Princess Beatrice (left), 35, was typically professional on Thursday as she put on a smiling display at a Dubai event intended to encourage collaboration between entrepreneurs in the UAE and the UK - just 24 hours after it was reported that her ex-boyfriend had died of an overdose. The event took place to mark the launch of a new partnership between Dubai-based think-tank the Fiker Institute and the UK's OPUS, which exists to help business leaders gain access to new opportunities. Princess Beatrice, who sits on the board of OPUS, delivered a speech at the event and could be seen talking to Dubai Abulhoul (right), the founder of the Fiker Institute.

Paolo Liuzzo was well-off, well-educated, smoothly handsome and extremely well connected - in other words, a man who had been dealt a hand of cards that can make life both worthwhile and rewarding. Appearances, however, can be deceptive. The good fortune that the fates had bestowed, which included a few months of global celebrity as Princess Beatrice 's first serious boyfriend, could not keep pace with a fast and unravelling life. He had a criminal record that included being charged with manslaughter and possession of cocaine and would go on to embarrass the Royal Family with lurid claims of drug-taking and hard partying.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: As the country's aristocrats make plans for the summer social Season, the 11th Duke of Roxburghe (left) may need to book a room at a Travelodge. For I hear that Charles Innes-Ker's stepmother (right) is selling the family's London pied-a-terre. The move by Virginia , the Dowager Duchess of Roxburghe, follows her exit from magnificent Floors Castle, the family's ancestral seat in Scotland, after the death of her husband, Guy, the 10th Duke. The three-bedroom flat in South Kensington, which was registered in Virginia's name, has been put on the market for £3.8million. It was bought for £481,500 in 2007.

The playboy ex of Britain's Princess Beatrice heartlessly conned a best friend out of his life savings just months before his shocking drug overdose death, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal. Paolo Liuzzo begged close pal Arshad Sadikeen to lend him nearly $60,000 so he could take his latest conquest on a luxury Caribbean cruise. When he failed to pay him back Arshad launched a lawsuit to claw back the cash - but Liuzzo's sudden death at age 41 means the money is gone for good.

Paolo Liuzzo is said to have been battling a cycle of drugs, gambling, violence and debt before he passed away aged 41. Beatrice is said to be devastated by the news of Liuzzo's death after police were called to a room at the luxury citizenM Miami Worldcenter hotel on the afternoon of February 7, where rooms cost $300-a-night. It had already been a difficult few weeks for Beatrice. On January 22 it was revealed her mother, Sarah, the Duchess of York, had been diagnosed with malignant melanoma - a form of skin cancer. MailOnline can reveal that he was laid to rest in his native Brooklyn, New York, at an intimate funeral attended by close friends and family. Relatives of Paolo, the son of a plastics tycoon who died in 2001, asked mourners to plant trees in his memory.

Princess Beatrice is said to be heartbroken after news broke of the death of her former partner Paolo Liuzzo (left) aged just 41 after a suspected drug overdose. Beatrice, the daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson , dated Liuzzo in 2005 when she was 17 and he was 24, but they separated just the following year in 2006. But a closer look into her relationship history reveals some intriguing truths - and her relationship with 'playboy' Liuzzo was just the start of her rollercoaster love life, going on to date Dave Kelly (centre) and now married to Edoardo Mapelli (right). Here, FEMAIL takes a closer look at her intriguing past with romance, from rumoured associations to her fascinating relationships.

Officer Michael Vega of the Miami Police Department said police attended a room at the citizenM Miami Worldcenter hotel at 3.22pm on February 7. The cause of death has not officially been reported, but officer Vega said: 'It was investigated as an overdose death. The investigation is open and ongoing.' The princess, who is a daughter of the disgraced Prince Andrew, began dating Liuzzo in 2005 when she was aged 17 and he was 24, but the pair separated in 2006. Insiders have revealed that Liuzzo struggled with gambling as well as drugs, and claimed he had racked up debts with loan sharks, according to The Sun. A friend of Liuzzo said: 'Paolo was not doing great on a personal level.'

This is the historic moment the first statue of Queen Elizabeth II since her death was unveiled today on what would have been her 98th birthday. The unveiling was done to the cheers of crowds - and the approving barks of nearly 50 corgis. The permanent memorial was also hailed 'absolutely amazing' and 'fantastic' by spectators. The eye-catching seven-foot bronze statue went on display on what would have been the late Queen's 98th birthday with a group of corgis stealing the show. It comes as King Charles marks the date by going to Crathie Kirk with Camilla. The pair looked cheery this morning as they headed to Sunday service near Balmoral.

The Duchess of York, who was married to Queen Elizabeth II's son Prince Andrew between 1986 and 1996, was a good friend of the late monarch, who died in September 2022. Fergie shared a smiling picture of the late Queen in an Instagram post, but fans were quick to point out a simple mistake that she made in her accompanying tribute. The duchess, 64, wrote: 'Today we are remembering Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on what would have been her 97th birthday. Thank you for all that you have taught us, for being a steadfast leader and dear friend. You are sorely missed.'

Despite the royal family being famous for enjoying sporty pursuits and the London Marathon ending right by Buckingham Palace, only one member of the Windsor clan has completed the 26.2-mile course.

