Your Favorite Olympians: Where Are They Now?

Princess Anne

The daughter of Queen Elizabeth is quite the decorated Olympian! In 1976, she became the first British Royal Family member to compete in the Olympics. She never earned a medal, but her high-profile status brought a lot of intrigue to the Games. She has always maintained an active role in the Olympics and was hands-on with organizing things for the 2012 Games in London. She also served as the British rep on the International Olympics Committee at the 2014 Games in Sochi.
