The September issue of Harper’s Bazaar (US) has several great features, like an interview with Ivanka Trump, a real estate piece with Miranda Kerr, and now this – a “day in the life” piece with Princess Eugenie of York. Eugenie is the younger York princess – she’s 26 years old and after a few years working in New York, she’s back in London and working at a cushy art gallery, Hauser & Wirth. Bazaar photographed Eugenie at Royal Lodge, her father’s home, and the entire piece is written in the first-person, like a diary. You can read the full piece here – it’s a great read if you want to know what happens in a princess’s normal day. Not surprisingly, I was fascinated. I would love it if the Duchess of Cambridge did one of these features, but I think the world would be shocked by how little Kate does in a day. Here are some highlights from Eugenie’s diary:
The wake-up involves emails & a workout: “I get up around 6:45 to start exercising by 7. I read my personal e-mails when I wake up. My mum always says, “What’s the point of rolling straight out of bed and looking at your e-mails? It can ruin the first few hours of your morning. If you just wait …” But I really can’t! I go to the park from 7 to 8. I do circuits, which I love because they’re quick: burpees, squat jumps, lunges, the whole lot. It’s much better, as I can’t run for a long time. Or I go with my best friend to this amazing, women-only gym called Grace Belgravia. If I need to pick up some groceries, I go to Waitrose, right next to my gym. In the morning class, I can smell the fresh croissants coming in and I’m like, “Don’t do this to me!”
The Jacks in her life. Her boyfriend is named Jack. So is her dog. She claims that’s an “accident.” She also says she does her work-makeup in the car, and I assume she’s being driven, but she says “I’m really good at doing it on the move!” so now I don’t know.
What work means. She actually sounds like she knows what she’s talking about with art, and part of her official job is “planning special projects, supporting the artists in the gallery and managing events.” She loves Jean-Michel Basquiat, whom she describes as “my hero.” She’s at work by 9 am.
She hates high heels. “I wear a dress and boots to work. I’ve started wearing high heels, which is so grown-up. But they’re painful by the end of the day… I live in my Rag & Bone ankle boots.”
Work is reading online. “At work, I read the New York Times arts section, Artnet, the FT, and Contemporary Art Daily. I don’t get newspapers delivered; I read news online. I also follow some incredible Instagram accounts, like other galleries’, Christie’s, Sotheby’s, also Klaus Biesenbach from MoMA PS1.”
She’s big on hydration: “During the day I drink everything from green tea to coffee, Diet Coke to fizzy water.”
Charity work. “In the evenings, I often have engagements related to my family or a charity I support. Hauser & Wirth is very accommodating and understanding of my sense of duty. So I’ll work until 5 P.M., then leave to do the engagement. My sister, Bea, and I have charities we’re patrons of. We also try to support Granny and Grandpa in any way we can because that is what family is for.”
She goes out to dinner a lot. “I collect restaurant cards. (I also collect airplane tickets, by the way—since I was 16. One day, I’m going to turn them into wallpaper and paste it into my cupboard.) Two of my favorite restaurants in London are Bocca di Lupo and the Palomar in Soho. For dinner, when I’m being good, I cook my own food. When I’m being really bad, it’s Basilico pizza. My favorite drink is vodka soda with loads of lime. Can’t beat that.”
Favorite TV shows. “At the moment I’m watching How to Get Away With Murder—Viola Davis, she’s insanely good—and Outlander, my favorite. When I’m with Jack, we watch The Walking Dead, which we’re obsessed with. Maybe Game of Thrones is our next thing. I don’t watch reality shows, but I love cooking programs. Indulgences? Chips—fries, as you say—Diet Coke, nuts! Cashew nuts with mustard are the best. Netflix.”
She says she goes to bed around midnight and she usually gets less than seven hours of sleep. While I think she’s probably a great gallery employee, I also think her job, for the most part, is pretty fun. She reads about art online for several hours. She emails. She makes calls. She goes out to lunch. She comes back and looks at artists’ Instagrams. She makes a few more calls. She’s out of the office by 5 pm every day.
The Daily Mail made a big deal about her gym too – Grace Belgravia is apparently a super-exclusive women-only gym which costs more than $7000 a year for a membership. FOR A GYM? That’s ludicrous. I used to go to a (cheap) women-only gym too, but now I go to the YMCA and I have to admit, I actually prefer a co-ed gym. It’s not that the guys at my gym are hot or anything (they are not), but I actually feel less judged at a co-ed gym.

