Princess Beatrice of York Current Events 16: July 2015-June 2017

[Mirabel]

Someone really needs to advise her on what styles to wear that compliment her.


LaRae

Yes, that swimsuit is not a flattering look.

Someone commented that it's important to dress for how you are, not for how you wish you are.
I think this is the mistake Beatrice often makes. She picks clothing that she thinks is attractive and fashionable, with no thought for how it looks on her.

 

[COUNTESS]

You are right. Perhaps, she should look in a mirror.

 

[Meadow]

Beatrice is in finance so why on earth would she be sent to look at fashions? It's not her job and sorry she hasn't even been there a year she has already been away from it for several weeks and this isn't the first holiday she has had while she has been "working". Most in finance work far more then 9 to 5 and sorry but I doubt Bea who has no background in finance would be able to work away from the office in less then a year. She always has Summer holidays and if you look back she seems to leave jobs around that time. Let's see if she goes back in a couple of weeks or if we continue to see her on holiday over the Summer months. As for the bikini it's very unflattering there are others that would suit her figure way more.

 

[Countessmeout]

Yes, she works in finances, but in the fashion world. And her company has many top end clients in London and Europe. It is not a stretch to think she may be doing work for them in London when home doing royal duties. Even people in finance get weekends off, she was in Monaco for a weekend. Again a private citizen, if her boss is not complaining then that says a lot. If she was missing from Trooping and other events people would be complaining that she wasn't supporting her grandmother. She really cant win.

 

[MARG]

Beatrice and Eugenie are never going to get a break. If they work people whine that they should be helping Granny, if they don't work, well it's the same song, different verse.

Bea's holiday and swimsuit are just a new chorus. Bea bashing is always a treat for those of a mine to do so.

 

[royal rob]

No Marg it's MO which I'm allowed to have as you are ?

The trick is to pick outfits that flatter the body shape, something that Bea hasn't mastered as yet.

Global business figures including Anuncio Ortega watched as the action unfolded, with a glittering turnout of Monaco society and guests from around the world. Prince Albert was joined at the prize giving by Grand Prix presenting sponsor Sapinda Chairman of the Board Lars Windhorst at the prestigious ceremony. Magnificent Monaco - NZ Horse & Pony

Leave it to the press to not print the full story on her trip to Monaco

 

[Mirabel]

I'm beginning to think that her job is more or less an honorary position. The company gets to have a royal on the masthead, and the RF gets to say that Beatrice is gainfully employed. Win/Win.

 

[RoyalHighness 2002]

I understand Charles wants a slimmed down monarchy for "financial" reasons but really why can't he just let the first born children of the York and Wessex families do royal engagements. IMO it seems like Bea likes to be involved in the family firm. For goodness sake she is the first blood royal princess of her generation. At the time when most of King George V's grandchildren were performing duties there was definitely more members working in the firm. If you add two more princesses who cannot pass on a title it really doesn't matter. IMO I seems like Eugenie will be Prince Michael of Kent (with a job) in the future. James will eventually be DofE one day and that will bring many opportunities for him. Just let Louise and Bea be working royals. Or just Bea if Louise isn't interested. But in my opinion in twenty years or so there will be a need for more working royals as many of the older members could begin to pass away and that is when Louise would start like a future Princess Alexandra. And this is not a gigantic number of royal grandchildren. I mean really Queen Victoria had forty two. Half of them probably were working royals or worked some how in the family firm.

Charles is not the head of The Royal Family. Her Majesty is, and she's decided that Beatrice should not be a part of the working royal family. Not full time anyway. Louise and James are far too young.

The notion that Charles wants a slimmed down Monarchy has never actually come from Charles himself. It's been continually made up and over written.

 

[duchesschicana]

Personally, I like their position as non working royals they get the best of both worlds this way and they don't cost anyone anything. With that said while HM decided not to have them as working royals who knows what was said in the years to come regarding their duty.

 

[Osipi]

I agree that the York girls have the best of both worlds right now.

The most likely culprit in the reasoning behind the York girls not working for the Firm at all and William, Kate and Harry working only as part time royals boils down to one five letter word. Money. More working royals mean more expenses to pay for and protection officers and all that goes with engagements and duties.
If the Firm has enough right now to cover what needs to be covered, why add on the extra expenses?

Princess Beatrice dives off yacht in Monaco in skimpy bikini | Daily Mail Online

OK - Bea & Dave have been together for years now and still - IMO - they do not look like a romantic couple at all. I've been guessing this relationship is merely platonic since Day One.

