Here’s some additional info about the neverending saga of Poor Beatrice Just Wants Some Fancy Wedding Stuff. Beatrice can’t have nice things because her father was BFFs with a rapist pedophile and human trafficker. Beatrice can’t set the date for her wedding because her dad completely bungled the interview where he was supposed to apologize for his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. And Beatrice can’t even throw herself a big, splashy engagement party because her dad might show up and turn the party into a disgusting sh-tshow. So, Us Weekly says that Beatrice hasn’t really canceled the party, she’s just found a new venue: “she’s afraid that what’s supposed to be her special day will turn into a media circus. Instead, she’s opted for a more intimate party at a friend’s apartment.” That makes me feel sorry for the friend, who will probably have to disinfect their apartment after Prince Andrew slithers around.
Meanwhile, there’s something else to keep your eye on in the weeks and months to come: the issue of the York princesses’ residences and office. Before Andrew was fired from royal duties, Beatrice and Eugenie based their “office” within Andrew’s Buckingham Palace office. Now he’s been kicked out of BP. So the Yorks don’t have an office, and they’re worried they could get kicked out of all of the royal residences/offices in the future too:
Prince Andrew’s daughters Beatrice and Eugenie are said to be “very, very worried” over their royal futures in the fallout of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. The princesses are concerned about their patronages after the Queen forced their humiliated father to step back from royal duties, said the Daily Mirror’s Royal Editor Russell Myers.
Andrew, 59, lost his office at Buckingham Palace, where Beatrice, 31, and Eugenie, 29, had also based their royal duties, after his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview over his friendship with paedophile Epstein and claims, which he denies, that he had sex with a 17-year-old sex trafficking victim.
Mr Myers told ITV’s Lorraine: “You do feel sorry for them [Beatrice and Eugenie], really. They have been caught in this massive media storm, their father is an absolute pariah at the moment. He’s not going to be seen in public. They have a lot of patronages, do a lot of charity work even though they are not working royals. Prince Andrew had an event on Wednesday which embarrassingly has been forced to be moved out of St James’s Palace and into a hotel in central London. He no longer has an office at Buckingham Palace, hence they don’t either. They’re obviously very, very worried.”
I wouldn’t say that either York princess does “a lot” of charity work, but they both have charity patronages and they do some work with them. Is that enough to justify giving the York princesses their own office space in BP? I don’t know. But yeah… Beatrice and Eugenie should be concerned about their futures, because I don’t think the Queen will be able to protect them, especially with the courtiers gleefully throwing Beatrice under the bus too.

I always wonder what is going on with the nude slip under that dress in the last pic.
I think it’s just too tight and she couldn’t get it straightened out.
I just zoomed in and I think her underwear are peeking out. {I’m really not a creep}
*whispers: I thought so too! Slip was too short and too tight for her, and it rode up.
@Lurker, Your name and parenthetical words made me laugh in hysterics. Honestly, it’s a weird dress, and kind of obvious the flaw with it. You have to wonder what she was thinking. Oddly, even though the events with their father is kind of sad for them the dress was the first thing I wanted to comment on.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who wonders about this every time I see this photo.
In fashion, she is her mother’s daughter. Too fussy, too tight, and too “see me.”
Every time I wear my spanx slip, it rides up like that while I am sitting down. It doesn’t really feel like it, but I know it happens, so I either have to run to the ladies and fix it or make a concerted effort to keep it from happening. I feel like that is happening here
Oh where are all your i lov meg m comments today? After dm story yesterday. It was spot on!!!!
???
The texture of her slip and stockings/pantyhose cause the material being rough thus clingy causing the slip to ride up. I’ve had similar problems with similar styles. She needs those certain smoother tights that are less matte looking. Otherwise it’s like a static electricity or Velcro like clinginess.
I don’t understand why they had an office in the first place? Any charity work they, they do as private citizens. Being a HRH shouldn’t have qualified them for a private office
it didn’t…it qualified them to share their father’s office.
And why do they need to share his office? Other than he’s their dad? Do Peter and Zara share Anne’s office?
Which probably amounted to his secretary taking messages for them from time to time. So, I’m still not sure why they would need an office. They really just need a joint phone number and an answering machine if they are worried about their private numbers getting out. They don’t really do the kind of charity work that requires behind the scenes meetings.
@Ainsley7 – agreed. Lots of people do charity work without having a separate office for it (even if that office is part of their father’s.) To the extent they are doing any work with the Queen (not for, but with) – like the garden parties, one or two receptions a year (I know we have seen Eugenie at a few receptions in the past few years) – that seems like it could be coordinated through BP without having an “office.”
They are famous, which means they are inundated by press, fans, and kooks. An office allows them to filter contacts and respond when appropriate.
They had an office? I don’t see why, really.
Status symbol. They seem desperate not to be the forgotten royal princesses and an office in THE Buckingham Palace, probably made them feel important and entitled to respect. Anyway, they can thank their loser father for this happening now. Under Charles’ reign, they’ll probably lose their perks anyway.
