Princess Bea lands new job - as a shop assistant at Selfridges
Princess Beatrice, who, as fifth in line to the throne, must be used to being waited on herself, has landed a new job - as a shop assistant at Selfridges.
Prince Andrew and Fergie's daughter has a new - unpaid - post as a personal shopper for VIP customers, which she is undertaking as a work experience in her gap year.
Her job - which she'll carry out from 9-5 for the rest of the month - involves fetching and carrying for rich customers.
So far, the items that the working Bea has sold include an £825 Matthew Williamson summer frock, a £310 Burberry jacket and a pair of £175 James Jeans trousers.
Bea herself dressed in a smart black dress, wide waist belt and flat shoes for her down-to-earth duties.
A Selfridges source told The Sun: 'Beatrice is a natural. Our personal shoppers are popular with wealthy Arabs, celebrities and footballers' wives.'
