Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, are reportedly still renting properties in the Royal Palaces due to an agreement struck by their father. Andrew was forced to leave his Windsor home in February following scrutiny over his links to paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein. The former prince was stripped of his royal titles last year, but both his daughters can keep theirs.
The sisters, who both primarily reside outside London, pay an undisclosed sum of rent to the King in order to retain their second homes. Beatrice has an apartment in St James’s Palace and Eugenie has Ivy Cottage, a property at Kensington Palace. A source told The Times: “The [rental] deal was made with their father as he wanted them to have a foothold in the royal palaces.”
Eugenie lives in Portugal with her husband Jack Brooksbank and their children, August and Ernest.
Andrew was arrested last month on suspicion of misconduct in public office after being accused of sharing sensitive information with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein while he was the UK’s trade envoy. He has not been charged and has denied any wrongdoing.
