Princess Eugenie brutally 'snubs' Andrew - however Princess Beatrice has a different approach

The former Duke of York was stripped of his remaining royal titles late last year

It has been a few months now since Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was formally stripped of his royal titles by his brother, King Charles III.

The decision, which came in late October/early November of last year, followed mounting pressure over Andrew's ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Many royal fans were curious as to what would happen to Andrew's immediate family; his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, and their daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.

The pair continue to live as non-working royals, maintaining their titles, while navigating the fallout from their father's scandals, which also led to him being evicted from Royal Lodge.

And, in the latest update, Eugenie has reportedly 'snubbed' her father in refusing to speak to him and not visiting him at Royal Lodge over Christmas.

Eugenie and Beatrice opted to spend Christmas Day with King Charles, Prince William and Kate Middleton at Sandringham instead.

As per the Daily Express, Andrew is said to be 'devastated' at the 'snub'.

Beatrice, contrastingly, has tried to remain in contact with her father, while also 'maintaining her reputation in the Royal Family', the outlet added.

She reportedly invited Andrew to the christening of her 11-month-old daughter Athena in London last month, but he avoided a party held afterwards in a local pub.

The source added: "Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family - but Eugenie isn't trying to walk that line. She's not speaking to him."

Commentator Charlie Proctor previously explained the King's decision to invite Eugenie and Beatrice to the festive service at St Mary Magdalene Church - despite the pair usually attending with their parents.

Writing on the Royal Central website, Proctor began: "For several years now, Beatrice and Eugenie have existed in a kind of constitutional limbo.

"Not working royals, yet not quite private citizens either; loyal daughters, but daughters of a man whose name has become shorthand for reputational damage.

"Every public appearance has therefore carried an unspoken question – are they being unintentionally punished for Andrew's public controversy, or carefully insulated from it? This week's answer was clear. They are to be insulated.

"The King's Christmas lunch is not a casual family meal but a curated guest list, one that signals who remains within the perimeter of royal acceptability."

Tyla has reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment.
