Princess Anne’s Live TV Awkward Moment With Six Nations Hero

Watch the Guinness Six Nations at your local Greene King sports pub.

Gregor Townsend’s side bounced back from their opening defeat to Italy in style, reclaiming the trophy for the seventh time in nine meetings with their oldest rivals.

However, it was the post-match presentation that grabbed attention. As Tuipulotu approached to receive the silverware, live footage showed him appearing to move in for an embrace — only for Princess Anne to step back, place a hand on his shoulder and briefly speak to him before handing over the cup.

The clip quickly did the rounds on social media, with fans reacting to the slightly awkward exchange.
