But this week, eagle-eyed royal watchers noticed something\u2026 interesting: one of those birthday posts was quietly deleted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As part of the celebration, the Palace had shared a post featuring 75 Facts About Princess Anne. Well, one of those facts appeared to be a mistake. In the now-deleted post, fact number 14 read: &#8220;Her Royal Highness also has two stepchildren from her second marriage to Sir Timothy Laurence, Tom and Amy Laurence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Cue the confusion. Social media quickly lit up with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/gabriel_t24\/status\/1955629457554973038\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:puzzled reactions;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">puzzled reactions<\/a>. \u201c#14 Tom and Amy Laurence? Either I\u2019ve gone crazy or Sir Tim has secret children,\u201d one user wrote. \u201cPretty sure this is an error, but how did that happen?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Another chimed in, \u201cAm I going a bit mad? Princess Anne has two stepchildren? That\u2019s news to me.\u201d While a third summed up what I&#8217;m sure a lot of people were thinking, writing, \u201cHave never heard that! If so, they\u2019ve certainly been kept under wraps!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As of now, Buckingham Palace hasn\u2019t issued any official comment about the error but the original &#8220;75 facts&#8221; post has been removed. The rest of the birthday content is still up, including a regal carousel post featuring Princess Anne and King Charles in full royal attire and a striking solo portrait of Anne in a chic all-cream ensemble.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">So, was it just a royal slip-up or something more? For now, your guess is as good as mine but the internet definitely noticed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Want all the latest royal news sent right to your inbox?
