Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie told to avoid spotlight: 'Will exacerbate tensions in Royal Family'

A PR expert spoke exclusively to GB News to explain why the York sisters, as well as their cousin Zara Tindall, are unlikely to take a royal promotion.

Alison Lancaster, the co-founder of Pressat, said: "The glaring spotlight will inevitably exacerbate tensions around their work-life balance and boundaries.

"Beatrice and Eugenie already have thriving careers - adding royal duties to that mix is a serious bandwidth consideration."

Princess Beatrice, 35, is the vice president of tech company Afiniti, while her younger sister Eugenie, 34, is a director at the art gallery Hauser & Wirth.

Lancaster continued: "Zara is an internationally competitive athlete, and royals love their landed sporting pursuits!

"Then there's the training and professionalisation required, polishing everything from their speech skills to modern social intelligence.

"These newly minted working royals will be rookie ambassadors for the monarchy.

"One slip-up goes globally viral in seconds nowadays.

"Open communication, adhering to guidance, and deftly navigating personal and professional overlap are mandatory for long-term success.

"Royal promotions would involve singlehandedly redefining public perceptions of what a royal woman looks like in this century.

"The first generation of thriving, self-actualised working royals who are so much more than just figurative window dressing.

"It's high-risk, sky-high reward territory.

"However, they have precisely the mettle and mass appeal to pull it off remarkably."
