Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie Face "Difficult Dilemma" Surrounding Princess Kate's Festive Invitation

Princess Kate's annual Christmas carol service is just around the corner on December 5, and amid the festive cheer at Westminster Abbey, there's also the question of whether certain members of the Royal Family will attend. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has never gone to the concert—and is understood to have never received an invitation, in any case—but his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, are regular fixtures at the Together at Christmas event.

This year, the York sisters' attendance is unclear amid dad Andrew's title-stripping scandal and eviction from Royal Lodge. Buckingham Palace announced that The King had removed the former Duke of York's titles and honors, including his prince title, on October 30. However, Beatrice and Eugenie are still princesses, and their royal status has remained intact.
