Getting Away With It (All Messed Up)

Beatrice and Eugenie to miss Easter church service

Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie will not join their fellow royals for their usual Easter Sunday church service, the Press Association (PA) understands.

The decision, agreed with the King, comes after their father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office last month.

He was taken into police custody and later released under investigation on suspicion that he shared sensitive information with late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein when he was UK trade envoy.

The former prince has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein.

Beatrice and Eugenie – who have been named among the millions of Epstein-related documents released by the US justice department – have made alternative plans for this Sunday, according to PA.

The King, Queen and other members of the family – including the Prince and Princess of Wales – are set to attend an Easter Matins church service at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle.

It is understood Beatrice and Eugenie will be at future family events.

The Epstein files

Beatrice's and Eugenie's names appear in the files in emails between Epstein and their mother, Sarah Ferguson.

Being mentioned in the files is not evidence of wrongdoing.

One email exchange suggested Ms Ferguson took her daughters to see Epstein in the US just days after he was released from prison for child sex crimes in 2009. They were 19 and 20 at the time.

Like her ex-husband, Ms Ferguson has lost several titles in recent months as more revelations about Epstein and his past associates have emerged. Last week, she lost the freedom of the city of York.

Beatrice and Eugenie have kept their princess titles.

Their father has been living at Sandringham since leaving Royal Lodge in Windsor at the start of February.
