The Princess Royal is confirmed to host an historic event at Buckingham Palace in May.
The King's loyal sister, 73, will be the hostess with the mostest as she holds a garden party for the Not Forgotten Association at the London residence on 17 May.
The charity supports military veterans and wounded serving personnel through a varied programme of social activities and a garden party has been held at Buckingham Palace in support since 1921.
Princess Anne took over the patronage from the Duchess of Kent in 2000, but the charity's first ever royal patron was Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood.
While the Princess Royal often plays host at the Not Forgotten Association garden party, other royals who have stepped in are the Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Harry, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
Garden parties will also take place at the palace on 8 and 21 May with royal attendance still to be confirmed.

In the coming months, the royal family's spring and summer calendar includes annual events such as the Chelsea Flower Show, the Buckingham Palace Garden Parties, Trooping the Colour and Royal Ascot.

At each one, 8,000 people are invited to tea and that's well in hand now, those invitations have gone out, people are buying their hats and their new suits, and it's going to be absolutely a day in the lifetime and no one wants to let them down and rearrange those things so that will carry on."
The King was joined in Windsor on Easter Sunday by his siblings and their respective spouses – Princess Anne and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and their son, James, Earl of Wessex, and the Duke of York.
