Speculation surrounding Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie's titles and future plans have been swirling in recent weeks amid the scandals involving their parents, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. But on Thursday, October 30, further questions were raised when Buckingham Palace released a bombshell statement announcing that the former Duke of York was being stripped of all of his titles and honors by King Charles.
Although the former prince will now be known simply as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, Marie Claire understands that Eugenie and Beatrice will keep their royal titles and styles. Because of King George V's Letters Patent of 1917, Andrew's daughters—who are granddaughters of Queen Elizabeth II—will remain known as Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie.
