Buckingham Palace "appreciates" Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice for their "blameless" royal move, according to an insider.
The York sisters, who are not working members of the Royal Family, consistently spark conversation and debate surrounding their public roles.
It is understood that King Charles is fond of his nieces and that Prince William, the heir to the throne, could use their help with the share of royal engagements when he is King.
Princess Eugenie, 35, was recently named as a mentor for a programme within the King's Foundation. Also in May, Beatrice, 36, joined the King and Queen at Kew Gardens for a royal charity event.

Despite Buckingham Palace appearing to appreciate the hard work of the York sisters in recent months, a source close to the Princesses insisted they will not become working royals in the future.
The insider told Hello!: "They both believe in the institution and what the Royal Family represents, and have always been willing to do their bit and support it if they can.
"They're fond of their cousins, and that sense of duty is something they believe in. Despite having commercial careers, to their credit, they haven't put a foot wrong.
"It's always difficult for members of the family who are half-out, but they have done it blamelessly."
Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie occasionally perform duties in a private capacity.

Beatrice works at the tech company Afiniti, while Eugenie is a director at the art gallery Hauser and Wirth.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sparked controversy in 2020 when they wanted to become financially independent while carrying out royal duties.
However, the York sisters have never had official working roles or benefited from taxpayer money.
The insider continued: "They have full-time jobs and families, and I think they like the balance they have in terms of being career women and mothers, while also being able to do their bit to support the royals.
Princess Eugenie recently joined The King's Foundation.

Reuters“Whether at some point that changes, I don't know.
"Once the Prince of Wales is on the throne, he'll have his own decisions to make, but I don't think it's something that either of them is pushing for at the moment.
"They are lovely, charming young women, everyone who knows them says that.
"They are a credit to their parents and to the family, and it's obvious that that's being appreciated a bit more at the Palace."
