Hard to believe that was her first interview. She did very well and came across as very genuine. Well done Beatrice!

[@leeann152]

It's not her first interview

[@jennibarnes140]

Her first live on a TV channel, look at her world wide ambassadorship speaking live on a world stage with world leaders. One of many of hers, Fergie's and Eugene's charities. The mayor of nyc and others invite her +++++

[@ritageorge2348]

What a lovely young lady she has become. A really genuine woman. Well done Beatrice.

[@gwblev]

Great interview. Princess Beatrice is very articulate. She should be brought to the front.

[@margarethawksworth8865]

yes she should be doing more work for the royal family give her more charity jobs to I’m sure there’s too ment for the older royals to do and give Zara and her husband a job in the firm ❤

[@Georgina9109]

What a pleasure to hear HRH focus attention on her charity Outward Bound. No word salad from this princess

[@coulterry67]

Beatrice would be an asset as a working royal, even part time ❤

[@shirleyvanderheijden5934]

I thought the Queen didn’t want part time royals!

[@user-vm2hn4yl1t]

No thanks. No Yorks.

[@genoaroseb.1705]

Lovely to see such a nice woman who grew up in privelege and is willing to donate her time to helping others. I wish she would become a working Royal and help even more.

[@jka8782]

If she didn't continue to donate some of her time for charities the UK taxpayers would get rid of them. She or the royal family are not doing the public a favor ...their privilege life for service to their country. The men and women of the arm forces give a lot more for less...imo

[@mjdin4705]

​@@jka8782 very true.

[@jangrime7050]

​@@jka8782she is not a working Royal

[@SassySar]

What a lovely lady and eloquent speaker.

[@groovin2mytune285]

Princess Beatrice rocked that interview. She kept focus on her charity, no matter what questions came her way. Great job!

[@pauper177]

well done Princess Beatrice, we need to see more of you, lovely young lady !!!!

[@zoehumphreys8925]

She came across as very nice and unpretentious, and you could tell she knew what she was talking about. Clearly very involved in her charity. The King should use her more in other Royal appearances and duties.

[@sandragostanian8878]

She is lovely! Both sisters have been through so much with their parents’ family & health issues. Praying for all of them. God bless them all.

[@millymay0025]

Nice to see Princes B talking, she sounds intelligent, empathetic and very eloquent, with a down to earth twist. Lovely positioning of her charity and work. Well done B, you came across as really endearing!

[@Richardryan84]

Yeah bring her up front, In the royal family, she is a delight

[@zoesummer3646]

I think she would make a good working royal.

[@user-ju6ud4go6b]

She speaks very well and with enthusiasm regarding the charity.

[@CharlotteJones21]

Like Princess Beatrice-so cool and relatable person So down to Earth

[@ccasey1904]

Princess Beatrice has really come into her own in the last few years. 😊

[@sonnymiracle]

Well Done and Bravo to HRH Princess Beatrice and all involved with such a great cause!

[@Kay-ph1kb]

Well done Princess Beatrice - you speak so well and we hope to see more of you.

[@ccgreene1]

Fantastic piece! Beatrice is quite a well spoken woman, and her first live interview was brilliant. She has the skill and confidence to be an asset to her family, especially at this time of upheaval. Glad to hear her mum is not only cancer free, but thriving and living her best life. Well done, Beatrice!!!

[@donaldwarriner1640]

Beatrice so articulate. First time I've had a chance to put a voice and thoughts with the person.

[@karenkratzer7036]

Love Beatrice she did a great job. She is a very good speaker.

[@nancywright6831]

From Australia well done Princess Beatrice, everyone is proud of you , wish you all the best and well wishes to your Mother Hope she gets well soon.

[@gilliandianeryan1493]

I thought she spoke very well about her Charity ,beautiful to look at as well .I think she should be brought into doing more work for the Royal Family ,especially at this time when the Princess Catherine is unable to work ,at the moment .

[@ElizabethBSoCal]

Agree

[@DE-xt7jv]

I don’t, too much of a loose cannon

[@robnewman6101]

I Agree with her.

[@martijohnsonmorningcircle5245]

How is she a lose canon?

[@tanithschneider3051]

@@martijohnsonmorningcircle5245Eugenie is a leaker and spills all the news she hears about the Wales to Haz. I don’t know about Beatrice.

[@eileenboles8645]

She actually seems normal & likeable. Expected a posher accent.

[@SeniorScooby]

Another RF secret weapon. She is a real asset to the RF family not because of who she is but because of how well she communicates with warmth, humour and authenticity. Well done Beatrice. 👏👏

[@sandyhaggland4430]

Just like her mommy so sweet kind fun loving.... Well done Beatrice stay as sweet as you are... You do your parents proud

[@karincraig8169]

What a good surprise to me listening to her for the first time. She can play a huge role for the royals.

[@sallytedesco2192]

Good interview. Nice to hear her speak sounds informative and smart. Beatrice would be an asset as a working royal.

[@bwhitedale]

What a wonderful and articulate girl. Great interview! Would really love to see more of her !

[@et1016]

She’s lovely.

[@Cherish..2]

She reminds me of her grandmother Queen Elizabeth

[@ClaireL77777]

All the best Beatrice ❤

[@Sharon-zi1xn]

I think she is lovely, and a credit to her Mum, aways liked Fergie to, whatever other people think about her, down to earth! Beatrice was very close to the queen to, i would imagine they had a very special bond! Not so keen on her sister though! Wish Fergie all the best to!

