Isla Phillips turns 12! Her life in pictures from baby to young lady

Posted by Janel Helmers on Sunday, September 29, 2024

Princess Anne's granddaughter is growing up so fast

    The late Queen's great-granddaughter Isla Phillips celebrates her 12th birthday on 29 March. 

    Isla, who is 20th in line to the British throne, is the younger daughter of Peter and Autumn Phillips and one of Princess Anne's five beloved grandchildren.

    Must see

    She has one sibling, her older sister Savannah, age 13 – there is just a year and three months between the girls and we often see them having fun together at sporting events with their family.

    Take a look back at some of Isla's sweetest photos so far...
