Princesses Leave UK After Yorks Relinquish Titles

Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie have quietly left the UK amid fallout from their parents Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson relinquishing the Duke and Duchess of York titles over scrutiny tied to Jeffrey Epstein. Eugenie was photographed on a girls’ trip in Paris while Beatrice attended the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh, where she likely represented her employer, Afiniti. Palace insiders denied rumours that Prince William threatened to strip the sisters of their titles and said the princesses’ status and residences remain secure. Reports indicate Prince Andrew may be preparing to leave the 30‑room Royal Lodge and has sought separate homes for himself and Fergie, and the palace has sought to clarify commentary suggesting William asked the sisters to intervene. Both women have kept a low public profile — skipping events such as the Pink Ball — and continue their professional roles, Beatrice at Afiniti and Eugenie at Hauser & Wirth.
