A few weeks ago, I sent a survey asking if you were interested in taking a trip with me next year…and I just selected the location! On Thursday, I’m going to reveal the destination and an early access link exclusively for my paid subscribers. There are a limited number of early bird spots at a discounted price.

Remember all the discussion surrounding the fate of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie in the British Royal Family? At the time, I firmly said their positions aren’t at risk. We’d probably see them after a grace period.

I didn’t think the grace period would be a few days.

On Monday, Princess Beatrice popped up at the laboratories of Borne. It was her first charity event in the U.K. since her father, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor1, was stripped of his titles.

In all seriousness, Beatrice is the perfect Royal for a visit to the labs, “which fund research into how to prevent premature births.” Her daughter, Athena, was born several weeks prematurely in July.

It’s the timing that leaves something to be desired. And not just because of her father, because of Beatrice’s own activities.
