With the intense fallout that has come about ever since Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor<\/a> and Sarah Ferguson’s<\/a> ties to paedophile Jeffrey Epstein<\/a> have become public, few people have been more affected than their daughters, Princess Beatrice<\/a> and Princess Eugenie<\/a>.<\/p>\n While the pair still have their royal titles thanks to rules that date back to 1917<\/a>, it has been suggested that their uncle, King Charles<\/a>, hopes they will take on a few more royal duties in the future. \u201cIt was something that was being looked at before recent events but despite what has happened with Andrew, it\u2019s not off the cards,\u201d a royal source told Tatler<\/a>. \u201cWhatever people might think of Andrew, the girls are kind, hardworking and want to help if they can.\u201d<\/p>\n Both Beatrice and Eugenie are not working members of the Royal Family<\/a> and currently balance their own careers with motherhood and personal charity work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n According to sources close to the King, Tatler reports that<\/a> \u201cthe monarch is fond of his nieces and doesn\u2019t want them to suffer because of their father\u2019s downfall.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThere was no deal struck about the future for Beatrice and Eugenie, they are private individuals in that respect, but there have been talks for some time about using them when and if there is a need.

In the past, the princesses have attended royal garden parties as ambassadors for the family and other overseas events. They also represent charities of their own – Princess Beatrice<\/a> is a keen supporter of dyslexia charities and Princess Eugenie<\/a> makes frequent visits to spinal injury charities after her own experience with scolosis.<\/p>\n According to a source close to the princesses, Beatrice and Eugenie “recognize there is a responsibility to support their uncle and they want to support him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
