The royal family has wished the Princess Royal a happy 74th birthday.
Anne was rushed to hospital two months ago after suffering concussion and head injuries in an accident involving a horse while walking on her Gatcombe estate.
The princess underwent a phased return to public duties, but has forged ahead with her official engagements over the summer, travelling to Paris for the Olympics and, last week, attending the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

The monarchy’s official social media accounts shared archive images of the princess, alongside the message: “Wishing The Princess Royal a very Happy Birthday today!”
Among the pictures was a black and white photograph of a three-year-old Anne with her older brother Prince Charles, then five and now the King, sat among the daffodils at Royal Lodge, Windsor, in 1954.
The Royal Collection Trust posted a throwback portrait of the princess as a 21-year-old.

Dubbed the King’s right-hand woman in the wake of Charles’s cancer diagnosis, Anne is often seen as the hardest working royal and known for her dedication to duty and no-nonsense approach.
