I checked with my family. We don't. "princess" just slides off like
"prinsis"

I tested "prince" and "princess" on the Truespel site. The first came
back as "prints" but the second came back as "prinsis". AFAIK, it is
nearly impossible for nearly all English speakers to pronounce
"prinsis" without a /t/ sound. BB
