Prince Charles and Princess Anne seemed very close when they were much younger. This is mainly because they were born just two years apart.

In an unearthed photo, a young Prince Charles and Princess Anne are having a blast while playing and dancing on the sand. They are both half-naked and are wrapped in their white towel.

Prince Charles’ hair looks very dark in the snap. His right hand is on his waist, and his left hand is up in the air. Since he’s dancing, Prince Charles looks as if he’s busting his moves with all his might.

The heir to the throne is seemingly shaking his bum from left to right, and Princess Anne seems very entertained. The young Princess Royal’s hair is very blonde in the photo.

She seems to be copying her older brother’s moves because Princess Anne’s hands are also up in the air. She has a huge smile on her face, but it cannot be denied that Prince Charles has more attitude when dancing.

The royal siblings are both barefoot in the picture since they are standing on the sand.

But years later, it seems that Prince Charles and Princess Anne’s relationship changed. After all, the royal siblings couldn’t be more different from each other.

In the documentary “The Real Princess Anne,” Countess Mountbatten of Burma, said that Princess Anne was always happy and full of life when she was younger.

“She was what one calls a tomboy, really. Like all those types of children, she could be quite naughty – in a perfectly nice way – mischievous is perhaps a better word… In great contrast to her brother, who was much quieter. He enjoyed his penny too but not in the same way as Princess Anne, ” she said.

Prince Charles, on the other hand, is more serious but he also exerted more effort to become friendly towards other people. This is because Prince Charles knew at such a young age that he would become King.
