You have to hand it to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor<\/a> and Sarah Ferguson<\/a> – they really have tried to have a impact on their daughters’ lives. Sadly for Princess Beatrice<\/a>, 37, her hapless parents have caused tensions with her in-laws, while for Eugenie, Andrew and Fergie have humiliated her one step further.<\/p>\n It’s been revealed that married mother-of-two Eugenie<\/a>, 35, felt compelled to step down as patron of the charity<\/a> Anti-Slavery International, a role she held for seven years. The 187-year-old charity<\/a> – the world’s oldest human rights organisation – was originally founded as the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society in 1839 to fight slavery and related abuses.<\/p>\n The UK-based organisation thanked the princess for her support and confirmed its relationship had ended, giving no reason for the dramatic severing of ties.<\/p>\n But I think we can all guess which two of her relatives the charity increasingly did not want to be linked to.<\/p>\n Her departure comes after the Charity Commission confirmed it was “assessing concerns” about a separate charity, The Anti-Slavery Collective, which the princess co-founded in 2017.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Andrew’s denied any wrongdoing but he and Fergie have been exposed – through the US-released Jeffrey Epstein Files – of having a shameless, grasping and fawning relationship with the dead paedophile financier.<\/p>\n Andrew’s shock arrest last month on suspicion of misconduct in a public office while working as a UK trade envoy, by allegedly leaking government information to Epstein, has only added to the pressure on Eugenie.<\/p>\n Anti-Slavery International describes its mission as helping to prevent slavery in its many forms, including child slavery, forced labour and human trafficking.<\/p>\n In 2008 Jeffrey Epstein admitted procuring a 14-year-old for prostitution and spent a year in prison before being released, but he was indicted for sex trafficking when he died in prison awaiting trial.<\/p>\n It has been claimed that with Andrew’s and Fergie’s links to Epstein – and Epstein facing sex trafficking allegations – Eugenie’s role at the charity was in the spotlight.<\/p>\n Additionally, the photos released in January by the US Department of Justice showing Andrew kneeling on all fours over a female lying on the ground also rang alarm bells for the charity.<\/p>\n
