Princess Beatrice is "annoyed and upset" as she prepares for a tough week, a royal commentator has claimed.
On Friday, a new Netflix film titled Scoop is set to drop, which will take a look at Prince Andrew's career-ending Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis.
The interview famously resulted in the Duke of York stepping down from royal duties, after he publicly discussed his connections with the late convicted sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein.
Princess Beatrice, 35, accompanied her father to one of the negotiations with Andrew, Maitlis, and the former Newsnight producer, Sam McAlister.

This is set to be reenacted in the Netflix film, with actress Charity Wakefield playing the Princess of York.
Ahead of the release, royal commentator Jennie Bond explained how members of the York family will be feeling.
She said: "[Andrew] ought to be thoroughly flattered that a showstopper like Rufus Sewell is playing him.
"There’s no doubt that it’s going to mean more embarrassment for him.
Charity Wakefield playing Princess Beatrice in ScoopNetflix"The renewed publicity only shines a light again on all that has happened and that he would undoubtedly rather forget about."
Bond continued: "I don’t think he will take much solace from the fact that it has been given the Netflix treatment.
"It only means that the whole story episode will now be broadcast to a wider audience than ever before.
"It’s altogether very bad news for Andrew and, indeed, for his whole family."

Bond continued to tell OK!: "Beatrice, in particular, will undoubtedly be annoyed and upset that her part in setting up and monitoring the interview will now be made so much more public.
"And there has already been much emphasis on the fact that Andrew was delighted with the interview immediately after it was completed.
"How stupid does that make him look? And he won’t like that at all.
LATEST ROYAL NEWS:
Gillian Anderson and Rufus Sewell playing Maitlis and the prince in the Netflix film ScoopNetflix"So it all signals more difficult times ahead for the Yorks."
Prince Andrew has had a more visible appearance under the reign of his older brother, King Charles, than he did for the last few years of Queen Elizabeth II's reign.
For example, he joined the royal walkabout on the Sandringham Estate for the last two years, and led the procession of royals into St George's Chapel for King Constantine of Greece's memorial service.
The Duke of York was also one of the few members of the Royal Family to join the King and Queen for the Easter Sunday church service last week.
