Honestly, the royals are also just people.
A video of Princess Beatrice has taken social media by storm after she was spotted doing something quite ordinary.
The 37-year-old royal was filmed carrying her own bags while catching a taxi or e-hailing service in London.
In the clip, which has gone viral on social media, the princess is seen loading a Louis Vuitton suitcase and two large bags into the vehicle herself.
She first walked up to the wrong car to check if it was her ride before realising her mistake and finding the right one.

While it’s unclear where she was off to, the amount of luggage suggests she was leaving the city.
The internet had a lot to say about the seemingly normal act rather than her having her own chauffeur.
Others were also concerned for her safety.
“It appears she has no security,” said one user.
Others were just happy to see her getting stuck in.
“She gets plus points for throwing her luggage in the back by herself, and she didn’t look confused about how to do it.”
“Probably off to their home in the Cotswolds, according to the news page. She was in London for a friend’s baby shower.”
