The British royal family is full of drama. Every day it seems like there's a new report about different members of the family who don't get along or who are in the middle of a feud we didn't know about. And in the last few months, ever since their father Andrew was arrested, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie have been in the middle of a lot of speculation.
Now, it's transpired that Queen Camilla once “totally cut” off the princesses over fears that they were feeding private information to Harry and Meghan, according to RadarOnline. “Eugenie and Beatrice are very close to Harry, and both stayed loyal to him and Meghan through thick and thin,” said a source. “Now the chickens have come home to roost.”

The decision reportedly left the two “very upset."
“But that's not holding water with Camilla or her stepson, future king William, who've formed an unlikely alliance to cut Harry and Meghan off at the knees,” the source continued. “Both believe Harry and Meghan wouldn't know as much as they do if it weren't for Beatrice and Eugenie, even if the girls leaked secret details by accident!”
Harry and Meghan spent years without any close communication with the rest of the royal family, ever since they moved to California in 2020. The couple gave an interview to Oprah afterwards, and Harry released a memoir, called Spare, where he was critical of his family.
And that's reportedly why Eugenie and Beatrice being on good terms with them was seen as “a black mark against them,” according to the source.
“They're no longer trusted and have been branded as backstabbers and traitors,” the source shared.
However, other reports indicate that might all change after Princess Beatrice was sighted having lunch with broadcaster Piers Morgan, who has previously been very critical of Prince Harry's wife Meghan Markle, in what some consider a sign of what the relationship between the Sussexes and Andrew's daughters is.
Harry just visited the UK alongside Markle and their kids, and met with King Charles and Queen Camilla.
A royal observer told RadarOnline: “Photographs of Princess Beatrice with Piers Morgan were always likely to generate intense interest, given Morgan’s long-running public criticism of Prince Harry and Meghan. It’s being interpreted as a clear sign neither Beatrice nor her sister, Princess Eugenie, cares about the Sussexes’ feelings.
“People are saying it, in fact, signifies Harry and Meghan have been frozen out of his cousins’ lives as there is no way one of them would dine with Piers if they cared about them or were still in touch with them.”
Morgan has been one of Harry and Meghan's most staunchest critics, and has continued to be very hard on them even after they stepped back as senior royals in 2020.
