PRINCESS Eugenie is said to have severed all contact with Andrew over the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
The Epstein scandal has eclipsed the monarchy’s charity work and tarnished the name of the royal family on a global stage, and made this father-daughter relationship a very hard one to maintain.
At Christmas the former Duke of York – who is alleged to have attended events where abuse took place – was snubbed by daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie who joined the royals in Sandringham.
Stripped of his royal titles over his connection to the paedophile financier in October, the former prince is said to be devastated over the estrangement from his youngest daughter.
The Mail on Sunday reported: “‘There is no contact at all, nothing. It’s Brooklyn Beckham level – she has completely cut him off.
“‘Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family.
“They aren’t exactly in regular and close contact at the moment, but Eugenie isn’t trying to walk that line. She’s not speaking to him” a source told The Mail On Sunday.
It is understood Eugenie, 35, refuses to speak to him and did not visit him with her own family at Christmas.
The Anti-Slavery Collective is a charity Eugenie founded to help counter sex trafficking.
So, understandably the princess is not happy about her father’s refusal to apologise to Epstein’s victims.
However, her older sister Beatrice, 37, is trying to retain a relationship with her father despite his sins.
But, it is proving difficult to do so while maintaining her reputation in the Royal Family.
Last month Beatrice invited Andrew to the christening of her 11-month-old daughter Athena in London, but he did not attend the celebrations held in a pub afterwards.
It is not known whether Beatrice spoke to her father at the christening of her niece.
This news comes just weeks after a batch of files released in the US included unproven claims Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell attended events in which abuse took place.
One alleged victim said they were tied to a table and tortured with electrical shocks by Maxwell, while Andrew and other men watched on.
Andrew has always strongly denied any allegations of misconduct made against him.
The 35-year-old claimed they were drugged and driven by their father to an abuse ring in Surrey in the mid-1990s, when aged between six and eight.
Surrey Police said it had no record of the claims being reported to them
A spokesman added: “We are therefore engaging with relevant agencies to obtain access to the redacted information.”
US lawmakers said up to a million new documents are set for release in the coming weeks.
The King stepped in just two months ago to remove Andy’s Prince and Duke of York titles and ease him out of Royal Lodge to live in exile on his Sandringham estate.
Palace sources say the former working royal is now a private individual.
But one royal insider said: “It’s not going away.”
Andrew was evicted from Royal Lodge on the Windsor Estate in October when he was stripped of his prince and duke titles.
Initially, he will stay in an even smaller property at Sandringham until Easter when the work on Marsh Farm is due to be completed, Palace insiders say.
