Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are not working members of the Royal Family

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's close relationship with Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie is "concerning" members of the Royal Family, an insider has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex has always had a strong bond with his cousins and this has continued after he stepped down as a working member of the Royal Family in 2020.


Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are not working members of the Royal Family.

However, Prince Andrew's daughters remain in the loop with ongoing issues within Buckingham Palace, a source has claimed.

The insider told Heat Magazine: "For the King, Camilla, and the Waleses, it's rather unfortunate that Eugenie and Beatrice are so close with the Sussexes."

They added: "[Beatrice and Eugenie are] still privy to a lot of what's happening inside Buckingham Palace, so there's a concern about what they're telling them, and what they could reveal - even unintentionally".

It comes as Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice look set to be the next members of the Royal Family to be evicted from a royal residence, according to a source.

King Charles has already evicted his son Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from Frogmore Cottage this year.

The King also made several attempts to get his brother Prince Andrew to leave the Royal Lodge, according to reports.

However, the Duke of York and the King have since come to an agreement that will allow Andrew to remain at his home.

Since Meghan and Harry vacated the property in the summer of 2023, Andrew's daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice have stayed at the property on numerous occasions.

Princess Eugenie lives in Portugal with her husband Jack Brooksbank and their two young children but she stays at Frogmore Cottage when she visits the UK.

The source said: "[Andrew has] allowed his daughters to make use of the property when they visit the Windsor estate."

The insider continued: "Eugenie uses the cottage the most when she visits the UK from her home in Portugal.

"Beatrice also uses Frogmore when she visits her parents or undertakes royal duties.

"But neither of them has considered an expensive lease or the other expenses that come with it."
