Why Princess Beatrice's 2018 Met Gala look is trending in 2025? Old clips spark wild ‘royal robot' conspiracy theory
Princess Beatrice's 2018 Met Gala clips spark wild conspiracy theory
Out of nowhere, multiple clips from Princess Beatrice's 2018 Met Gala red carpet walk have popped up across TikTok, X, and Reddit. In the videos, she's seen arriving in a regal, floor-length deep purple gown with a high waistline, subtle beading, and a matching jewel-encrusted headband. Her hair is slicked back into a neat low bun, and her makeup is soft and understated, very much on the demure side for an event known for theatrical excess.
But what caught people's attention wasn't the dress or the styling. It was the way she stood so perfectly still, holding a fixed expression, barely blinking as cameras flashed. Some viewers claim she doesn't move her mouth or eyes at all for several seconds, making the footage feel unsettling and oddly stiff. These clips might have gone unnoticed back in 2018, but in today's hyper-online culture, they've been dubbed suspicious enough to spark 'Is she a robot?' debates.

'Is that a robot?' Internet reacts to uncanny Beatrice footage
One user wrote, 'Is this actually her? It looks like a robot in a Beatrice mask. No mouth or face movement at all. Unnatural eye movement and a partial blink that goes about halfway.' Another added, 'You mean besides the robotic movements and Chucky expression frozen on her face?' A third simply asked, 'Is that a robot? Serious question. This is eerie shit.'

You mean besides the robotic movements and Chucky expression frozen on her face?
Is that a robot? Serious question. This is eerie shit.
Of course, not everyone jumped on the conspiracy bandwagon. Some viewers defended Beatrice, saying she might have been overwhelmed by the cameras and was simply trying too hard to hold a pose.
I pulled up a different video, and it's definitely not a robot....I think she was just trying waaaaaay too hard not to blink for the photags.https://t.co/czm9DoAiVP

Who is Princess Beatrice?
Born in 1988, Princess Beatrice is the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. Though she's ninth in line to the throne, she's mostly kept a low profile compared to her cousins William and Harry. Over the years, she's become known for her charity work, support of dyslexia awareness, and occasional headline-grabbing fashion choices. She married property developer Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi in a private 2020 ceremony, and the couple shares two daughters, Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi and Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi.
