The royal family

What about Beatrice & Eugenie?

I’m not sure what to think tbh. On one hand they must be so so mortified; on the other they enjoy all the perks of Royalty and their position in the RF despite their revolting father.

How do you see it?

Personal data is also exempt from disclosure from Freedom of Information Act requests. See on the ICO website where they set out all the exemptions:

Section 40(2) – Personal information
This exemption covers the personal data of third parties…where complying with the request would breach any of the principles in the UK GDPR.
This exemption can only apply to information about people who are living; you cannot use it to protect information about people who have died.

So no, individual members of the royal family are not treated differently to the rest of us. They just have a specific mention giving the same rights that everyone else has - probably because they would receive far more requests about their personal data than general members of the public would.

ico.org.uk/for-organisations/foi/guide-to-managing-an-foi-request/exemptions/list-of-exemptions/#section40.2

Obviously, personal information is protected (that’s a given). Where there is personal information it is redacted. Your argument would mean that there would be no need of the Freedom of Information Act but that is clearly not the case. The royals ARE treated differently and are EXEMPTED from it.

She's shameless just like her mother and father

stillavid · 10/11/2025 14:28

That's certainly the implication I think.

NewAgeNewMe · 10/11/2025 14:32

Said on another thread that I think Apple and Tree come to mind. Also I think time to strip titles from all except working royals but can be kept by them if they have retired. IMO.

Exactly.

They can do what they want (within reason) if they don’t carry British royal titles, in the same way the Tindalls do. Non working Royals should not be using British Royal titles, it needs a full shake up now and sooner rather than later.

I honestly don't think she has any awareness about how bad it looks. She generally appears to lack awareness, as she was the one who thought her dad doing an interview was a splendid idea.

It shows what a precarious thing a monarchy is. If Charles had died in a skiing or other accident before he fathered legitimate children, Andrew would be king, and Beatrice would be heir to the throne!!!

jumpingthehighjump · 10/11/2025 15:01

How can she be so stupid? How can she have no awareness, what on earth are these people on!
Doesn't she have friends, or what about her dopey husband....why don't they say...Bea, don't you think this is not a good look...maybe give this a miss until everything has died down and perhaps give up schmoozing middle eastern oligarchs altogether

jeffgoldblum · 10/11/2025 15:10

Disgusting behaviour! 😡

CrimsonStoat · 10/11/2025 15:12

Didn't she have her BMW stolen because she left the keys in it and the doors unlocked, because she didn't realise you had to lock things?

Her PPO got a bollocking for it. Presumably locking cars isn't something that's her responsibility.

Yes why is no one advising her? Everyone says her husband is a multi millionaire but its he? He has a business that doesn't make that much and gets a small business rebate, and Ib think it's part owned by his ex. He also has an older child to pay for. Doubt he's being educated at the local comp!

ishimbob · 10/11/2025 16:08

William and Kate also had a vacation this year on a luxury yacht courtesy of an Emirati royal. Beatrice isn't the only one taking Middle East freebies

CathyorClaire · 10/11/2025 16:09

Isn't she supposed to be some kind of tech guru? Working for some outfit that went tits up and got restructured?

WTF is she doing at an investment initiative? Confused

This is what I can’t compute. If I had a relevant degree & years at coal face in relevant industry I’d still feel under-qualified to take a seat at table. There is an arrogant self confidence it seems to all of them.

stillavid · 10/11/2025 17:08

I fail to see how she has any real expertise in the tech field. Honestly I would love to know how her and her sister fund their v expensive lifestyles as I don't think they have married as financially well as Kate's sister - well that's what I gleaned from the Windsors anyway ;)

I think the story about the Middle Eastern yacht was never proven in the press in spite of the DM sending journalists out to the greek islands. I suspect William is a little more aware of optics.

From the Windsors, Pippa to Meghan ‘that’s a 1 with 9 zeros’… ;)

@PinkPanther57 I literally quote that line about once a month ;)

I miss the Windsors. Such a great program. Johnny is a billionaire!

Give that Beatrice advised Andrew to do Newsnight, it is quite clear her judgement is lacking. But she inadvertently did the UK and all the abused women a favor as the interview displayed just how awful Andrew is and was the beginning of his end.

So, the silver lining is that her egregious behavior will have consequences she cannot outrun.

It’s brilliant! I bet Kate & Pippa love it too. The gypsy curse - hilarious.

I think you mean Pippahhhh

fabulous!

Harry’s great too! Although I suspect he’s not amused.

A problem is they’ve not been careful enough with email trails etc. Too many have sight.

Did she know what he would be asked or how he would answer?

I mean to a point I can see that she loves her dad, probably believed him & thought he could explain things well enough.

I wonder if she realised that he come across as a lying pompous sleaze?