I read this piece. And while the gym seems expensive, given that we just had a Playboy model take nude photos of a random women in the gym and call her fat, I can see why people want a private gym. That money is worth it for Eugenie.
Also, I think Eugenie comes off really well here. She comes off as fun and as down to earth as one can possibly get growing up not only privileged, but with the title of princess. I mean, listen, I’m a feminist and all, but ya girl would still drool and become giddy over a real tiara.
$7000 a year is wasteful. For $7000 she can get her own gym equipment and use it at home.
@ fingerbinger – a personal trainer will add to those costs as well as maintaining the equipment. It is easier to pay one flat rate than to additionally hire a personal trainer.
Not for her though. $7K a year is wasteful on my salary, sure. I don’t expect wealthy people to make the same choices I’d make. I’m sure her money gets her access to trainers, classes, and not only top-of-the-line equipment, but an array of the best equipment. Equipment that’s not only maintained by the staff, but regularly updated to newer models. And, I’m sure a few other perks.
For a members only/private ladies only gym thats the norm for central London, i know someone who pays around £350 a month (about £4k a yr) for her exclusive/private gym on the outskirts of the city. Time with a personal trainer and classes come as part of the fee, plus it has a massive pool.
The experience is not the same. I work out at home and gym and sometimes I want to be totally alone and other times I want to work out in a gym.
If i had the funds I;d join a fancy dancey gym too.
Those in poverty also think that one Starbucks a week is wasteful but its not to most of us here …
For gyms like that you’re not just lifting some weights or doing Cardio on your own. You’re seeing a trainer and taking classes – stuff so that you’re specifically not working out by yourself. I’d also imagine that it has a killer spa. I mean, I’m not about to pay $7k for a gym, but I also don’t think it makes more sense to buy a bunch of equipment.
I am not rich by any means, never have been. But not too long ago, between my pilates studio and my family gym membership at MIT (where they have two olympic size pools) I was shelling out $3780 a year. Most of that was for the pilates reformer sessions– small classes (no more than five people) with a trainer for $250 a month. I call that money well spent. I was able to afford it because that was around the time I took my car off the road.
I got amazing results, and would do it again in a heartbeat if only my current work schedule allowed the time– unfortunately these pilates studios tend to assume that you are part of the “ladies who lunch” crowd, and most of the classes are late morning and early afternoon.
If I had her funds, a fancy pants gym would be at the top of my list. It is an entirely justifiable luxury.
Btw, I have never been able to work out effectively at home.
Thanks for all the replies but it’s still a waste.
I would like to know why exactly you feel that way. If she really values physical fitness, likes the club, actively uses her membership, and if the expense fits into her budget, how is it a waste? We all make choices about what we consider important. Maybe she doesn’t want a stairmaster in her bedroom. Maybe she likes the amenities, the juice bar, and the jacuzzi. Maybe she likes the company and the encouragement. How is it wasteful?
One person spends a lot of money on a gym that she likes; another might spend a lot of money on high end shoes; another might feel she *must* drive a mercedes; another might consider her vacation house to be non-negotiable.
I have a personal weakness for first edition books, and my mother thinks that is wasteful– “They take up space! Think how much money you would have if you got rid of them all and used the public library instead!” Piffle. I love my books. They’re personal. I could list a dozen places where I do not indulge myself, but this is something I let myself have. Is that so terrible?
@Hadleyb-The only people I know who drink Starbucks are those who live in rural areas and don’t have access to a proper coffee shop. If you live in London and are regularly drinking that sludge, it says more about you than the people who think it’s wasteful.
Ordinarily I might tend to agree that $7000/year for a gym membership is outrageously expensive, but this is a woman who was openly mocked for her weight and size FOR YEARS. She also knows weight issues run in her family on both sides (Andy is far from fit and trim these days, and Sarah must be very strict about her diet and exercise routines or else she gains easily). It is much easier to skip working out at home, but going to the gym – especially with friends – likely keeps her focused on staying in shape, with the added bonus of silencing the weight trolls. Besides the amenities this gym may offer (wide variety of classes, trainers, pools/saunas/massages, etc.), I know it surely would motivate me to go work out as much as possible if I knew that every single day I skipped was costing me over $19!
