Sarah Ferguson and Andrew’s daughters Princess Eugenie and Beatrice have been issued stark warning amid the controversies surrounding their parents.
Royal expert Jennie Bond has warned Eugenie and Beatrice about “being tarred with the same brush as their parents” as they work to distance themselves from their scandals.
Speaking to the Mirror, Jennie warned the York sisters, “So far, they have emerged relatively unscathed, although personally I think they would be wise to curtail their business activities and visits to the dripping-with-money venues of the Middle East.”
Eugenie and Beatrice need to be "careful not to become tarred with the same brush as their parents: both Andrew and Fergie appear to have been seduced by great wealth for much of their lives, and their reckless pursuit of that wealth has been part of their undoing.”
Commenting on Kate Middleton’s latest olive branch to Eugenie and Beatrice, Jennie said, “I assume that Catherine sends out personal invitations every year to members of the Royal Family. That would be the normal thing to do when you are organising an event like this, and the sisters have been regular fixtures at the carol concert, so it would be a very pointed criticism of them if the Princess had omitted them from the guest list this year.”
Princess Beatrice and Eugenie have reportedly received personal invitations for this year’s ‘Together at Christmas’ from Kate Middleton.
About their participation, the royal expert told the Mirror, “It has been made clear throughout the scandal involving Andrew that Beatrice and Eugenie remain valued members of the royal family and will be invited to get-togethers like this, as well as Christmas at Sandringham. It will be up to them to decide if they want to face the cameras and join the rest of the royal family, or spend time with their parents.”
