The 36-year-old royal engaged with the charity's Education Director, Jacqueline Farrell, whilst meeting students, alumni and industry partners from the Foundation's courses.

The appearance marked Princess Beatrice's inaugural involvement with The King's Foundation, as she explored the exhibition celebrating a decade of pioneering textiles education.

The exhibition, inspired by the King, showcases the Foundation's commitment to addressing skills gaps within the UK fashion and textiles industry through dedicated education and training programmes.

During her visit, Princess Beatrice demonstrated her enthusiasm by trying various textiles techniques, including smocking and embroidery.

At the conclusion of her visit, the princess received a special poppy pin to commemorate Armistice Day, crafted by Sheena Spence, a dedicated member of the Sewing Bee at Dumfries House.

The King's Foundation, established by Charles in 1990 when he was the Prince of Wales, has made significant strides in textile education through its Future Textiles programme.

Launched at Dumfries House in 2014, the initiative has since benefited more than 7,000 people across multiple locations including Highgrove Gardens in Gloucestershire and Trinity Buoy Wharf in London.

The Foundation, formerly known as The Prince's Foundation, extends beyond textiles education to encompass various community-building initiatives.

Adding to this significant year, Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi announced in October that they are expecting their second child.
