London, May 12 (IANS) An unusual hat worn by Britain’s Princess Beatrice to the wedding of her cousin Prince William is being put up for auction at online shopping website eBay, proceeds from which would be donated to Unicef.
Beatrice, 23, is the elder daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Sarah, Duchess of York. She is fifth - and the first female - in line to the throne.
