But a new report suggests the sisters may soon come to face a decision that could shape how the public views them and the royals. They have the choice to either keep quiet and risk staying associated with a scandal they did not create, or to step forward and risk upsetting a palace culture that has always preferred silence.<\/p>\n<p>Ex-Prince Andrew\u2019s daughters could be deciding force behind Royal Family\u2019s fate, says source<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a href=\"https:\/\/closeronline.co.uk\/celebrity\/news\/princess-beatrice-eugenie-tear-royals-apart\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Closer;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Closer<\/a> reported that, until recently, ex-Prince Andrew\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2026\/02\/23\/ex-prince-andrew-daughters-arrest-crisis-talks-king-report\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:daughters;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">daughters<\/a> mostly avoided any scrutiny tied to the royal family\u2019s long-running controversy due to Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.

Now, the sisters are reportedly under pressure to address questions that have followed their family for years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">A source told Closer, \u201cThere\u2019s a growing feeling that staying quiet is no longer an option, that there\u2019s an obligation for them to tell their side to the right people,\u201d suggesting they may feel a separate need to protect their own reputations in the court of public opinion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Moreover, the source said, \u201cDoing a sit-down interview is not their style but a tasteful and measured memoir with the facts and a lot of emotion is an option that\u2019s being put forth.\u201d Per the source, the motivation goes beyond palace politics. In that, the sisters still love their parents, \u201cbut more than that, they want to protect their own kids.\u201d Hence, \u201cThere\u2019s a sense that if they don\u2019t take control of the narrative now, they may never get the chance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">At the same time, a royal commentator, Richard Fitzwilliams, told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/royals\/article-15564063\/William-Kate-wont-miss-Beatrice-Eugenie-Royal-insider-reveals-Prince-Wales-wont-struggle-hard-line-cousins.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Daily Mail;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Daily Mail<\/a>, \u201cIt may fall to William to make a decision on the future of Beatrice and Eugenie,\u201d adding that they are not \u201cparticularly close\u201d to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2026\/02\/18\/prince-william-ex-prince-andrew-daughters-rift-expert\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Prince William;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Prince William<\/a> or Kate Middleton, and said they \u201cwould probably not miss them.\u201d However, Closer reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may support the York sisters behind the scenes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Originally reported by Ishika Mishra on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2026\/02\/24\/ex-prince-andrew-daughters-royal-family-fate-report\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Reality Tea;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Reality Tea<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\/news\/1734935-ex-prince-andrew-daughters-royal-family-fate-report\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Ex-Prince Andrew\u2019s Daughters Can Tip the Balance of Royal Family \u2014 Source;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Ex-Prince Andrew\u2019s Daughters Can Tip the Balance of Royal Family \u2014 Source<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Mandatory;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ex-Prince Andrew\u2019s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, have kept a low profile compared to the rest of&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":308953,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[146,85,46,27977,21488,12805,101080],"class_list":{"0":"post-308952","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-il","10":"tag-israel","11":"tag-princess-beatrice","12":"tag-public-opinion","13":"tag-the-royal-family","14":"tag-william"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=308952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/308953"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=308952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=308952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=308952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