I don’t believe anything US weekly says. So much royal “reporting” is complete malarkey. This is just space filler.
US Weekly is really on par with the Enquirer now.😶😑
What kind of horrible grandparent has a hierarchy of grandchildren and punishes them for their parents’ misdeeds?
Oh, wait…. the kind of grandparent who knowingly marries a racist, is from a Nazi family, shielded her son from the 2010 scandal when he had to quit as an envoy for being photographed with Epstein, who knowingly hosted Epstein repeatedly at her various castles since at least the year 2000, etc.
Trash. Family.
Knowingly marries a racist who is also her cousin….
Didn’t help her very young daughter-in-law when she begged (“that’s just how Charles is”)
Oh no! You mean their gravy train might run out of gravy??? Yeah, doubt it. I’d bet MY last dollar that Queenie is still siphoning off major £££s to Pedo’s accounts ahead of any inheritance he’ll get. She won’t let him sink.
The “girls” also have trusts set up, so I wouldn’t worry about them, financially, either. Eug’s hubs is from a very well to do family, so again, no worries there. Might they lose their “cottage” inside KP? Not while Granny is alive. Charles throwing them out? Maybe… depends on whether Pedo slithers away quietly enough, to go live in that £13M, FULLY STAFFED AT *ALL* TIMES chalet (that God knows how he could afford (*cough* shady, poss. illegal business deals/trading Govt info for cuts *cough*)
Will they be pariahs, too? Perhaps…for a while, while Pedo continues to give interviews crying “Poor, Poor Pitiful Me!” and Freeloader keeps up the frantic cry of “He’s such a handsome, DECENT Prince!”.
I think both women need to keep a down low profile now. The ostentatious party was really a dumb move.
Or perhaps, that IS Pedo’s ultimate goal: if he can’t “play”, he wants to take the ball away from everyone as he leaves.
We would find out if they were receiving Crown estate money or being rented a crown estate below market value. Any money going to Andrew would be from the Duchy of Lancaster at this point and they’ve always been stingy with it. It’s their insurance policy if the monarchy falls. If Philip and Charles get their way, Andrew won’t be getting any. Philip wanted him cut off in 2011. Andrew has never had trouble “making” his own money anyway.
That might be harder now his mate with all the money is now dead. Surely the media is quietly digging up more on this guys shady dealings. The dirt on him isn’t over.
The monarchy is finally going down, isn’t it. Or am I forgetting how good they’ve been at surviving everything else?
Silver lining to the break-up of the union is that the English will demand greater transparency of their Monarchy…. the RF is finally on it’s way out….
I cannot explain it, but I just can’t bring myself to feel sorry for these two. I know that they had no choice in who their awful parents are, but something about the entire York group just makes my skin crawl. Eugenie can’t cry, “but where will I live??” because she at least has a job and a husband with a job. Go buy your own flat or house like a grown up! Bea comes off as super entitled and too in line with her parents logic…or their version of logic.
same.
Same. It’s not like they’ve denounced what their father did. Or expressed their sympathies for Epstein’s victims, which is the very least they could do.
On a very shallow note, does anyone know what brand that dress is that Eugenie is wearing in the bottom photo? I love the material and colour. Thanks in advance.
If the monarch does go down then the maybe the Sussex’s can move stateside or to Canada and live a fruitful and happy lives away from the British press.
The British press can just follow them (Although to a lesser degree) and i doubt the US paparazzi and/or tabloids will be that much nicer than the Brits. I’m afraid that dirt and misery sell on both sides of the Atlantic.
Did you guys see the interview the actress Stephanie Powers gave on the royal family? Yes the actress from Hart to Hart?! It’s crazy. She’s supposedly ‘friends’ with Prince Charles but she goes in on Megan…but she also trash talks Andrew (now he deserves it!)
It’s just all over the place tho and the Daily Fail seems to know it but you know they took joy in publishing it!
My mom would put Hart to Hart on all the time on one of those rewind channels. I know that she nor the show have any real effect on my life, but MAN I cannot stand that show and that dislike just carried over to her as a human.
Freeway was the only good thing about that show.
Don’t forget Max, the “butler”!
What a vile woman. I’m sure Meghan is devastated that some has-been actress doesn’t think she’s good enough for the BRF. I think it’s a veiled racist jab because she’s bi-racial.
Powers was a career woman who had a long term affair with actor William Holden yet she is quoted as saying Meghan needs to just be a wife to Harry. Everything in the article she said about Meghan is unbelievably vicious.
Mommy and Daddy have been supporting those two with their ill-gotten money & favors from the most powerful and deplorable people on the planet…FOR DECADES…so, I’m here for ALL OF THIS!
Poor little entitled rich girls may have to pay for their accommodations. What a travesty! Not.
