Could Princess Beatrice be gearing up for a Hollywood-like escape across the pond, following the glamorous footsteps of her cousin, Prince Harry? As the drama surrounding her father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and the Jeffrey Epstein scandal unfolds, the royal family is once again thrust into the unyielding glare of the spotlight. The buzz around Malibu and beyond is that Beatrice might just be done with the unwanted attention.

The whispers have grown louder, suggesting that Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, are contemplating a big move to the United States. Their marriage, now nearing its sixth year, has seen Edoardo frequently commuting between the States and the UK, which could be paving the way for this potential relocation. According to MailOnline, the couple is considering this shift as a "fresh start" – a chance to escape the lingering shadows of the ongoing royal scandal.

A source close to the couple shared that such a move "would've been unthinkable a few years ago," yet Beatrice's sister, Eugenie, may have already blazed the trail. "The feeling is that if they stay in the UK, they will just be sitting ducks because, let’s face it, the Andrew and Sarah problem isn’t going to go away..." Another intriguing tidbit? Both sisters remain in touch with their cousin Harry, who reportedly offered advice, hinting at a potential stay in sunny California.

The royal drama took another turn in October 2025 when King Charles III stripped Andrew of his Prince title and served an eviction notice for Royal Lodge. Despite the family turbulence, Princess Beatrice, 37, and Princess Eugenie, 36, retain their royal honors as granddaughters of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Neither is a working royal, opting instead for careers outside the confines of their esteemed lineage.

With Beatrice and Edoardo possibly seeking serenity in the States, only time will tell if they carve out a new chapter under the Californian sun, embracing the laid-back SoCal lifestyle and, perhaps, a touch of Malibu-style drama.
