A new drama series on Amazon Prime is shining a light on some little-known moments from Princess Beatrice's wedding in 2020. "A Very Royal Scandal" explores the events surrounding Prince Andrew's disastrous BBC Newsnight interview from late 2019 regarding his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

In one scene from the wedding day, Princess Beatrice is seen posing for official photographs outside the Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor with her new husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. Her parents, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, are initially standing beside her. However, Beatrice makes a bold request to her father. "Daddy, could you please move aside just for this next shot? We're about to take an official picture with Granny and Grandpa, is that okay?" she asks. Prince Andrew hesitates but agrees to step out of the photograph.

While the show takes creative liberties in dramatizing real events, it sheds new light on a pivotal family moment. Beatrice's wedding came shortly after Prince Andrew's disastrous interview, which left his reputation in tatters. By politely asking him to move aside, Beatrice ensured the wedding photographs focused solely on herself, her husband, the Queen and Prince Philip, avoiding any drama surrounding her father.
