Ahead of welcoming her second child later this year, Princess Beatrice has once again stepped in to support the royal family on the world stage as she prepares to head to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in just a few weeks time. Rubbing shoulders with political heavyweights including Rachel Reeves and Angela Merkel, various public figures from all across the G7 and G20 countries, will be in attendance at the event, which takes place from 20 January to 24 January.
According to The Times, Princess Beatrice will be making a special appearance and participating in a panel looking at how sovereign wealth funds can be used to tackle climate change, with her participation coming just weeks ahead of her anticipated due date which is predicted to be some time in early Spring. The publication reported that the royal will be "looking at how private capital from family offices and sovereign wealth funds can be used to tackle climate change".

The high profile engagement is yet another sign of Princess Beatrice’s commitment to the royal family, which is perhaps unsurprising given she is one of the named Counsellors of State appointed by King Charles that can step in should he be unable to do so, including when signing routine documents and attending Privy Council meetings where needed.
All of The Counsellors of State are made up of royals in the line of succession that have reached the age of 21 or over. Among the other Counsellors are: the Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, the Duke of Edinburgh, the Duke of Sussex, the Duke of York and Princess Beatrice.
