The sisters have kept a lower public profile since their parents were stripped of royal titles and left their residence amid renewed scrutiny of their father's links to Jeffrey Epstein. Ex-royal Andrew was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office; he denies wrongdoing. A source said the sisters are focused on shielding their children, and reports suggest they have not visited their father at Sandringham since the arrest.
Despite the strain, Beatrice and Eugenie retain their princess titles under the 1917 Letters Patent and have continued to appear with senior royals, including at cousin Peter Phillips' wedding and last Christmas at Sandringham — gestures seen as support for the King.
