Princess Eugenie ‘cuts off all contact with dad Andrew’ over Epstein scandal
Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is facing continued fallout over his association with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein – with his own daughter now reportedly cutting him off.
Princess Eugenie, 35, is allegedly not speaking with her father after he refused to apologise to Epstein’s victims.
A source close to the royals told the Mail: ‘There is no contact at all, nothing. It’s Brooklyn Beckham level – she has completely cut him off.
‘Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family,’ the source said.
‘They aren’t exactly in regular and close contact at the moment, but Eugenie isn’t trying to walk that line. She’s not speaking to him.’

Princess Beatrice, on the other hand, had her father attend her daughter’s christening last month.
The reported familial split comes as Andrew faces continued fury for his links to Epstein, and as he prepares to move out of the Royal Lodge for good.
Last week, a white van arrived at the Royal Lodge, where he has lived for 22 years. In the next few weeks, the ex-prince is expected to move into a temporary property on the King’s Sandringham estate in Norfolk.
The former Duke of York was banished from the Royal Family and was handed an eviction notice from the Royal Lodge last year.
This was due to his controversial friendship with convicted paedophile Epstein and allegations that he sexually assaulted Virginia Giuffre when she was a teenager.
He has repeatedly denied these allegations. Andrew is set to stay at the temporary property until renovations at his anticipated new home, Marsh Farm, finish by Easter.
Andrew reportedly wanted to live at Wood Farm on Sandringham, which is a five-bed cottage near the stables and pheasant shooting grounds.
However, there were concerns that he would be living ‘too close’ to the rest of the family.
The other day, Andrew was seen talking to dog walkers after they blocked the path of his car.
The disgraced royal was seen interacting with the pet owner while driving his Range Rover down the Long Walk on the Windsor estate.
Another picture showed Andrew beaming behind the wheel of his black SUV.
