According to a source close to Princess Eugenie, she won't be turning her back on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. "It is completely untrue that she has cut him off," the insider told
The Sun. "She has seen him several times this year and is supportive. She is there for her father whenever he needs her."

In
photos obtained by
The Sun, Princess Eugenie was seen taking her daughter horseback riding with her father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, at Home Park, on the grounds of Windsor Castle. According to the outlet, the relatives also spent time together at Royal Lodge before the former Duke of York moves out.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his ex-wife,
Sarah Ferguson, were stripped of their titles and evicted from Royal Lodge due to their ties to
Jeffrey Epstein. "The Yorks are an extremely close-knit family. The disgrace of Sarah Ferguson has followed that of Andrew, who has become an international pariah," royal expert
Richard Fitzwilliams told
Daily Express. "
Princess Beatrice and
Princess Eugenie will find their parents'
predicament devastating."

While Princess Eugenie may be loyal to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, she won't allow him to interfere with her relationship with
King Charles III and The Firm. The 35-year-old and Princess Beatrice spent Christmas with the royal family at Sandringham instead of with their dad and Sarah Ferguson. "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.
