Prince Andrew set for ‘awkward conversations’ with Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie

Beatrice, 35, and Eugenie, 34, would always attend Trooping the Colour as children and young adults beside their father, despite never being working royals.

The late Queen would invite many extended family members to appear at the famous landmark event to show her growing family and a network of support.

But under the King’s reign, the sovereign has seemingly favoured a slimmed-down monarchy that excludes non-working royals.

In 2024, King Charles and Princess Kate have both begun cancer treatment, meaning that Eugenie and Beatrice could appear on the balcony to make up the numbers.

Laura Perkes, a PR specialist and communications consultant for emerging and established brands, spoke exclusively to GB News to explain whether or not the York Princesses’s loyalty to their father could complicate their attendance at Trooping the Colour.

She said: “There may be some awkward conversations happening privately behind closed doors, but publicly I don’t think we’ll get a sense of them feeling complicated.

“They have always been loyal to the Royal Family, choosing to lead very normal lives away from the public and the press.

“When they are seen at royal events they’re always immaculately presented and behave in a way that doesn’t attract unwanted attention.

“They will naturally feel loyalty towards their father, but his actions and behaviour have led to being ostracised from royal duties.

“Actions have consequences.

“Andrew’s children shouldn’t be punished because of his choices.”
