Princess Beatrice and husband meet 'crisis management expert'

Princess Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, had dinner with a senior Spotify executive known for her crisis management skills.

The couple were photographed with Dustee Jenkins at the Michelin-starred Dorian restaurant in Notting Hill.

Beatrice appeared to be in good spirits with her husband during the evening out.

The gathering doubled as a birthday celebration for Jenkins, a New York-based tech industry figure considered one of the most respected women in the sector.

During the dinner date, she was spotted blowing out candles at the table.

Speaking to The Mail, a source said, "She's an old hand at crisis management.”Dustee would be a natural person for Beatrice, or any of the Yorks, to turn to for reputational management."

The dinner took place just days after Sarah Ferguson dismissed reports that she plans to release a memoir.

Princess Beatrice’s father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was stripped of his royal titles and evicted from Royal Lodge Windsor over his links to Jeffrey Epstein.
