Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie appear far from the palace’s drama as their parents are ordered to leave Windsor’s Royal Lodge, having flown overseas.
As their disgraced parents’ demise is looming, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice have fled the country.
Their father Andrew has been kicked out of Royal Lodge and stripped of his prince title in a bombshell move from King Charles, who forced his brother to give up his titles an honours.
The scandal surrounding Andrew reached a fever pitch when fresh revelations about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein came to light earlier this month. Further shame for the Royal Family came when Virginia Giuffre, an Epstein victim, released a posthumous memoir accusing Andrew of sexually assaulting her three times as a teenager, claims which is strongly denies.
According to what it is known, Charles will finance the 65-year-old Andrew’s move to the Norfolk Sandringham estate using his own money. Sarah Ferguson, who had previously lived at the 30-room mansion with her ex-husband, will now live there herself.
Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice appear to be staying away from the furore, this most recent development causing shockwaves in the Royal Family.

Eugenie appears to be in Paris this week for a girls’ trip, with images showing the 35-year-old posing with friends on the Seine and the Eiffel Tower as a stunning backdrop.
In Riyadh, Beatrice’s older sister is also in Saudi Arabia to take part in the Future Investment Initiative event. The 37-year-old was posing with Sunil Sharma in a photo that he shared on Rational Voices with Sunil, titled “A Royal Moment.” I enjoyed meeting and conversing with HRH Princess Beatrice.
Although Beatrice is not a working royal, it is believed that Afiniti, for which she is Vice President of Partnerships & Strategy, was present.
In a bid to get his uncle out of his crumbling home, Prince William, the princesses’ cousin, was said to be the driving force behind taking a firmer stance on Andrew in earlier reports. These claims were refuted, however, by royal sources.
According to King George V’s Letters Patent of 1917, HRH Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice will continue to be considered daughters of the son of a Sovereign. The sisters’ lives will undoubtedly have changed, and they will now have to deal with an unprecedented level of family interest, without their own fault, even though they have kept their princess titles.
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams noted how difficult this will likely be for the sisters because both their parents are likely to languish in public disgrace and foreseeably so when he discussed the extent of this.
Body language expert Judi James has also noted that Beatrice appeared to be in “distress” in her first public appearance since new allegations about Andrew have surfaced. As the conflict drags on, both Eugenie and Beatrice appear to have publicly distanced themselves from both Sarah and Andrew.
In response to the siblings’ ongoing scandals, they have recently become “rare visitors” to Royal Lodge and have maintained a “dignified silence” there. Instead, they are focusing on pursuing careers, trying to maintain some degree of normality, and raising their own young families.
However, the sisters’ transition hasn’t been easy, especially Beatrice, who, according to Fergie’s biographer and royal expert, was always a “daddy’s girl.”
It was therefore perhaps no surprise that it was Beatrice who was seen driving to her parents’ Windsor home on Monday. According to body language expert Judi, Beatrice adopted facial expressions that appeared to be “a stab of bravado” in the face of “unwanted attention”. The expert said that despite her efforts to show resilience, at some points the princess appeared to show “some distress”.
The Palace’s full statement read, “His Majesty has today started a formal process to remove the style, titles, and honors of Prince Andrew.”
“Andrew Mountbatten Windsor” will now be known as the “Prince Andrew.” He has since been given legal protection to remain in residence thanks to his lease on Royal Lodge.
He will move to another private accommodation after receiving formal notice that the lease has been revoked. Despite the fact that he continues to refute the accusations against him, these critiques are deemed necessary.
Their Majesties express their deepest sympathies and thoughts to the victims and survivors of all forms of abuse, and they will do so forever.
