Queen's Grandchildren "Official" Engagements (2018)

Embed from Getty Images

The Queen's grandchildren, Peter PhilipsZara Tindall, Princess BeatricePrincess EugenieLady Louise& Viscount James, don't regularly undertake "official" engagements like William or Harry. But, they do attend the occasional "official engagement" and hold a number of patronages.

Their events aren't regularly listed on the CC, and they don't receive taxpayer funding for their charitable work.

This list also includes events they attend in an official capacity as a member of the Royal Family or as Patron of a charity, etc.

We try not to include charity work that related to their job or events they attend in a private capacity, etc. But, it is hard to draw a line between what should be included, and what should not. Also, things aren't always widely publicized so, undoubtedly, we will miss some things.

Count for 2018:
Peter - 3
Zara - 0
Beatrice - 33
Eugenie - 25
Louise - 4
James - 0

            1. I've added the two for Eugneie as they relate to her patronages. But as Beatrice did not attend the Gala in any sort of official capacity, that isn't getting added.

            2. thanks - you've added them under November though - these were in December ... :)

            1. The was not included on the CC for the Countess of Wessex. So if it wasn't included as an official engagement for her, we aren't counting it for Lady Louise.
