Princess Beatrice was pictured in a rare moment letting her hair down amongst friends at the Flackstock music festival on Monday.
The royal, 35, was a VIP attendee at the charity music event held at Englefield Estate in Berkshire. The festival, now in its third year, has raised over £495,000 for mental health in memory of Caroline Flack, the British presenter who died by suicide in 2020.

Rare royal tiara moments
© GettyTiara moments are few and far between for the British royal family nowadays.
What was once seen as an essential accessory for theatre trips, dinner dates and white tie occasions has dimmed down to a privilege strictly reserved for royal brides on their wedding day - or State Banquets, if the wearer is a senior royal.

The York tiara, a floral-shaped diamond scroll headpiece designed by Garrard, was famously worn by her mother Sarah Ferguson for her 1986 royal wedding with Prince Andrew. It was believed to be a present from her in-laws, the late Queen and Duke of Edinburgh.

It marked only the second time Beatrice had worn a tiara in public. The first was on her wedding day to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, where she dazzled in her late grandmother Queen Elizabeth II's Queen Mary Diamond Fringe.
The tiara, which is formed of 47 diamond bars alternated with smaller diamond spikes, was originally a necklace and transformed into a tiara in 1919 by court jewellers Garrard & Co for Queen Mary. It was worn by the then-Princess Elizabeth for her wedding to Prince Philip in 1947.
Sadly, it doesn't seem likely there will be any more tiara moments on the cards for Princess Beatrice anytime soon. For now, we'll have to make do with festival flower crowns.
