Without the burden of official royal duties, Princess Eugenie has had the liberty of building a career in whatever she chooses. After studying art for years and landing her first job in New York City, she returned home to London to continue working in the industry. In 2015, she started working with the Hauser & Wirth art gallery and became a director of the company in 2017.
“Part of my job is planning special projects, supporting the artists in the gallery, and managing events,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “We work with many artists and estates around the world, including Mike Kelley, Philip Guston, and, most recently, Lygia Pape.”
Since she’s not a working royal, the princess doesn’t earn a salary handed down by the Royal Family. However, she is automatically a trust fund baby, entitled to a share of a fortune set up by the late Queen Elizabeth II and her parents. Though she’s not strapped for cash by any means, the princess embarked on her art career out of an enthusiasm for the industry. “I’ve loved art since I was very little. I knew I definitely wouldn’t be a painter, but I knew this was the industry for me. I love being able to share my passion for art with people,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.
