Princess Beatrice of York

From British Culture

Born 8 August 1988. Full name: Beatrice Elizabeth Mary Mountbatten-Windsor. Oldest child of Sarah Ferguson (Duchess of York) and Prince Andrew (Duke of York). Granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. One sister, Eugenie. Beatrice is seventh in line of succession to the British throne. Her parents got divorced in 1996, when she was 8 years old. Like her mother, she suffers from mild dyslexia. To help others, who also suffer from dyslexia, she made her disease public.


Interests

Sports (tennis, golf and riding the bicycle). Singing (school choir). She also does a lot of charity work, together with her mother. Since the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton in 2011 one definitely also has to add the wearing of outrageously ugly hats in public as one of her favourite pastimes.
