A friend of Princess Beatrice claims she's at a loss over how to move forward after more information emerged about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson's friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. "She can't eat, she can't sleep. She is so stressed out," the anonymous pal told

The Royalist Substack.

Edoardo Mappelli Mozzi — Princess Beatrice's husband — is reportedly "doing his best to support her" during this difficult time. "But he has to keep going," the friend said.

Princess Eugenie is reportedly humiliated by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson's connection to Jeffrey Epstein, especially because she's the patron of an anti-slavery charity. "It's the understatement of the year to say it's a very difficult situation," a friend told the outlet. "Of course, they feel let down by the new revelations. Eugenie's work with the Anti-Slavery Collective is super important to her and she feels that she is going to have to make a choice."

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie publicly distanced themselves from Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson by spending Christmas with
King Charles III and the royal family at Sandringham. "They live and die by the monarchy, so this didn't surprise me at all. Andrew and Sarah would have 1,000 percent supported it," a source told
People.

King Charles III stripped Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson of their titles and evicted them from Royal Lodge over their past connections with Jeffrey Epstein. Luckily, His Majesty is reportedly keeping Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie within The Firm. "I think that Charles feels quite responsible for these two girls, because it's been a hideous time for them. Really hideous," expert
Ingrid Seward told
The Sun. "I know they've got supportive husbands, but they've both got young children, and I think it's been very, very difficult."
