King Charles and Prince William have been urged to make a brutal call on the futures of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. Pressure on the sisters has been mounting after it was claimed they had flown to America with their mother, Sarah Ferguson, within days of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein being released from prison.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his ex-wife lost their royal titles last year over their links to the paedophile. Beatrice and Eugenie’s positions in the Firm remained largely unaffected but after they were named in the Epstein Files questions have been asked as to whether they should keep their titles and homes in royal palaces.
Beatrice currently remains ninth in the line of succession, with Eugenie in 12th following her sister’s two daughters.
The sisters were granted princess titles following their births in 1988 and 1990 – although there have now been calls for the pair to experience the same fate as their disgraced parents.
Royal expert Robert Jobson believes the King and William should “make the call” and strip them of being princesses.
He said: “In the end, the rule should be simple: you work for the Crown, you keep the title. You don’t, you don’t. Charles and William need to make that call.”
In contrast to Mr Jobson, PR expert Lynn Carratt, from E20 Communications, has said that removing their princess titles could risk creating “unnecessary complications for the Royal Family”.
She told GB News: “Stripping them (Beatrice and Eugenie) of titles would risk creating public backlash.”
She added: “Their roles as royal princesses and as private individuals carving out their own careers and identities remain separate from Andrew’s controversies.”
Although neither Beatrice nor Eugenie is a full-time working royal, they remain part of the wider Royal Family and still attend major events such as Christmas and Easter gatherings.
The sisters, both mothers, also have jobs outside the Firm and undertake private charity work.
