Princess Beatrice has finally made her first appearance following the arrest of her father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, last Thursday.

The 37-year-old royal was pictured in new photos published by HELLO! walking through London, coffee in hand, alongside her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. The pair were joined by curator Carrie Scott and her partner Nick Lazarus for the outing.

The eldest daughter of Andrew and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson wore a long navy coat with a coordinating scarf, black tights and simple pumps.

Beatrice, 37, has kept a low profile since the former Duke of York was taken into custody at his Wood Farm residence on the Sandringham estate on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Her younger sister, Princess Eugenie, was spotted in London earlier in the week with her husband, Jack Brooksbank. The pair were seen grabbing takeaway coffee in Notting Hill, with Eugenie dressed casually in leggings, trainers and a cap.

Sarah Ferguson's whereabouts are unknown, with reports suggesting she has been travelling overseas. The former Duchess of York has yet to be seen publicly in the UK following her ex-husband's arrest.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was taken into custody on his 66th birthday, with accusations that he shared confidential information with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

The father-of-two, who remains eighth-in-line to the British throne, was questioned for nearly 12 hours at a police station in Norfolk.

Earlier this week, Andrew was subjected to criticism when MPs broke with parliamentary tradition, calling for the release of files about the royal's appointment as a trade envoy.

One MP described the former Duke of York as "a rude, arrogant, entitled man," and criticised the royal family, saying, "one rule for the rich and powerful and one rule for the rest of us."
