Ex-Prince Andrew’s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, have kept a low profile compared to the rest of the royal family, building lives around their careers and charities. But a new report suggests the sisters may soon come to face a decision that could shape how the public views them and the royals. They have the choice to either keep quiet and risk staying associated with a scandal they did not create, or to step forward and risk upsetting a palace culture that has always preferred silence.
Ex-Prince Andrew’s daughters could be deciding force behind Royal Family’s fate, says source
Closer reported that, until recently, ex-Prince Andrew’s daughters mostly avoided any scrutiny tied to the royal family’s long-running controversy due to Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. But that has now changed. Now, the sisters are reportedly under pressure to address questions that have followed their family for years.
A source told Closer, “There’s a growing feeling that staying quiet is no longer an option, that there’s an obligation for them to tell their side to the right people,” suggesting they may feel a separate need to protect their own reputations in the court of public opinion.
Moreover, the source said, “Doing a sit-down interview is not their style but a tasteful and measured memoir with the facts and a lot of emotion is an option that’s being put forth.” Per the source, the motivation goes beyond palace politics. In that, the sisters still love their parents, “but more than that, they want to protect their own kids.” Hence, “There’s a sense that if they don’t take control of the narrative now, they may never get the chance.”
At the same time, a royal commentator, Richard Fitzwilliams, told the Daily Mail, “It may fall to William to make a decision on the future of Beatrice and Eugenie,” adding that they are not “particularly close” to Prince William or Kate Middleton, and said they “would probably not miss them.” However, Closer reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may support the York sisters behind the scenes.
