Snuggled in close to the man who mended her heart, a beaming Princess Beatrice looked like the happiest girl in the world as she posed for her engagement photos back in September. After years of sadness, the young royal thought she’d finally found her fairytale with beau Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and she was delighted to share their news with the world.
But now, her dream is in tatters thanks to the nightmare that’s engulfed the royal family over Prince Andrew’s friendship with billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. And a devastated Beatrice – who celebrated the engagement last week without her father at her side – has told pals she’ll never forgive him for ruining what should be the happiest time of her life.
“Poor Beatrice, she’s absolutely beside herself,” tells a source. “She’d been so excited about her wedding and now she just feels humiliated and ashamed. Each week things just seem to get worse, and the idea of walking down the aisle on her dad’s arm appals her.”
Amidst earlier rumours she’d decided to cancel her engagement party, Beatrice and Edo ploughed ahead with the bash in London last Wednesday night after the Queen’s official Buckingham Palace Christmas luncheon.
While celebs including Robbie William’s wife Ayda Field and pop star Ellie Goulding were spotted arriving at the exclusive Chiltern Firehouse, there appeared to be one notable absence – her father.