I don’t see how her “job” is any different than what Kate did pre-marriage at Jigasaw. You make your own hours, the salary is irrelevant and you just wait until night comes to party. She doesn’t get a pass from me. And I think this glamour shoot was ill-advised, post-Brexit.
At least she is present at her job. Kate’s co-workers at jigsaw said she was mostly absent even though she had negotiated a 2-3 day week.
Better still, a quote from Kate’s jigsaw boss in reference to her working hours,’ she wanted a degree of flexibility to maintain her relationship with a high profile man’
Try telling THAT to your boss in your next job negotiations.
I haven’t met anyone at Kate’s level but my co-worker went once to the manager asking to come an hour late in the morning because she wanted to spend more time with her husband – also a high-profile man, but, as you can imagine, not as high as William. I guess in their minds, high-profile is high-profile, regardless whether he is the prince of England or a CEO to a mid-level company.
If I was a man, I would not like one of these lazy women but that is why I am not a man. On the contrary, these women seem to be very popular.
Yeah I think Eugenie isn’t quite the workshy wastrel Kate was. Kate worked at her part-time Jigsaw job for less than a year. Eugenie has more of a bona fide career even if her job is rather cushy. If you want a laugh from the past check this out.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-479299/Kate-Middleton-quits-job-pursue-photography-career.html
@Tourmaline: I love this article. she really doesn’t like working, Besides catching William, has she accomplished anything all by herself? And come to think of it, she didn’t even do that herself. It sounds like catching William was a family affair.
Tourmaline: here is Jigsaw Boss’s interview in which she dishes on Kate. Generally she’s trying to paint a sympathetic picture, but it has the opposite effect.
http://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/kates-not-precious-she-mucked-in-at-jigsaw-6922185.html
Also Kate’s Jigsaw work colleagues accidentally (or not) gave interview to a tabloid in which they said she was never committed and was frequently absent due to being on holiday with William.
@LAK Yes I’ve read that one! It seems Lady Jigsaw was a bit indiscreet with all she said about Kate! I find the Kate Jigsaw episode to be very much a foreshadowing of her royal work ethic or lack thereof. Mummy’s special snowflake wasn’t cut out for the workaday world!
Didn’t Kate hold that job down for a very short period of time though?
For their age ranges, I think the jobs that both Kate and Eugenie did/do make sense. They’re not going to be CEOs at their ages. But I think Eugenie will probably use her job to move upward like other young women do whereas Kate seemed to work for a short period of time because the Queen had no idea what she was doing with her time otherwise.
People who worked there with her have said she was never there and when she did turn up it was for a few hours at most – thou she did make sure she regularly got papped ‘going’ to the office.
And yes, Chutney only took that job after TQ’s ‘what does she actually do?’ comment made it into the press. Same goes for that charity roller disco that she ‘allegedly’ helped organise, there were reports in the press about her lack of interest in charitable/humanitarian causes.
Kate has always has a rep for being lazy and workshy. During the GF years she gained a rep as being a good time party girl who was only interested in shopping, family vacations and waiting by the phone for her Prince to call.
@Betti – so nothing has changed, then.
To be fair, Eugenie seems more involved and interested in her job. Kate specifically took the Jigsaw job to deflect criticism, which is why it didn’t stick for very long and she wasn’t there often. While Eugenie probably has a more flexible schedule *overall*, I wouldn’t say she makes up her own hours on a daily basis. It seems like she puts in a standard business day regularly enough. Yes, we get pics of her out on the town, but it looks like a lot of the events are after business hours.
And she didn’t even get the Jigswa job on merit – she got it because Mummy and Daddies connections. Someone high up in the firm is/was a Middleton family friend.
And Eugenie has much more of an obligation to her charities and her grandparents than Wills. I think she’s shaming him with “that’s what families are for.” Haha! Good throwing shade, girl!!
That is one fluffy job. I want it. Oh, to be a princess!
Me too! And no shade to this princess from me at all.
It’s also similar to the job her mother had at the time she got engaged to her father. She was some sort of event planner at a publishing house. They get to be social on a paycheck.
Errrmmmm… when is the last time you planned an event? Event planning is actually pretty demanding and stressful, and typically the event planner is the last person who gets to socialize and enjoy herself.
