What Princess Beatrice And Princess Eugenie Do For Work

There are many benefits and perks that come with being a member of the famous royal family. Contrary to popular belief, however, the life of a royal isn't care-free and full of endless feasts.

Despite their esteemed family lineage, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice don't receive any checks from the Sovereign Grant, the fund that helps to finance the Queen's duties. In reality, the two princesses have held real-lief jobs for many years, unlike Prince Harry or William.

Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew's children aren't full-time members, or "working royals", of the famous lineage. Despite their relationship to the current royal family, these children don't have to act in any official capacity, unlike the Duchess and Duke of Cambridge.

Even though Princess Beatrice attends some major events like Trooping the Color and the Royal Ascot, she doesn't have an official obligation. Prince Charles, on the other hand, had to attend over 500 events last year alone. This also means that full-time security isn't a perk she enjoys. In lieu of this full-time engagement, Princess Beatrice received a BA from Goldsmiths in history and has been working in consulting and financing. She recently worked in Sandbridge at a venture capital firm and at a software company called Afiniti, where, she is now working as the VP of Partnerships and Strategy according to their website.

Additionally, Princess Beatrice works on many nonprofit projects. She works as a global ambassador for Street Child, a nonprofit that was founded by Beatrice's mother. She works with the Berkshire Community Foundation, the Teenage Cancer Trust, and the Big Change Charitable Trust among many other nonprofits.

It's important to note Princess Beatrice still gets some assistance from her father. Prince Andrew, according to his website, supports his daughters through a private income. The Duke is also a recipient of the Royal Navy pension. His expenses are paid for by the sitting Queen's personal income. All of the Duke's official travel expenses in the UK are paid for by the Sovereign Grant. A majority of this money is pulled from the estates that are still within the royal family's ownership.

Princess Eugenie won't ever have to be concerned about money due to the support and wealth of her royal family. Despite her financial stability, the 29-year-old princess is currently pursuing an art career. Her father is supporting her financially and emotionally through this process. In 2016, the Duke of York gave a statement, cited by People Magazine, regarding the support for his daughters. He discussed his wish for his daughters to become working, modern young women who are also part of the Royal Family. It seems that the Duke's primary wish is that his daughters find their own passion and path outside the confines of the tradition of the family.

Beyond her several philanthropic efforts, Princess Eugenie has used her English literature and art degrees to land a job with a firm that conducts online auctions. She is now the director at Hauser and Wirth, a London art gallery.

Recently, her parents had to help with a major expense: a wedding. She married Jack Brooksbank last year in October. The Brooksbank Family and the Duke and Duchess of York chipped in for a lavish, opulent, and incredible wedding that lasted for multiple days. Reportedly, the Queen contributed her own sum from a private income. Taxpayers in Britain had to foot the security bill which cost a sum between half-a-million and $2 million.

The princess' new husband works in the hospitality business. Jack Brooksbank currently works for Casamigos as the European ambassador. This is a tequila created by actor George Clooney. Before this gig, Brooksbank was working at Mahiki as a manager. Mahiki is a nightclub in London that sees many royals such as Prince Harry. The couple is living at Kensington Palace in Ivy Cottage. This is just a few miles from Eugenie's art gallery.
