"I don't think that's going to fit me - it might fit my granddaughters. They all cook, actually," she said of her four female grandchildren: daughter Zara Tindall's offspring, Mia and Lena, and son Peter Phillips' daughters, Savannah and Isla. (Peter also has a son: Lucas.) _ Princess Anne typically does not speak about her family in public. However, her son, Peter Phillips, once revealed that she relishes spending time with her grandchildren. "She loves seeing them ride [horses]. She loves having them round for Sunday lunches and taking them for walks - doing all the things that we would do as kids," the businessman said in the 2020 ITV documentary Anne: The Princess Royal at 70. _ According to Princess Anne's daughter Zara Tindall, although the Princess Royal is the hardest working member of the royal family, the 75-year-old often takes time to babysit her grandchildren. "We quite like leaving them on Sundays. We'll say, 'We'll pick them up later, bye!'" the Olympic equestrian said in the 2020 documentary about her mother. _ Unlike her brother, King Charles III, Princess Anne kept her children out of the spotlight by refraining from giving them official roles within the royal family. "From my point of view, I was obviously very lucky that my mother didn't give us any titles, so I really commend her on that," Zara Tindall once said. "We were very lucky that we got to [figure out our lives] a bit our own way. My family has a great work ethic as well, which I'm hoping they instilled in me and is still going to this day."