Absolutely agree, Miss Jupitero! I’ve done planning for some small work events – mostly holiday parties and such – and it’s exhausting. Putting together an editorial board cocktail party for a hundred-odd people in Poland while I was based in Hoboken about killed me.
I stand corrected! It’s always easier looking from the outside.
I think Eugenie works a lot harder than what this diary suggests. Selling high-end art is not just about knowing people with money to burn and throwing parties. She has to read a lot every day to keep abreast of emerging artists/trends (because everyone wants to be the person who first discovers the next Picasso) and understand her potential buyers and their tastes and goals. She not only has to be able to communicate intelligently about artists and their works but also to explain why a particular piece would be a good addition to a collection, how it might work in a specific space for a potential owner, and why some works are good investments while others may not be. Eugenie may not be a Mensa member, but she does not strike me as a total moron either.
No shade here. She seems to have a cool job she enjoys and a nice life. I’d have drinks with her.
Yeah – same. I came in expecting to eye-roll. But honestly? I found her quite likable. And I’m not going to shade her for her job. She seems to actually be interested in it – and I can really relate to the checking emails FIRST thing in the morning. Even if it spoils the rest of the morning – it’s become part of my routine.
Really though – she’s been raised in a privileged position. She doesn’t NEED that job the same way I NEED my job. If I could pick and choose based solely on what interests me rather than what will pay, and what benefits I can get, I’d probably do the same. She’s involved in something that interests her, and really – that’s kind of the dream, isn’t it?
No shade from me.
ETA: I just wiki’d her. She’s two months and two days older than I am. I honestly think she seems like a pretty cool person. I get why people get annoyed at the royals for not doing as much as they could, or for taking too many vacations. But honestly – I think her interview reads like a decently intelligent 26 year old who is in that stage between leaving your late teens/early 20’s and starting to realize “oh my god I’m a grownup now”.
It’s nice to see Eugenie getting good press for a change. She looks lovely in the photos.
Top photo especially is *begging* for a brighter lipstick.
Agreed! She has a great face for bold lipstick in general, but especially in that photo.
And less eyebrows. I see where they were going with that, just didn’t quite pull it off. Dress is gorgeous.
Yes! Even a nice color that wasn’t super bold – but did have some more contrast would be great. Something in a medium rosey nude would have given a bit more life to the photo for sure.
She looks like a such a combo of her parents. Usually think she looks much more like Andrew but I see a lot of Fergie in her face too.
I believe she looks like the Queen Mum, such a strong resemblance to her.
To be fair, I worked at a museum in roughly the same position, and a LOT of your work is angled at research: who’s coming up, who’s getting attention, what donors are looking for, who’s selling or donating what, and what competitors are doing (particularly useful in terms of planning future exhibitions, as you do NOT want to clash with another high-end institution). It sounds like she’s the one who gets the information, organises it, and passes it on to the people who make the decisions.
She’s basically the gallery’s gossip hound. I bet she’d make a GREAT dinner companion if you wanted the inside dish about the high-end art world.
Yeah. I work as a social media manager at an agency and people think my job is all “being on fb all day” and while kinda yes it is, it’s also writing all the posts , reaching out to influencers , researching for ideas on social media, client lunches , testing new social media features etc. it’s actually a lot of work and definitely not as “fun” as people assume when I first explain it. I assume
Eugenes work is enjoyable but not as fun as we assume from the interview.
As a Social Media Manager and Social Media Strategist, I agree! Especially when you manage multiple accounts – that’s when research becomes not only crucial, but a bit crazy.
I’m just glad as a Strategist Manager I can now oversee execution/copy instead of being glued to social networks all day, posting and testing everything 3 times.
Yeah, that’s how I read it, too. Nobody in that industry can remain shut off in an office.
And, trust me, her connections and insights into the upper crust are insanely valuable to her bosses.
She sounds like a researcher to me. I’ve got a kid on my staff who’s about her age who spends all day glued to the computer, looking through Insta, social media, and gallery websites, specifically looking for up and coming talent. I’m always looking for designers and illustrators. I assume, when he explains what he does to people, they think he has a fluff nothing job, but he’s a critical part of building my assets for ad work. I don’t have the time to do it myself, but I *have* to know what’s going on in the art scene, who’s looking for side gigs, etc, so that gets to be someone’s job, to find and sort that information for me. Eugenie’s jobs sounds very similar. I bet she’s collating information for the gallery manager and passing along who’s showing where, what work is popular at the auction houses (because that can determine the kind of work a gallery chooses to highlight), and finding interesting up and comers. It’s not the hardest job, maybe, but it keeps the wheels of art commerce turning.
