David Capellan was cruising along on his regular shift in the Big Apple when he stopped to pick up a group that included Princess Beatrice, her longterm boyfriend Dave Clark, and their newlywed pals Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis who got married in secret last month.
The famous foursome were reportedly out on the town celebrating Mila’s 32nd birthday.
In a move that reveals that even royalty and celebrities use cabbies like a cheaper from of life counselling, Caplellan took a selfie with the famous quartet and in the caption said that they used the time in his car to have a “crazy convo”.
“They were pretty hilarious,” Capellan later told E! News.

As for 27-year-old Beatrice, once upon a time Princesses lived sheltered lives away from the prying eye of the public, but in the age of the internet those days are long gone.
