Princess Beatrice’s special role in the “most beautiful moment” of her mother’s life has been revealed.

Sarah Ferguson took part in a panel for Global Citizen NOW Health & Climate Financing Sessions last week.


The Duchess of York also officially launched her Youth Impact Council organisation last week at Manhattan’s Yale Club.

Princess Beatrice, the eldest daughter of Sarah and her ex-husband Prince Andrew, was supporting her mother in New York.

Beatrice originally flew to the Big Apple for her role as an ambassador for Made By Dyslexia.

Ferguson said: “It’s such an honour and a treat for me to have my daughter here to say, ‘Well done to my Mummy, here she is receiving this extraordinary moment in time at the launch of her own idea.’

“It was the most beautiful moment in my life because this is the legacy that I want to leave for my daughters and my grandchildren.”

Sabrina Elba and Brianna Fruean were also on the panel alongside Sarah Ferguson in New York.

The duchess has been involved with Global Citizen for the past year and came across Fruean partly through the Youth Impact Council.

Fergie said: “I am working with Sabrina as she is a millennial; the same age as my children.

“So we have her, me who is an old bag, and then there is Gen Z with Brianna, so the three of us on the stage made a very strong, compelling example of generational bridging.”

Brianna said regarding her appearance on the panel: “The Duchess was gracious with time, space and platform for me to express my passions.

“I wasn’t nervous as I had met her earlier in the year at GC NOW in Melbourne right before she took a trip to my home in Samoa.

“We had a little chat beforehand about her time in Samoa, so it was almost like being up there with a friend as she was so familiar with my home.”
