Given the scrutiny with which the whole ordeal is being watched, it’s hardly a surprise that questions are now being asked concerning not only what will happen to Andrew from here on out, but also what will happen to his immediate family.
It’s been reported that his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, will experience little to no change as a result of their father’s alleged misconduct, but the same cannot be said for Sarah Ferguson.
The Yorks continued to reside together thereafter at Royal Lodge in Windsor, raising Beatrice and Eugenie. Ferguson supported Andrew amidst the slew of accusations he faced in 2022, claiming her ex-husband needed a break from the “focus” so that he could “rebuild” his life.
“With Prince Andrew, he’s such a good man,” Fergie told ITV at the time. “He’s a kind, good man. And I think the spotlight needs to come off him and let him get on with his life to rebuild.”
According to reports, Ferguson has also now lost her courtesy title following Andrew being stripped of his titles. The BBC say she will now be refer back to her maiden name of Ferguson, which one royal commentator, Richard Palmer, claims is perhaps more of a blow than people realise.
