The 25-year-old daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson began working at the international headquarters of the entertainment distribution company earlier this month, according to reports, after taking an extended break from working.

The young royal had previously worked at an investment capital firm after completing her university studies, but quit last year after 12 months in the job.

She then spent the rest of 2013 travelling with her businessman boyfriend Dave Clark, who works for Virgin Galactic, the space arm of Richard Branson’s company. Beatrice’s global travels last year included skiing in Aspen, holidaying over the new year in St Barts, a trip to Venice with her mother, and attending weddings and parties with her sister, Princess Eugenie.

Beatrice graduated from Goldsmiths College London in 2011 with a degree in history and history of ideas, after which she undertook several periods of work experience and unpaid internships in a bid to find a career.

Beatrice, who is sixth in line to the throne, elected to pursue a career instead of carrying out royal duties, but has not decided what she wants to do.

She is patron to two charities but rarely performs royal engagements solo.

Meanwhile Beatrice’s younger sister, Eugenie, has moved to New York where she recently began working at Paddle8, an online art and design auction house.
