Anne, Princess Royal has received numerous titles, decorations, and honorary appointments as a member of the British royal family and the sister of King Charles III of the United Kingdom and the other Commonwealth realms. Each is listed below; where two dates are shown, the first indicates the date of receiving the title or award (the title as Princess Anne of Edinburgh being given as from her birth) and the second indicates the date of its loss or renunciation.

Royal and noble titles and styles

15 August 1950 – 6 February 1952: Her Royal Highness Princess Anne of Edinburgh 6 February 1952 – 15 November 1973: Her Royal Highness The Princess Anne 15 November 1973 – 13 June 1987: Her Royal Highness The Princess Anne, Mrs Mark Phillips 13 June 1987 – present: Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal

From birth, thanks to letters patent issued by her grandfather George VI on 22 October 1948, Anne was a British princess with the style of Royal Highness and the territorial designation "of Edinburgh". Upon her mother's accession to the throne in 1952, the territorial designation was dropped and she became styled as "The Princess Anne". After she married Captain Mark Phillips in 1973, she was styled as "The Princess Anne, Mrs Mark Phillips" until her mother created her Princess Royal, an appellation given only to the eldest daughter of the sovereign, on 13 June 1987. Anne is the seventh Princess Royal since the title was first granted to Mary, daughter of Charles I. The previous holder was Anne's great-aunt Mary, daughter of George V. As the wife of Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, she is entitled to use the title of Lady Laurence, because the wife of a knight (Sir) may use the prefect Lady before the Knights surname. However, a princess who has been granted the title of HRH The Princess Royal will not customarily combine it with her style by marriage.
