Princess Beatrice reportedly maintains contact with her father, Prince Andrew, while Princess Eugenie has completely cut ties. Beatrice is navigating a delicate position within the Royal Family, balancing her relationship with Andrew and her commitment to royal proximity. Eugenie's decision is linked to her father's refusal to apologize to Jeffrey Epstein's victims.
Princess Beatrice is reportedly still on speaking terms with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and maintaining her reputation with the Royal Family, it has been reported. Although she is still speaking to him, the 37-year-old is said to be walking on "the fine line" amid her younger sister's decision to cut contact with their dad.
Beatrice is also known to be adamant in "remaining close" to the royals, just weeks after being pictured alongside them on Christmas Day at the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. According to a source quoted in the Mail on Sunday, "Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family."
