Princess Beatrice quits her job for a new career

Princess Beatrice turns her back on her fourth job in five years.

But rumours swirl the royal was fired, after she turns her back on her fourth job in five years.

Princess Beatrice has reportedly resigned from her New York job to make a bid at launching her own start-up company.

The daughter of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson Duchess of York has grand plans to become a business consultant and has given up her steady job to branch out on her own.

It’s the fourth job she’s left in the past five years, but this time she reportedly has a firm plan in place to embrace her “entrepreneurial ambitions”.

But not immediately, as the Princess is currently holidaying in the Greek Islands with a group of friends, following a previous sojourn a few weeks ago to the south of France.

It was reported in June that the 27-year-old had actually been let go from her New York position, but this was denied by her aides who said she’d only been in Britain because of a “work project” and to attend Queen Elizabeth’s 90th birthday celebrations.

But the Daily Mail revealed recently that Beatrice had not been to her work for two months and her employers Sandbridge had said she was no longer with the company.

Close insiders have now revealed the young royal is pursuing her start-up business with the full backing of her former workplace and bosses.

“She is creating a start-up consultancy backed by, and in association with, the group she worked with.

“She and some other people have set up a consultancy business under the auspices of Sandbridge Capital,” the source confessed.

The friend of the Princess reiterated that she had not been sacked, saying: “She was working, she resigned and is now concentrating her efforts on this start-up.

“She wanted to be more entrepreneurial, so she has set up her own unit within the group, but as a separate unit.”

Another friend lashed out people gossiping about the job status of the Queen’s granddaughter.

“Beatrice is a young girl making her own way in the world and finding her feet,” the friend explained. “She should be applauded for striking out on her own, not vilified.”
