Princess Beatrice and Eugenie were seen hugging in the street after their father, Andrew, had his titles removed, and a lip reader has claimed one of the sisters issued a hopeless warning to her sibling
Princesses Beatrice reportedly told her sister Eugenie that “it’s going to get harder” and “we can’t do anything”, after Andrew had his titles removed, a lip reader has claimed.
ex-Prince Andrew’s daughters were spotted meeting on November 7 near Green Park and Buckingham Palace in central London, displaying rare public emotion for working royals. It marked their first joint public appearance since Andrew’s Jeffrey Epstein connections prompted the King to dramatically strip away his royal honours.
Andrew has consistently rejected all allegations of misconduct.
The sighting coincides with over 20,000 pages of emails and evidence regarding Epstein’s associations and criminal activities being published in the US by the House Oversight Committee.

The controversy has sent shockwaves through the Royal Family, and during the rare public encounter, Beatrice and Eugenie were captured together on a London street. Professional lip reader Nicola Hickling claimed Beatrice, 37, reassured her younger sister “we’re in this together, don’t forget that”.
She additionally revealed that Beatrice warned Eugenie that “it’s going to get harder” and “we can’t do anything”. Meanwhile, Eugenie reportedly responded: “Everything is changing” with Beatrice acknowledging it’s a “really anxious time”.
Given the sisters’ infrequent joint public appearances, some royal observers speculated whether the encounter was orchestrated, reports MailOnline. One sceptical Reddit user commented: “‘PR trick to get public sympathy…This is staged,” with another concurring: “They 100 per cent showed up here after calling the paps to take pictures of them hugging.”
Epstein died by suicide in a New York prison in 2019 while facing trial on sex trafficking and conspiracy charges. Maxwell was handed a 20-year prison sentence in 2022 following her conviction for sex trafficking.
