Princess Beatrice spends hours in Glastonbury’s Healing Field ‘to mentally escape from stress of dad’s problems’
PRINCESS BEATRICE spent Friday afternoon in the Healing Field – which must have helped her forget the woes of dad Prince Andrew.
The ninth in line to the throne – whose father stepped back from royal duties over his links to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein – spent two hours soaking up the magical powers of the field.
Bea and her property exec husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi wandered through the site and stopped for a while to check out the Hands-On-Healing workshop and a handfasting ceremony.
An onlooker said: “Bea looked like she wanted to mentally escape from the stress of her dad’s personal problems.
“She appeared to be in her element wandering through the field and stopping off to admire the artwork.
“Bea was also keen to not drink too much ahead of the evening and stuck to fizzy water.”
According to Glastonbury’s organisers, the Healing Field has transformative qualities.
They state: “The vibration that permeates the field combines a deep, relaxed inner happiness with an expansion of our inner being to the greater world.
“From this balance we can better support ourselves and our society to create a more compassionate and sustainable planet.”
In the evening, rockers Idles led an anti-royal chant.
During their set on the Other Stage, frontman Joe Talbot led the crowd in a chant of “F*** the King”.
Luckily, Bea was blissfully unaware as she was sipping cocktails and watching Dua Lipa light up the Pyramid Stage.
I’m glad Bea had a peaceful afternoon, at least.
Maybe angry Joe should head to the Healing Field at some point.
Glasto in style
ONE way to do Glasto in style is to be invited by country clothing brand Barbour.
Actress Sienna Miller, presenter Alexa Chung, singer Grace Carter and Top Boy beauty Saffron Hocking were all the company’s guests of honour and were put up in luxury bell tents and kitted out with branded jackets and welly boots.
The only catch – they had to wear, and hopefully be snapped in, the gear.
Nice work if you can get it.
Queue are you, Paul?
PAUL MESCAL recently revealed he’s anxious about the global fame that will come with his upcoming movie, Gladiator 2.
But he could probably do with being more recognisable, as he was stopped from skipping a queue to one Glasto club when security didn’t know who he was.
The Normal People actor turned up at NYC Downlow at 3.15am but, after seeing the queue for the guest list, went straight to the front in a bid to make a quick entry.
He was then left hanging for a while before eventually sweet-talking security into letting him through.
Once inside, he stripped down to a black vest to show off his Gladiator physique and raved until well after 4am.
But given that NYC Downlow is LGBTQ+ club, there were hardly any girls swooning over him.
Hopefully he has more luck as the weekend goes on . . .
One D star slums with the rest
HE might be worth around £70million but that didn’t stop Louis Tomlinson slumming it in a regular tent with his pals.
While the Hospitality area, has better toilets and showers, the former One Direction star and his mates shunned the luxury glamping areas.
An onlooker said: “Louis was just with his crew and having a laugh. They wanted to watch as much live music as possible and were happy to get lost in the crowds with shades and bucket hats.”
Camila: Taylor’s my hero
AMERICAN pop sensation Camila Cabello made her Glasto debut in the plum evening slot on the Other Stage last night
The Don’t Go Yet hitmaker wowed fans with a high-energy set ahead of Coldplay’s headline slot.
The former Fifth Harmony star revealed that she has been inspired throughout her career by Taylor Swift.
Speaking recently she said: “From the age of 13 I’ve loved Taylor, she taught me so much about the person I wanted to be.
“I feel she taught me how to love and dream and as a writer she taught so many women how to be a boss. I started writing because of her.”
Maya and Stormzy pile on PDA
MAYA JAMA and Stormzy piled on the PDAs as they walked through the festival on Friday.
I can reveal that the Love Island host and rapper went to not just one but THREE private parties, including the VIP area of Soho House’s Hideout.
An onlooker said: “Maya and Stormzy are super loved up and couldn’t keep their hands off each other. They also enjoyed stopping for selfies with fans and were loving their afternoon in the sun.”
Lew back with banger
LEWIS Capaldi announced on the Pyramid Stage last year he would be taking a break from performing due to mental health issues.
But it was heartwarming to see him back at Worthy Farm on Friday.
He was spotted in a super-exclusive VIP party with A-list pals including Noel Gallagher and Cara Delevigne.
An onlooker said: “Lewis looked so happy. He was saying how pleased he was to be back.”
Last year, the Glasto crowds helped Lewis finish singing his tracks as he struggled with his condition.
I can’t wait to see him back on stage.
Stars moving past drama
ANNE-MARIE and hubby Slowthai were looking to forget their personal dramas at Worthy Farm.
The rapper – real name Tyron Frampton – is facing two allegations of rape, with the trial due to start tomorrow.
He denies the charges.
But the couple, who welcomed a daughter earlier this year, were spotted drinking cocktails in the hospitality area.
An onlooker said: “The case clearly isn’t stopping him enjoying the festival.”
