Mica Paris, the soul singer, actress and TV presenter, received her MBE from Princess Anne in 2021 and she's disappointed that King Charles's no-nonsense sister is not our monarch.
'She's great,' Paris, 54, says. 'She told me, "You look the same," because I met her 27 years previously. I was in a play in Southampton, which she opened, and she came to meet the cast.
'I said, "Wow, how do you remember meeting me all those years ago?" She's amazing, and really should be the Queen. I just think she's got it going on, and I love her.'
