With the release of A Very Royal Scandal underway, Prince Andrew‘s family is being very cautious. But the question is…are they still close with one another?

Prince Andrew faced a lot of scrutiny due to his alleged relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and the interview would serve as a way to save his public image. Prince Andrew said he “regretted” his connection to Epstein but had no memory of ever meeting Giuffre. In wake of the scandal, Prince Andrew’s team and his daughter Beatrice set up an interview with BBC’s NewsNight that proved to be a PR nightmare instead.

LONDON, ENGLAND - MARCH 07: Prince Andrew The Duke of York arrives at the Headquarters of CrossRail in Canary Wharf on March 7, 2011 in London, England. Prince Andrew is under increasing pressure after a series of damaging revelations about him, including criticism over his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, an American financier surfaced.

Days later, Prince Andrew asked Queen Elizabeth to take a step back from his public royal duties. In 2022, Andrew was stripped of his military titles after a judge ruled a sexual abuse civil lawsuit against him could proceed, which he settled. Prince Andrew hasn’t been in the spotlight ever since the scandal came out, but did his actions affect his daughters?

Does Prince Andrew still see Princess Beatrice & Eugenie?

Prince Andrew seems to still have a complicated relationship with his daughters. Royal expert Angela Levin explains that Eugenie moving to Portugal might have been the right move in the midst of his scandal.

“I don’t know if Eugenie would have sat down with her father and had a chat to maintain a relationship after the scandal,” Levin explained to The Sun. “She’s moved to Portugal. I know she wanted to get away from London and maybe she feels she wants to get away from the scandal. The move could have been to get away from the problems with her dad, but her husband has a very well-paid job out there and she’s extremely happy.”

Meanwhile, Princess Beatrice was seen to be emotional after the interview aired. “Beatrice was sombre and make-up-free for the birthday dinner,’ a source told Daily Mail. when she was hosting her fiancé’s birthday party at the tine. “She was probably worried that her mascara would run. She seemed quite tearful at times. In fact, Beatrice has been in tears every day since the interview went out.”

Even though the two seemed to be distanced from their disgraced father, Prince Andrew attended her wedding to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. However, he did not appear in the official wedding portraits released by Buckingham Palace.

In regards to how they were portrayed in A Very Royal Scandal, Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson aren’t pleased with the results. Meanwhile, Eugenie and Beatrice are going to keep mum. One of their friends told The Daily News that the sisters are “torn between their love for their father and their horror at the compromising situation that he has embroiled them all in”.

However, a source told The Daily Beast, “This film is going to traduce their father and if they say anything to defend him it will just make it worse.” One friend of Beatrice said, “There is nothing good you can say about it all. It’s ghastly for all of them. The girls are just getting on with their lives.”
