Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice share emotional embrace in first joint outing since dad Andrew was stripped of titles

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are leaning on each other.

The sisters were spotted sharing a heartfelt hug in London on Thursday, as their father, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, was officially stripped of his royal titles.

The pair, both bundled up in winter coats, walked together through the exclusive section of Mayfair, stopping on a street corner for a deep conversation before sharing an emotional embrace, as captured in photos obtained by The Daily Mail on Friday.

The siblings’ meeting took place the same day their uncle, King Charles III, issued a letters patent informing the public that their father “shall no longer be entitled to hold and enjoy the style, title or attribute of ‘Royal Highness’ and the titular dignity of ‘Prince.'”

Their mother, Sarah Ferguson, who was known as the Duchess of York, has also lost her title alongside her ex-husband.

The King, additionally, ordered the disgraced couple to vacate their longtime home, Royal Lodge.

Mountbatten Windsor’s astonishing fall from grace stems from his friendship with the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Interest in the friendship was revived by the publication of Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir “Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice.”

Giuffre, who died by suicide earlier this year, long claimed she was sex trafficked by Epstein and his partner, convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.

She alleged she had been forced to sleep with the former prince.

Mountbatten Windsor always denied the charges but made an out-of-court settlement payment in 2022, reportedly in the millions.

Epstein died by suicide in 2019, aged 66.

Last week, the Palace announced that the King had started the process to remove the “Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew,” and ended the statement noting that “their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse.”

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were both out of the country as the news went viral, traveling in Saudi Arabia and Paris, respectively.

There are no plans for the sisters to lose their titles.
