Princess Beatrice’s ex Dave Clark whisks new fiancee off to French Riviera months after ending 10-year royal romance
Uber exec Dave Clark is now engaged to Lynn Anderson
PRINCESS Bea's ex has taken his new fiancee on a romantic holiday to the French Riviera — just months after he knocked back the young Royal's marriage ultimatum.
High-flying US exec Dave Clark, 32, called time on their 10-year relationship after she demanded he marry her last summer.
He has since been dating New York advertising executive Lynn Anderson, 31, and has swiftly gone down on one knee.
The pair were spotted as they arrived at Hotel du Cap Eden Roc in Antibes.
They looked delighted as they disembarked from a boat to be greeted at the luxury destination.
US-born Dave - dubbed "Mr Smiley" by Bea's mum, Sarah, the Duchess of York - met Virginia-born Lynn in the US, where he is an executive for cab app Uber.
A source said: "Dave is smitten."
The Queen's grand-daughter, 28, was left devastated after they broke up but is said to be "super happy" at his news.
She could even attend the wedding, sources said.
Among the others expected to be "super happy" is Prince William.
He never approved of his cousin's choice, finding him "indiscreet", and refused to invite Dave to the Royal Wedding in 2011.
