFARE.

[@asrotties]

I so wish there was such a lovely program here in the US. Such fabulous people working for the better of the horses. Brilliant!

[@bettyhappschatt3467]

Love to listen to HRH The Princess Royal talk about horses. She is always pleasant but with horses she has a special vibe.

[@nightcore4life224]

i love the sounf of the horse chewing thr hay

[@MsRebeccaleanne]

Very heart warming that our royal will adopt as well! Think i may take a trip to my local WHW one day :-)

[@randybutler4772]

The Royals are great horse people. These comments of consideration are very interesting in evaluating this match. Thank you to HRH for sharing information that could open rehoming to others.

[@adelezierler1547]

Thank you Princess Ann for taking Annie the horse in your care. I am sure she'll have a great life.

[@sarahcooper3378]

Would have liked to have seen her riding. She is a wonderful horsewoman and I can imagine she would have great fun with her new stead.

[@lindawatt8070]

I just love princess Anne she is my favorite of the royal family. God bless her always .

[@gemmabraga9580]

Princess Anne. Hardworking, down to earth & understated. The best of the Royals (along with the Queen)

[@melodymoore9765]

I love this video. The Princess Royal, Olympic Champion. I love this charity and I love that this beautiful horse has a new home. Totally lovely.

[@lorispataro763]

The princess is wonderful!

[@sherryd3299]

Good for the princess and good for the horse. Well done to the charity!!

[@SilElizabethE]

Thanks you Princess

[@marybrantley2160]

Wonderful, wonderful, and finally some common sense!!! Wish more people could do as much for these fabulous animals!!!

[@rohansrider]

A real quality animal. PA knew she had a good one there. What a lovely life for them both!

[@roseault6335]

If I had as much money as hrh I'd buy all of those horses x

[@lizoliver4407]

Meghan could learn so much from this lady. Such a shame she couldn't have spent more time with Harry's aunt learning to be less glamorous & more hardworking & down to earth.

[@STELLAICEROX]

Annie is a very lucky little pony!!

[@TeganxxxBobbyDazzler]

Gorgeous mare! What a lovely programme.

[@monicaswavel6074]

Beautiful example set by the Princess Royal! Lovely mare, and lovely work by WHW.

[@PixieLove5]

What a beautiful woman. I true Princess. What an honor to be chosen by her! That horse is one lucky horse! Im jealous!

[@ELNS97]

This makes me smile

[@kimberleybrown6617]

God bless HRH The Princess Royal!

[@emmajrose5329]

I have a welsh cob too! He's a 15hh gelding named Flynn. He's a liver chestnut with a blonde mane. What I love about him is that his registered show name is Willow Bran Bow Danielle 😂

[@Fern635]

Princess Anne is the BEST royal

[@stephengibson3982]

I love how they make the most horrifying looking fer ball into the worlds most amazing horse/pony. I wish whw was in Canada.

[@rooismum1023]

I am late to this video, it was very interesting to see. I wonder if HRH The Princess Royal and Annie are still enjoying each others company?.. I do hope so.

[@amandaturner8928]

Fantastic welfare program, it is wonderful. This should be a worldwide program. God bless you all.

[@orlahogan9269]

I also wish that Australia had a whw organisation because I would be lining up to adopt many horses and I think that you guys are amazing in every way because of what you do.

[@pamelahunter2053]

I love this story and the beautiful horse that P. Anne chose to take home. Narrator is very good.

[@luguy8347]

What a lucky horse. HRH, love it. Gosh, Princess Anne is wonderful, intelligent and grand. She is a very calm and easygoing person. I really like this rehoming horses. World Horse Welfare.

[@mrbluenun]

Thanks for the upload. Respect to every single person not least the owner or director of the centre and the Princess who with her many years of experience knows what she likes and can assess a horse well.

[@lexifeldmann5353]

I'm an American avid horse lover and rider. I would prefer to adopt a horse, rather than support another horse breeder. Unless you are breeding endangered breeds, we don't need any MORE horses. Enough are being slaughtered due to overproduction so, why support another breeder? Adopting is much better and, I wish I could get one of WWW's adoptable horses! Like they say, it frees up a new stall, and, they do everything for and to the horse needed to give them the best chance at a new life!

[@tieetop]

Nice horse, lovely big eye and nostrils, and head set, neck. from what is seen of the body/legs when walking, looks like a real good horse.

[@shazz4804]

Yay, this lovely horse has found a lovely new home, good outcome all round. So nice to see these videos.

[@francessweeney2308]

Rehoming a horse is a viable option, as you get more information about the animal than from the dealer,really doesn't know the horse at all. Like buying a horse, it's not likely to find the right one the first time;but WHW will be able to contact you when something suitable becomes available.

[@sxyfaye]

I've rehomed a rescue filly :) x

[@deborahkemp7143]

Annie the pony is quite a chow hound.she may have come from hell, but is gonna live the life of Reilly now. What a lucky pony, lucky HRH Anne. Both are winners.

[@junepontrelli7383]

what a wonderful person .god bless her

[@carolinetattersall519]

what a fab easy to listen to lady xx

[@flanneryred5755]

This young woman that speaks for the adoption program is so well spoken and professional. What a perfect spokesperson for them!

[@waynebrasler]

The British Royal Family is fascinating. I've known people who worked for the family in several capacities, and people who knew people, and the consensus is the family while being royal also is a real family not much given to airs. Look at the tour scheduled and you will be amazed and how hard they work and how much they travel and all the good causes in which they are involved.

[@fullstrutn]

+Wayne Brasler I've talked to people who have met the family and say many kind words about them

[@pamtufnell6751]

Love welshes

[@CHEVYedsf]

Id wish America had world horse welfare. Id adopt in a heartbeat.

[@MsKirstenx]

If princess Anne thinks these horses are good enough to partner with then that good enough for me!

[@prossertv3684]

If I lived in the UK or where ever world horse welfare is I would definately rehome a horse from them.

[@nikkib2143]

A perfect fit, every pot has a lid ❤ x.

I want to re home a pony now!

[@hendrixuntildeath7481]

She seems very down to earth, to me. I don't know what she's like behind closed doors, but nobody's perfect... we all have our little idiosyncrasies, so I'm not judging her.

[@dianepatching742]

What a wonderful story. You can see the Princess Royal’s love of horses comes from her late mother. I hope Annie enjoys her time at Gatcombe & the Princess Royal enjoys hacking with her.

[@INTOASECRETLAND]

I like Princess Anne, down to earth.
