Currently, Princess Beatrice holds a position as vice president for software firm Afiniti and is not a working royal like her cousin Prince William. She does, however, serve as a royal patron for organizations such as the Helen Arkell Dyslexia Centre, the British Skin Foundation and the English National Ballet School.

Princess Beatrice has carried out several high-profile royal outings in recent months leading to speculation she could help to bolster King Charles' slimmed-down monarchy - and an insider has revealed

The Princess, who is patron of the Royal Ballet School, tried her hand at embroidery and spent time chatting about the art, which is widely used in theatrical costumes. It was seen as a show of support for her uncle King Charles, who is passionate about preserving traditional skills.

However, a palace insider has told Hello! magazine there is no plan for Beatrice to assume official royal duties despite her having stepped up to support the Windsors along with her sister, Princess Eugenie, while the King and Princess of Wales underwent cancer treatment.