The ties between the Spencers and the Monarchy go back not just generations but centuries. Even today, the family can claim descent from a number of royal bloodlines and over such a period, they make the Windsors look like arrivistes. The wedding of Lady Jane Spencer, then, was bound to be an event - and it was no surprise when she, like little sister Diana, chose someone with connections. True, Robert Fellowes was not heir to the throne. But he was already assistant private secretary to the late Queen - and a first cousin of Ronald Ferguson, the father of Sarah Ferguson - when he married Lady Jane at Westminster Abbey on April 20, 1978.

The Duchess of York , 64, replied to the message of support with an adorably illustrated note featuring corgis wearing crowns, dog collars and beds, as well as bones and tennis balls. It also featured a photo of Prince Andrew's ex-wife lying in the grass with the late Queen Elizabeth's royal pups - which she has been taking care of.

Prince Andrew broke cover today as he headed for a horse ride in Windsor, a week after a Netflix drama Scoop - abut his disastrous Newsnight interview - aired. The Duke of York, 64, was accompanied by a groom as he headed for a jaunt near his Royal Lodge home. Ditching his usual warm coats as the spring air takes the south, the King's brother opted for a maroon jumper,  navy jodhpurs and riding boots. Seemingly ignoring any rumblings of royal drama, the eighth-in-line to the throne continued business as normal today.

Princess Eugenie looked gorgeous in grey today as she met with the US ambassador to the UK at Winfield House to discuss green fashion. The daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York wore a Gabriela Hearst Amor Knit Cashmere Silk Dress in Heather Grey and Gianvito Rossi's 105 Pumps. It's Eugenie's first public appearance since Scoop aired on Netflix. The Gillian Anderson show is a dramatisation of her father's disastrous Newsnight interview. Joining Eugenie was  the U.S. Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Jane Hartley.Ms Hartley hosted a reception and panel discussion on the fashion industry's commitment to sustainability at her Regent's Park residence Winfield House.

The royal, 35, and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi , 40, were all smiles as they left Arlington restaurant in Mayfair on Wednesday evening. They appeared in good spirits after enjoying the evening with Nikki Williams-Ellis MBE - Edo's mother - and her husband David Williams-Ellis.

The Duchess of York, 64, shared the note on Instagram on Sunday. In her tweet, she warned followers, 'I would like to warn anyone who is reading this to check in with yourself.' 'Check in on your wellbeing and check in on your body.' Perform your regular health check. Take the walk. Read a book. Both your body and mind are a priority. 'Beforehanding them, make sure they love them.'

When it comes to favourite outfits, why not get a little extra wear down the generations? This holds true for royal mother-daughter pairings as well as others, including late Queen Anne and Princess Anne, Queen Mary of Denmark, and Princess Letizia of Spain and daughter Princess Leonor. These photos show that a number of royal women have had memorable twinning experiences in recent years.

Queen Charles' notion of a slimmed-down monarchy has sparked doubts from royal enthusiasts and experts alike, who believe it would bring the Crown's image to irrelevance. Following the shock cancer diagnoses of the head of state, 75, and the Princess of Wales, 42, it's a topic of debate that's becoming more relevant. Following the annual Easter service at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle on Sunday, the King has largely postponed his public service, although he did greet delighted well-wishers. Kate hasn't returned to royal duties since undergoing abdominal surgery in January. Kate has now started a course of preventative chemotherapy after post-operative studies revealed that cancer had been present, and post-operative tests revealed that it had been invasive. It means that there are only five senior royals to call on, including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the United States and Prince Andrew in the cold: Queen Camilla, Prince William, Prince Anne, Prince Edward, and the Duchess of Edinburgh. Princesse Eugenie and Beatrice, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's daughters, were among the minor royals who have aided in previous years. However, with the Duke of York exiled from public service and both Princesses and children full of school and work, it's unlikely that there will be a repeat. Despite calls for the King to bring the siblings closer to the fold this year, Charles's father Prince Andrew's scandals would no doubt give him pause. So, could a new set of younger, hardly-known royals be called upon to help with public engagements instead?

Sarah Ferguson (pictured) has taken to Instagram to share a series of images from a trip to Samoa, dubbed 'beautiful'. Prince Andrew, 64's ex-wife, has posted a series of photographs from the last two days in which she tagged several companies she visited. Sarah was a member of the Poutasi Women's Committee, one of the groups. Captioning photos from the engagement, the Duchess of York wrote: 'Beautiful Samoa, thank you for having me!

As he prepares for a trip in October, the monarch could return to Queen Camilla in just months. Charles, 75, is said to be 'optimistic' after being able to meet with the public on Easter Sunday, and he has reportedly told aides that he is'supercharging' plans for a two-week trip, including visits New Zealand and Samoa. According to a source, the King is raring to go and keen to get to work.'

Prince Andrew was seen smiling while driving near Windsor Castle on Thursday, and he looked in good spirits.

Queen Camilla, 76, arrived at Windsor Castle wearing the brooch tied to her black cape, which was elegantly draped over her shoulders. The dazzling accessory is made from emeralds, diamonds, and sapphires and was delivered to her from Queen Elizabeth. However, some of the brooches in the collection barely saw the light of day, with the late queen only showing them out in public a handful of times. According to royal fan account British Royal Jewels, this brooch is thought to have been owned by Queen Mary of Teck, who was photographed sporting it in the early 1900s.
