REVEALED: The inner circle rallying round Princess Beatrice as she is left heartbroken by her troubled ex Paolo Liuzzo's death

Princess Beatrice tends to be more discreet about her personal life than younger sister Eugenie – and is certainly more private than their mother, the Duchess of York.

She rarely comments on other family members and abstains from social media.

Behind the scenes, however, the 35-year-old princess enjoys a circle of supportive – and highly influential – friends. After she's left devastated by the death of her troubled ex-boyfriend Paolo Liuzzo, we take a look at those in her trusted inner circle rallying round her...

Princess Beatrice chose her close friend, nutritionist Gabriela Peacock, as godmother to her daughter, Sienna.

Gabriela, a Czech-born nutritionist, has three children with her financier husband David: Maia, 11, and twins, Iris and Caspar, six. Beatrice is a godmother to Iris. 

Gabriela recently told Hello magazine that the princess is a 'fantastic' mother to her daughter and her step-son 'Wolfie'.

'Bea has such a good heart and she's such a kind person, so motherhood came very naturally to her,' she said.

'Sienna is absolutely gorgeous and looks exactly like Bea. She's really cheeky and has a very good personality.'

Gabriela plans to spend time with the princess and their families in the Cotswolds this summer.

She and her fund manager husband can often be found at their home in France, where Beatrice and husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi have been guests.

The couple recently put their five-storey Notting Hill house on the market for nearly £20million.

The nutritionist's clientele include Prince Harry, Ellie Goulding, Millie Mackintosh, James Blunt – and Beatrice herself.

Gabriela recently hosted a swanky event at the Broadwick Soho Hotel to celebrate her bestselling second book, 2 Weeks to A Younger You, with the support of the princess.

Olivia Buckingham

Once described as society's 'secret weapon', Olivia Buckingham was hired as Beatrice's stylist five years ago.

She has helped transform the royal's appearance, introducing her to sought-after British labels such as The Vampire's Wife, Self-Portrait and Emilia Wickstead.

Olivia's other famous clients include actress Carey Mulligan, model Poppy Delevingne and socialite Nicky Hilton.

'The whole process is collaborative when it comes down to choosing the final look,' she told MailOnline.

'I know that we both believe that if a woman can feel empowered and confident by clothes then that's what they should be used for.'

Olivia is responsible for introducing Beatrice to haute couture fashion, such as the Reem Acra dress worn by the princess to the wedding of Crown Prince Hussein and Prince Rajwa of Jordan in 2023.

Beatrice's new, more refined, styling has avoided colour-clashing ensembles and quirky headpieces - a clear departure from her earlier, more idiosyncratic approach.

Alice Naylor-Leyland

Beatrice has been pictured with socialite and entrepreneur Alice Naylor-Leyland on a number of occasions.

They've been spotted leaving exclusive club Loulou's in Mayfair, and at a celebration for Alice's luxury homeware brand, Mrs Alice.

Swiss-born Alice recently shared the news that she has just had a baby girl, her fourth child, with the help of a surrogate.

Her husband, Thomas, is heir to a baronetcy and the £176million Fitzwilliam landowning fortune based in Yorkshire.

Sharing a photograph of the newborn baby's foot, she thanked the unnamed surrogate online, saying: 'Without the kindness and courage of our dear surrogate and the brilliance of modern science using our own embryo, we would not be here.'

Princess Eugenie

The York sisters have expressed their love and admiration for each other on countless occasions - although there is a bit of an edge there from time to time.

'She's annoying when she wants to be and I'm really annoying to her back,' Princess Eugenie said of Beatrice last year.

'But we love each other - best of friends.'

In August, on her big sister's 35th birthday, Eugenie, 34, shared a previously unseen photograph of the pair on Instagram with the message: 'Happy birthday to my big sissy.. love you so much xx'

Ellie Goulding

Beatrice and husband Edoardo joined a star-studded after-party following Ellie Goulding's concert at the Royal Albert Hall earlier this month.

The singer's royal connections are impressive. She performed at the weddings of Prince William and Kate Middleton, as well as Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank.

Princesses Beatrice, Eugenie and their mother, Sarah, Duchess of York, were among the guests at Ellie's York Minster wedding in 2019.

Ellie has been good friends with the York sisters for years, with the singer joining Beatrice on holiday in Jordan in 2018 along with model Karlie Kloss, and designer Misha Nonoo, a friend of Meghan Markle.

Holly Branson

When Beatrice and Edoardo announced their engagement, Holly Branson was among the first to publicly congratulate the couple.

The daughter of Sir Richard Branson, Holly, 42, said the two were 'made for each other' in a heartfelt post shared on her Instagram account.

'So excited to hear the news that Bea and Edo have gotten engaged,' she wrote.

'They really are made for each other! Bea - we have had so many adventures together.

'Something tells me this is going to be your most amazing adventure yet!'

She included a series of photographs documenting their friendship throughout the years, including various joint charity outings.

One image showed the friends as they prepared to take part in the 2010 London Marathon as part of a 34-person human caterpillar.

Karlie Kloss

American supermodel Karlie Kloss and Princess Beatrice were introduced through their mutual friend, Ellie Goulding, in 2018.

They were part of a star-studded group enjoying an action-packed holiday, along with Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan in his country's Wadi Rum desert.

Designer Misha Nonoo shared a number of snaps capturing the gang as they rode camels and quad bikes. There was also an impromptu performance from Ellie Goulding.

Later that year, Karlie and Beatrice attended the Berggruen Prize Gala in New York and were guests together at a wedding in the south of France.
