Following the news that the royal previously known as Prince Andrew has been stripped of his 'prince' title, questions have been raised over the futures of his two daughters.

Buckingham Palace officials confirmed in a statement released last night (30 Oct) that King Charles III had made the decision to remove the 65-year-old's princedom in light of damning new revelations over his relationship with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

"His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew," the latest ruling reads.

It was also revealed that the father-of-two had simultaneously received something of an eviction notice from the monarch, demanding that he and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson remove themselves from the royal residence in which they've lived since 2004.

"His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence," the message continued.

"Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease, and he will move to alternative private accommodation."

The decision was made following the posthumous release of Virginia Giuffe's harrowing memoir, Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, last week - before which Andrew was also stripped of his 'Duke of York' title.

His ex-wife Sarah Ferguson also lost her 'Duchess of York' privileges, after a supposed email from the mother-of-two to Epstein in 2011 was published, where she reportedly described him as a 'supreme friend'.

Whilst Palace officials failed to reference either Ferguson or her and Andrew's two daughters in the latest statement, it's thought that Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie will retain their royal titles.

This is thanks to King George V's Letters Patent of 1917, which rules that the offspring of a sovereign, and the offspring of a sovereign's son, be afforded these privileges at birth.

On top of this, neither of the princesses are working royals - in fact, Beatrice, 37, works as a strategist for the tech firm Afiniti, and Eugenie, 35, works as a director of a Mayfair art gallery called Hauser & Wirth.

This means that neither of the sisters represent the King in any public capacity.

As such, the scandal surrounding their father will likely not be seen as a reflection upon their characters.

Unlike their parents, it's thought by royal experts that both Beatrice and Eugenie will continue living peacefully with their families.

For reference, the former owns a house in the Cotswolds with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and their two daughters, also owning state-funded apartments at St James's Palace.

Eugenie, meanwhile, primarily lives in Portugal with her husband Jack Brooksbank and their two sons, but also resides at the state-funded Ivy Cottage at Kensington Palace.

Royal commentator Victoria Murphy previously explained of the pair: "As far as Beatrice and Eugenie go, I think there's an appreciation of the fact that this scandal doesn't involve them, and it's not fair for it to impact them directly in the independent lives they are carving out for themselves."
