Princess Beatrice is set to follow in her mother Fergie's and sister Princess Eugenie's footsteps with her next move, despite previously having "apprehension", according to a royal insider.
The Princess of York, 36, does not have a public social media account, unlike her mother and younger sister.
An insider has claimed that Beatrice may consider launching a social media presence after the birth of her second child.
They said: "Beatrice has a private Instagram account but she's a bit reluctant to launch an official one.
"Eugenie and Sarah both have official social media accounts and it is something Beatrice has been asked about many times.
"Although Bea has been a bit apprehensive in the past, there are tentative plans to launch an official Instagram account to accompany the birth of her second child."
The source continued to tell The Express: "Beatrice is being encouraged to showcase her charitable endeavours which will shine a better light on the York family as a whole.
"She's also been told that it might be nice to show off a bit more of her family because she's been quite closed up until recently."