[@cathyspiller7154]

I LOVED hearing about Sarah! I'm glad that Bea could speak of her. I miss seeing about them and now Grandbabies!

[@katfanker]

What a sweetheart!

[@Stargazer-28]

Beautiful, intelligent, humble and very relatable. Well done for a first interview. Just imagine how amazing she will be after doing more interviews. Beatrice is a hidden gem and the royal family should be very proud of her! 💕

[@aka_rook]

Beatrice is so lovely.

[@user-dj9cz2qr2r]

What an amazing young woman bless her and family ❤

[@monicamailman3796]

Wow, Beatrice has that charm. How marvelous. So pretty too.

[@kerrieharrison4773]

Beatrice did a wonderful job in raising awareness of this Outward Bound charity and her other charities. Wishing good luck to all the participants of the challenge.

[@user-ls9sc2qn1o]

Would be lovely to see HRH represent the King and the Royal family ❤

[@joanne4758]

*No one can deny the importance of the working royals and the amount of time and dedication they give, but for the Yorks the freedom they have has enabled them to tread their own path, and it would be wrong to take that away.* (I thought this summed it up nicely. Rgds.)

[@terrydougherty5714]

Princess Beatrice is a great speaker. Could listen to her all day!!! Hope King Charles finds a place for her to assist the Firm. She would do a really good job.

[@jude1515]

Good interview and prayers to her mother.

[@MISt-BStrng7]

High compliments to Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice, a strong young woman, beautiful person. I’m proud of her. Media can be pretty sharp in their feed on people, so it’s a pleasure to hear and see her. Wishing her well.

[@bd6994]

She’s comes across as very nice 💖

[@CatsandJP]

Let’s be honest …how many people put the royals down for having a privileged life?….the majority like to criticise and criticise them…but…seeing someone like Beatrice doing some good in the world…..should make those naysayers feel absolutely ashamed of themselves…..well done to any royal who are helping people.

[@lindymcbroom953]

She has blossomed motherhood suits her

[@maryomeara3069]

She is fantastic should def be upfront more

[@zen20128]

What a BEAUTIFUL young woman, HRH, Bea has become ❤❤❤

Good luck Beatrice x

[@peeg09]

I like Princess Beatrice. Think she's very like her mum.

[@patriciad.7309]

She did very well indeed!

[@Marlen137]

She should become a working royal.

[@bhav9229]

She's brilliant!

[@voices_vary]

Resilience!! It's so good to hear someone talk about resilience. Everyone is morosely focusing on trauma, trauma, trauma, forgetting that humans are extremely resilient!!! Look ahead!!

[@elainegoad9777]

I always like Fergie. Real down to earth person. Sorry she is ill.

[@amy83079]

I love this! I’ve never before seen a member of the royal family in a live interview! Interviews are usually scripted or rehearsed. In a live interview they come across as a real person -- love it!

[@rachelabbott9393]

Very happy to hear that Sarah has come through it all and in the all clear! 😊

[@christinegeorge9532]

Shame on those people will give those comments we are not our mothers and fathers and should not be blamed for what they did I do not know her personallybut she came across as a lovely caring young lady and she should be judged for what she does and not for what her parents did all the best darling New Zealand originally from Wales ❤

[@kerynmcmahan3621]

Very impressed with the lovely Princess Beatrice. She could definitely help the Royal Family!

[@amy83079]

Outward Bound is indeed an absolute wonderful organization!!

[@lujinahjfairi3760]

At last a royal woman with a beautiful voice, I can listen to with ease.

[@jinxysanchez2990]

A great welcome to Princess Beatrice - it's good to hear about your charity. Look forward to seeing more from you.

[@Hiddentravel]

This just showed up on my KZbin feed. If I had seen it earlier, would have shared it more on social media. Looks like Beatrice was on the main observation deck of the Empire State Building (86th floor). The same they filmed part of the movie Sleepless in Seattle.

[@Svsss477]

Very natural and well spoken!

[@alexhaynes7220]

Her and her sister should and be do more for the royal family ❤😂🎉😢😮😅

[@gaynorross9783]

They probably would if asked

[@warriorgirl8118]

Ilove how she says family first because that is were you prioritizing her life she rocks for her love of family and charity 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@rosemariebrautigam-smith9630]

Princess Beatrice is a great person to help the Royal Family at their time of need . I cant understand why the king will not ask her to help im sure she would.❤

She is charming and lovely.

Secondary cancer is a major concern, yet Fergie is out and about, helping and setting an example for her daughters work in their numerous active charties. ❤❤❤❤❤

Princess Beatrice, what a wonderful job you did on this video. I am so proud of you. You have always seemed so shy to me and you were just amazing. I am so proud of you.

Wow. Brilliantly done interview. Hat a credit she is to the late Queen and her family. I agree with the comments here. They should bring Beatrice to the front.

[@albairisvelazquez8630]

God bless you Princess Beatrice

[@8swerve]

I like Beatrice. Seems like a good chick. Clearly a child of her parents. Her mother is a brave and fun gal I remember. Bea has Mums happiness and I hear dads a charmer too no wonder she's so likeable.

[@leoniemoar5409]

She sounds smarter than her mother and father.

[@jackiebenjamin8772]

It's because they have lived a different life to their parents they both have lived and n NY.
