Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie returned to the royal spotlight in Gloucestershire on Saturday as they joined senior members of the royal family for the wedding of Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling, an event from which Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were, according to royal commentators, deliberately left off the guest list to avoid overshadowing the bride.
The York sisters' appearance at St. Mary the Virgin Church marked their first inclusion in a major royal gathering since their father, Prince Andrew, was arrested, and amid renewed scrutiny over reports that King Charles covers the full costs of their palace homes. Their re-emergence came at a wedding that quietly revealed who is in and who is very firmly out of the inner royal circle.
