According to PR consultant
Kayley Cornelius, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie should keep a low profile. "Public sympathy for Eugenie and Beatrice will be at an all-time high," she told
Daily Express. "The smartest approach is visibility without overexposure. Turning up, showing consistency and quietly getting on with meaningful work will speak far louder than any formal statement ever could."

If Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie concentrate on their philanthropic efforts and what they can do for The Firm, the public will likely have a positive view of them. "With King Charles III willing to take the York sisters under his wing, a great next move would be for them to begin engaging in royal duties," Kayley Cornelius said. "Carefully chosen charity work and low-key appearances could really benefit them, particularly if the causes feel authentic and future focused."

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson were stripped of their titles and evicted from Royal Lodge over their connection to Jeffrey Epstein. After the U.S. Department of Justice released more files related to the late financier, the bond between the former couple and Epstein became evident. "I have never been more touched by a friend's kindness than your compliment to me in front of my girls [Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie]. Thank you, Jeffrey, for being the brother I have always wished for," Sarah wrote in an August 3, 2009, email.

The files also showed photographs of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor hovering over an anonymous female. "These photos of Andrew with an unidentified woman in the files linked to the deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, coming after a recently released photograph of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor lying across four women at Sandringham, will bring more embarrassment for the royal family," royal expert
Richard Fitzwilliams Daily Express. "We don't know when they were taken or the context and he has denied all wrongdoing, but they will seem extremely d******, especially to a public, where, in the latest YouGov poll, he [Andrew] has only 6% support."

Despite the scandal, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are reportedly backing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson. "The Yorks are just about holding it together as a family, but this has put new strains on their relationships," an insider told
Daily Mail. "The last I heard, the daughters were still supporting both parents behind the scenes."
