Princess Beatrice was recently seen enjoying herself at a friend’s birthday celebration while questions remain about her attendance at her cousin’s upcoming wedding. The intimate party, held at La Posta Vecchia hotel in Rome, was hosted by Juliet Wine founder Lauren De Niro Pipher, who just turned 40. Several Instagram photos captured the fun-filled event, with Beatrice joining a group of friends in various outfits and engaging in lively dancing.
De Niro Pipher shared her joy on social media, describing the gathering as a harmonious mix of friends from different countries, emphasizing the joy, laughter, and togetherness experienced throughout the celebration. Meanwhile, Beatrice has maintained a low profile in recent months following the Epstein files’ release, which brought attention to her parents’ connections with Jeffrey Epstein.
The princess’s attendance at her cousin Peter Phillips’ wedding this weekend remains uncertain, with speculations about her presence alongside her sister Eugenie, who is expecting her third child. Peter, a member of the royal family, is set to marry NHS nurse Harriet Sperling in Gloucestershire, with many notable royals expected to be in attendance.
Should Beatrice and Eugenie decide to attend, it would mark their first public appearance with their royal relatives since the Epstein files were made public earlier this year. Reports suggest that the sisters are mindful not to overshadow the wedding and are still deliberating their participation in the private ceremony.
Peter, who is 19th in line to the throne, was previously married to Autumn Kelly and has two daughters. His upcoming nuptials with Harriet, an NHS pediatric nurse, will take place in a private ceremony at All Saints Church in Cirencester. The couple made their public debut in 2024 and announced their engagement shortly after. Their relationship has been closely followed by royal watchers, with their upcoming wedding generating significant interest within royal circles.
The wedding festivities are eagerly anticipated by royal enthusiasts, as the couple prepares to exchange vows in a private and intimate setting, surrounded by close family and friends.