I was going to say the same thing! I’m in a museum, hopefully shifting to a gallery soon, and my new job scope sounds similar to hers. It can be a lot of work, especially if she deals with numerous artists at the same time. Also, if she’s involved in event organisation it’s definitely not as glamorous as it sounds, trust me. Although from the way she describes it, I bet her job doesn’t require as much event programming as I’m used to.
We call it fizzy water, too! Seltzer addict here!
Ooh is that what they call it. Im such a seltzer addict too. No shade from me it sounds like she has an awesome job.
Every time i see a picture of her, i’m amazed at her strong resemblance to the Queen Mother.
She looks very much like her. It’s uncanny.
Yes and her sister is the image of a young Queen Victoria.
Got to help out granny and grandpa!! Love it!
Yes, whether or not that was an unconscious dig at the couple we all know and love, she’s got her priorities straight.
I don’t think I would advertise where and when I work out. I’m sure the press would love to get some unflattering pics of her in workout clothes.
For some reason I’ve always preferred her over her sister. She seems comfortable in her own skin.
Love her comment about her ‘sense of duty’, sly dig at Chutney! I like the Yorks sisters and at least she has a job she turns up to. The thing with these types of jobs is that they tend to be on flexible hours as they are generally not your average 9-5 jobs and I know she makes it sounds like it is but if she’s involved in planning special events there will be periods when she is busy and periods when she is quiet.
And yes the York sisters know more about art than the art history graduate from St Andrews who wonders if Faberge still makes their eggs.
Yes but is also means she has to present at those jobs/projects/etc, far exceeding the 9-5 quota.
I worked in the music industry and my hours were 9 AM to 2 AM.
How does she get up so early just to exercise? I usually skip breakfast just to be able to sleep more. I fail at life.
Regardless, her job seems fun and her connections can only benefit her position in the art gallery and ultimately, her job. I’m also glad she not only works 9-5, but then goes off to engagements. It’s really bad the York sisters are not allowed to perform more public duties – we would get to see younger working Royals!
I got a chuckle out of that. “I fail at life.” LOL I often feel that way too about morning exercise.
Haha, I read that and thought “7am to exercise, that’s so late!”
oh god how do you do it? I don’t function in the mornings. If I had to run I would fall flat on my face and just stay there.
Incrementally. And made sure to meet friends so I couldn’t just bail. And had 2 early rising children who forcefully made me into a morning person.
I think that comment of helping granny and grandpa was a dig at Kate and wills. They didnt seem overly attentive to the queen during her jubilee/bday stuff. Maybe I am wrong but they could have stepped it up a notch? Perhaps I missed some coverage about the celebrations during that time.
She is, by far, the prettier sister.
imo comments like these are really unfair, especially when the girls aren’t in a profession that’s all about their looks.
And it’s especially toxic to be saying things like these about sisters – family dynamics getting brought into the comparison makes it worse.
Her styling was excellent. Regal and sophisticated without being too over the top. She looked wonderful.
I like both girls and I’m glad she’s found a job that makes her happy and keeps her interested. I had no idea she was still with Jack. Good for them.
There are women-only gyms?
Yes. I don’t know if you have GoodLife Fitness where you are from but in Canada, GoodLife Fitness has GoodLife Fitness for Women.
Royally off-topic but wow I just saw the Duke of Westminster has died of a heart attack at age 64. So now his 25 year old son, who is a godfather to Prince George, is the new duke.
Wow, he’s young. Imagine losing your father at that age and on top of that inheriting his title and everything that goes with it.
No shade here. I am sure she has to produce something from her reading, and being familiar with everything else that is going on is par for the course in the arts.
I would like her job very much if it were mine. She sounds like a fun, reasonable, and interesting person.
You know what, good for her! I think she has found an excellent balance. She has a real job with real hours that she has been able to maintain. In all honesty, she may be the “busiest royal”aside from the Queen in terms of actual downtime. She isn’t a paid member of the royal family and those rules changed in her generation so good on her for taking it in stride! I cannot stand her sister for her laziness, but I don’t expect either of them to pretend they are middle class. Good for Eugenie!