In this day an age, for the VERY limited amount they do do, they could just work from home, use skype and their cel phone LOL. No doubt they have a fancy room that could be converted to an office!! They are not hard charity workers, they did the bare minimum. And even their “jobs” (one works at a gallery I think) are based on who they are not real work and experience (wasn’t there something about how they spent more time on vacay that actually working).
They may not deserve banishment, but they will be fine as their Granny will likely have set up trust funds for them. But then again, their definition of wealth is different than ours! I can only imagine how their partners and their families must be cringing – here they thought they were marrying into Royalty, yet they married the wrong Royal – the pariah’s daughters – so not such a wonderful bloodline now – the grandfather of any future kids known as a creep who likes very young girl sand who hung around with a known pedo. That will follow each and everyone of Andrews descendants forever.
Oh and I’m not convinced that both these girls (and Sarah F) did not know but just simply turned a blind eye to Espstein – c’mon, didn’t they all iinvite him to events even AFTER it was known he was a pedo>?!!
Oh I agree with your last paragraph. How could they not know. Not only did they know but they all benefited from Andrew’s friendship with Epstein. And the fact that Maxwell & Epstein were at multiple palace’s for events mingling with other royals too.
The invitations for the girls, I won’t say a word. Many times the parents invited people to our parties we barely knew. But to not know about the father’s close friends?? No way! Of course Bea, Eugenie and Fergie knew very well. The world of the rich people is very closed, everyone knows everyone in the most intimate details. If mommy and daddy didn’t talk about the “nice” friends to them, her girlfriends did. Or do you think Andrew is the only one of the group with such… hummm…. tastes? And I go further: there’s a very high possibility that Fergie was around all those years profiting on some details she knew about her husband, being more prudent to keep her near, just in case. You know that old proverb: keep your friends near and your enemies even nearer? That’s it.
The more discussions about “working Royals” v. “Royal Family members” I hear, the smarter I think Princess Anne, Prince Edward and H&M were to not style their children “Prince” or “Princess” from the start. I’m sure it is a shock to be raised a “blood Princess” only to find it doesn’t mean much in the real world these days. At least with the Phillips children and Archie not having titles, they knew or will know that, while they’ll get a lot of perks and opportunities because of who they are, they can do what they want and not have expectations thrust upon them. And even though the Wessex children are Lady and Viscount, they will have seen how their elder cousins have been treated and can make their own decisions.
I actually really like Beas dress (though it’s clear her Spanx has ridden up) I think it suits her body shape and looks really good! I also like Eugs dress in these pics. As for Fergie, she’s such an awful woman with many many issues. I hope she has a good therapist as she seems so mixed up and unhappy in herself.
Meghan gets criticized for her not wearing nude hosiery nor a hat but no one in the press or RF says anything about blood-y princess Bea(st) showing way too much thigh fat & bra in lacy see through dresses. Clearly she missed out on granny’s How To Dress lessons.
Oh, she’s Blood, so whatever she does is OK? Her bf is generally well dressed so I’m surprised he hasn’t gifted her a stylist so he doesn’t have to be embarrassed at the beast’s inappropriate apparel.
Thigh fat and beast?
Yeah. Not cool, dude.
Beast. One has to wonder about the source of such deliberate cruelty. I suggest animal comparisons would be more aptly applied to her father, oui?
No sympathy for these two thirsty twits. Most people manage to do charity work without an office OR a palace— And going to parties is not “charity work “!
The fact that Prince Pedophile & Fergie gave their kids princess titles whereas Anne and Edward did not tells you all you need to know.
The greedy entitled fruit doesn’t fall far from the sleazy, greedy, entitled tree.
Why would they need/deserve a office at BP?? They barely have two personages each an we never see them do anything except join thequen & rest of royals in official events.
I hope Charles drops the bomb and stops this nonsense!! Its about time they cut off the none essential links especially as others pointed out the union breaking down soon+Brexit happening the focus will be back on the royals and once Scotland gets its independence they’ll have to adapt to keep with public confidence
While I think a lot of the royals are work shy and living on borrowed time, I do feel it’s unfair that Beatrice and Eugene have to be held accountable somehow for their fathers crimes.
It’s like when people ask a wife / sister / female friend why her boyfriend / husband / friend acted in a certain way and said certain things – why hold someone else (especially a woman) to account for their predatory, skeevy, shady behaviour?
They didn’t choose their parents.
I was amazed how many people held ME responsible for my now ex husband sleeping with students in his department (he’s a college professor). Apparently I was supposed to monitor his every waking moment, and that there was no way I could have NOT known about it. His alcoholism is also my fault as well. It’s amazing how when things go south it’s always the woman’s fault.
I don’t believe in holding Bea and Eugénie responsible for Andrew’s misdeeds. They are probably still in shock and who knows what the men in suits are telling them to say, do, etc
Oh Rose, I am so sorry to hear that. It’s so bloody unfair how somehow we women are supposed to be held to account for other people’s (especially men’s) behaviour.
I do hope you’ve found peace and happiness now.
