Princess Beatrices ex Dave Clark got married two years after their breakup, ouch
Just about two years ago, Princess Beatrice of York broke up with Dave Clark. I say she broke up with him, but I got the feeling that it was more of a mutual thing, especially since they seemed to deal with everything with some maturity. They had been dating for the better part of a decade, and it had gotten to the point where (I believed) Beatrice expected Dave to propose. And he didn’t. So they did the big talk about “where is this going” and “if you don’t want a commitment, then I need to find someone who does want to get married.” I felt for Beatrice, honestly. I think she really adored Dave and wanted to marry him after 10 years together, and she’s been single ever since their split. I assume she’s been casually dating, but there’s been no steady boyfriend in two years. And now this:
Princess Beatrice‘s ex boyfriend Dave Clark is a married man! Clark, who dated Beatrice for nearly a decade, tied the knot with Lynn Anderson over the weekend during a romantic ceremony in Italy, a source tells PEOPLE.
Present during the couple’s happy day was Scooter Braun, manager to Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, who shared some sweet photos of Clark and Anderson’s big day.
“Congrats to David and Lynn Clark on a beautiful wedding filled with laughter and love and more laughter and some dancing and some donuts,” he wrote alongside a series of photos of the pair. “Shotgun Anderson will always be my hero. Love to you guys and your new family! Cheers!”
This is rough. Yes, it’s been two years since the breakup, and yes, this kind of thing happens all the time. But I still feel a pang of sympathy for poor Beatrice. She was with Dave for nearly a decade! They broke up because he didn’t want to get married, and then he immediately gets into a relationship in which he ends up getting married?? Come on. Maybe Beatrice was really the Bridget Jones of the royal family this whole time. I used to think Prince Harry was the Bridget Jones of the Windsors, but now we can see it clearly: Beatrice = Bridget. I hope she finds her Mark Darcy.
