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.[4] The previous holder was Anne's great-aunt Mary, daughter of George V.

    As the child of a daughter of the monarch, Anne would not usually have been accorded the title of princess or the style Royal Highness. However, on 22 October 1948, letters patent were issued granting these to any children of Princess Elizabeth and Philip.