If those pics don't show a "romantic" couple, I don't know what would satisfy you. I doubt they'll ever show us doing more than that in view of a camera. There are plenty more other pics like these out there.

I think they look a helluva lot more "romantic" that William and Kate ever do.

 

[Pranter]

Will and Kate have shown many sweet romantic type moments. They've used their 'nicknames' for one another in public also.

Hi Roslyn - thank you for your post. No one has ever posted a series of photos to counter my view. In looking at the photos I feel I need to revise my view that there is no relationship there. Clearly there is and I stand corrected. There is even warmth between them.

They are good friends and have been together for years. I wish the best for Bea - it would be nice if they marry. Who knows what the future will hold.

I hope that Bea does not wind up in a Paddy McNally-type relationship where it is discovered very late in the game that the relationship was never going to go anywhere.

Thanks again Roslyn.

 

[Meadow]

I'm hoping they get married too it's getting to the stage of either move ahead or split. Maybe they won't until they want kids but with her Grandfather at 95 I'm sure he would like to see them married.

 

[royal rob]

Mmm maybe it's because her grandfather is still alive that's delaying things. If we believe what we are told about Phillip not liking Fergie it could be a awkward wedding. As they most likely aren't ready for babies I can't see a wedding anytime soon JMO

They aren't catholic. Just because you get married doesn't mean instant baby making

Prince Philip seems very close to his grandchildren. I highly doubt he would make a scene with Fergie, especially not at Bea's wedding.

When you are that young, length of dating is a pretty minimal deciding factor. Dating for 10 years when you are 28 is a lot different then if you are say 35.

 

[royal rob]

Don't know why talk of Catholics have come into this

[Meadow]

Me either.

I doubt Prince Phillip would have a problem with Bea getting married and I can't believe that she is waiting till he passes to marry. There are lot's of ways for him to avoid Sarah and I'm sure with his manners he could be polite with her just for his Granddaughters special day. 10 years is a long wait no matter how old you are. Could be she is a little marriage shy eventually something will happen they will either get engaged or split.

Because to you marriage mans kids. Your reason they aren't engaged.

Catholics traditionally don't believe in birth control and wouldn't marry unless they wanted kids. So your they wont marry until they want to start popping out kids sounded pretty Catholic. Maybe it just meant to have the mentality of the 50's.

 

[Pranter]

Ummm there are various faiths here in the US who don't believe in the use of artificial birth control, not just Catholics. Further Catholics are permitted to delay pregnancies by using natural methods, for various reasons.

Perhaps the use stereotypes should be avoided?

Sorry none of that makes sense. Most couple these days live together before marriage but don't get married till they are thinking of children. Nothing to do with their faith etc and I say most not all.

I agree. In my experience, a lot of couples live together and only get married - if they do get married - when they want to have children, because they prefer to do it in that order. It has nothing to do with any particular religion's attitude to contraception. I am sure those couples aren't celibate all those years before they marry, so that blows the religion/contraception idea out of the water.

 

[Meadow]

That's what I thought it has nothing to do with religion. It's something a lot of couples are doing some in fact a lot are even having children then marrying although I don't see Beatrice doing this. I remember when Marina Ogilvy had a child out of wedlock all the drama it caused that was back in the late eighties I don't know if it would cause the same reaction these days if one of the girls did go down that road. I just don't see them trying that though.

I don't click on The Mail but I finally got around to looking at pictures of that night from photo agency sites. I noticed that Beatrice attended with Antonia Packard.

Editorial Photos, Celebrity, News, & Sports Images | Rex

I'm pleasantly surprised that the tabloids didn't use those pictures to write some gossip article about Antonia and Harry getting back together. They showed restraint! Or maybe they were just worried about undermining their Harry-Ellie Goulding stories.

But after seeing pictures of the Yorks buddying with Chelsy, Cressida, and Antonia in the last month. I now conclude that I will fall over in shock if Harry doesn't marry a BFF of the Yorks. That seems to be a major requirement in what he looks for.

 

[sndral]

DM is reporting Beatrice has been let go from her New York 'job.' No surprise, the pattern is pretty clear, we stop seeing evidence that she's employed, we start seeing her on holiday signalling she's been fired or was allowed to resign and the palace doesn't say anything, her father's site continues to lie and say she 'works in business' and after several months she finds something else and 'sources' reveal her new position. Rinse and repeat, five times now.
She's just like her mom, always on the cusp of her next great business venture, but it never seems to work out.
