Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie have reportedly been involved in a secret palace plan to quietly distance themselves from the traditional royal monarchy amidst the fallout from their father
Prince Andrew’s scandal and the stripping of his royal titles. Sources say the sisters, while retaining their princess titles, have taken separate getaways abroad to avoid the mounting scrutiny and to consider their future outside the core royal family framework.
According to insider reports, the move is seen as a step toward gradually stepping back from active royal duties and public life, although neither has officially renounced their titles. The palace appears to be supportive of their decision, understanding the intense media pressure they face due to their parents’ controversial past.
Princess Beatrice was recently spotted attending the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, while Princess Eugenie was seen enjoying a private trip to Paris with friends, signaling their physical and symbolic departure from the UK’s royal spotlight.
Though both princesses will keep their HRH styles per longstanding royal protocols, there is growing speculation they may eventually take on more independent, charitable, or business endeavors outside typical royal expectations.