She sounds like she has her act together, much more than I can say for the Cambridges.
I love the photos, Royal Lodge décor has a lot more personality than what we saw from the Obama/Cambridge photos. And I especially love the black/blue rug. I wonder where I can get one. Do they shop Pottery Barn? 😀
Rug is beautiful. Authentic Persian i’m guessing.
Here is a USA online dealer
http://www.finerugcollection.com/collections/persian-rugs?constraint=kashan
Thanks for the link! It doesn’t look like they have that rug anymore though. I’ve booked marked it so I can keep checking. There have gorgeous rugs.
I’m sorry, but really? Here is a person who doesn’t have to struggle with making ends meet and could devote her time to contribute positively to society – and she is not doing that. If she were working to ensure that an education in the arts and participation is guaranteed for underprivileged people – fine. But she is not.
I do think strongly, that if you are in a financial position such as hers you have responsibilities. And I’m not the only one. I know a woman from a quite wealthy family who didn’t want to become a doctor. But her parents made her. She doesn’t need to take money from the pharma industry, she doesn’t need to make a living – so she works as a doctor providing people with health care who otherwise couldn’t afford it.
But apparently the people who have their wealth paid for by taxes of people who have less than them, taking this money away from less privileged people who would need it – look at instagram.
I don’t know if she’s contributing positively, but I don’t necessarily think she’s contributing negatively either. She doesn’t seem like Kim Kardashian or Paris Hilton. She seems to have a regular life for a 26 year old from what I can tell. Could she be doing more? Maybe. But since she’s not close to the direct line to the throne, I don’t know how much social responsibility to stick on her. And I have no idea if she’s really anywhere as rich as Kate And William. Even Harry doesn’t seem nearly as rich as them.
Firstly, she doesn’t receive taxpayer funding. Of course one could argue the source of her trustfund, but that is a complicated equation involving private and possibly accumulated taxpayer money in the past, but at present, she’s not receiving any money.
Secondly, whilst it was cut out of the edited article above, she mentions her scoliosis which required insertion of permanent rods in her back as a child.
She is royal patron of the hospital that operated on her and frequently fundraises for them as well as raises awareness for them. Her efforts might not receive the ecstatic reception that WHK’s efforts do, but she continues to plug away for them.
Here are afew articles:

I really like her for this. There are no bells or whistles with her involvement in her charity but she quietly supports it, gets the job done and that’s really all that matters.
I’m loving the rugs! That’s what drew my attention.
It seems like a cushy, fun job but at least she goes every day and has held the post for a while. I liked the comment about helping granny and grandpa. It was probably a subtle dig at Willnot and Cannot who do very little but generate lots of publicity for their feeble efforts. It must be quite frustrating for the other royals.
I was ready to not like her, but she comes across well. For someone in her position, she seems grounded and laid-back, and not self-absorbed.
She seems like a nice enough young woman. I just don’t know why the entire royal family is kept like pampered poodles…but I’m American. They did nothing to earn their lot in life.
She eats cashews with mustard? Am I the only one appalled by that?
I mean, hey, great she’s working and seems to take her responisibilities seriously and all that, but cashews with mustard? I have never heard of that and wish that I hadn’t! (I love me some mustard though and have been known to get some lettuce to dip in mustard at times and I always dip my pretzels in it, but I just can’t reconcile the nuts with mustard).
IDK, I might be willing to try that. Might not be such a bad combo of flavors.
On another note, the name Royal Lodge gives me an illusion of a tiny little cottage where there’s barely any room to turn around. The top picture looks like it could be at BP or Windsor Castle. And I love the layering of those Persian rugs.
I eat walnuts with mustard and cheese.
I eat cashews with marmite. Best thing ever!!
Oh, I can’t go near marmite. I respect your love for it, but no. Just no. For me, anyway.
As i was thinking about all of the things I like mustard with, I started wondering if it would be worth a try. I do love mustard.
So she’s getting quite a bit of criticism from security staff for being so open about her daily schedule in this interview…it’s being suggested that it’s not a smart move to tell people exactly where you habitually go and when if your public profile could make you a target for kidnapping.
I don’t think they’d need this article to help them. It is publicly known where she lives and where she works. If they followed her for a week, and she does the same thing every day, they’d have her schedule figured out.
Beautiful photos!
