Beatrice and Eugenie to Miss Easter Service After Scrutiny, Invited to Royal Ascot

The invitation signals private support during a period of reputational risk tied to their parents.

Overview

  • The sisters agreed with King Charles to skip Sunday’s Easter service at Windsor and made alternative plans, with palace aides saying they remain welcome at future family occasions.
  • Media outlets report the King has invited them to Royal Ascot in June, a high-profile racing event often read as a sign of closeness to the royal circle.
  • Royal author Robert Jobson urged them to steer clear of headline events like Ascot, arguing their presence would draw focus as coverage of their parents continues.
  • Princess Eugenie’s Anti-Slavery Collective posted for the first time since January, sharing a Sky News interview on how counterfeit goods can be linked to forced labor.
  • The latest attention follows U.S. document releases tied to Jeffrey Epstein and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s February 19 arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office, with the sisters named in files without allegations of wrongdoing and the police inquiry ongoing.
