Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, have reportedly remained in contact with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex ever since they moved to the US.

Prince William and Princess Kate are "not worried" about Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie "getting closer" to their estranged family members Meghan and Harry, according to a royal commentator.

Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's daughters have reportedly remained in contact with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex ever since they left the UK and moved across the pond to the US.


Speaking to GBN America, Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan said: "I find this interesting because I wonder which camp this is really coming out of, because I think among the worries that William and Kate have, that might be further down the list.

"We just learned that Kate will probably not be making a public appearance again for the rest of 2024. King Charles is, of course, in the middle of his cancer battle.

I find it a little bit hard to believe that they would be that worried about, let's be honest, lesser royals becoming closer to Harry and Meghan full well knowing the liabilities that would cost them.

"They already have a father who, in essence, a Prince in exile. They have to make a very calculated decision as to which house these two, Beatrice and Eugenie, want to ally themselves with.

"Is it Camp Montecito, which is losing brand points and credibility and likeability by the second?

"Or is it with Kate and William, the future King and Queen, whose popularity has never been higher, especially in the States?"

However, this is not everyone's view, as royal commentator Tom Quinn has claimed that Kate and William are "worried" about the alliance.

He told the Mirror: "For William and Kate, an alliance between Harry and Meghan and Beatrice and Eugenie is a huge worry.”

He added: "They sense that Beatrice and Eugenie feel that, as virtual outcasts themselves, they have far more in common with Harry and Megan than with any other part of the family.

"The situation is made worse by the fact that the senior royals’ main asset – Kate herself - is effectively out of action while she continues her treatment for cancer.

"Last week, Princess Eugenie issued a statement highlighting the importance of "supporting family" after she attended a garden party hosted by Prince William.

The Prince of Wales was joined by non-working members of the Royal Family including Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice, Zara Tindall and Mike Tindall.

Crowds waited in the Buckingham Palace gardens under umbrellas for the Royal Family members to arrive ahead of the party.

The Princess of York said: "Come rain or shine, I was delighted to support my family yesterday to meet some special individuals at the Buckingham Palace Garden Party who have gone above and beyond to support their local communities and the country."
