Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie have privately appealed to Kate Middleton at royal residences in the UK in recent weeks, according to a report, urging the Princess of Wales to help stop Prince William from potentially stripping them of their royal titles when he becomes king.
The news came after fresh scrutiny over Prince Andrew's association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein reignited questions about the position of his daughters within the monarchy. Beatrice, 37, and Eugenie, 35, long regarded as junior but visible members of the Firm, are now said to be at the centre of fraught internal conversations over their future roles, homes and status once William eventually succeeds King Charles.
