Princess Eugenie has ‘cut off all contact’ with shamed father Andrew over Epstein scandal

Princess Eugenie has reportedly ‘completely cut off’ all contact with her father Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor amid ongoing controversy over his links to paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, with sources saying there is ‘no contact at all’

Princess Eugenie has allegedly severed all ties with Andrew over his links to paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who was divested of his Royal titles in October last year, is reportedly “devastated” by his youngest daughter’s estrangement.

It’s believed that Princess Eugenie, 35, refuses to communicate with her father and did not visit him with her own family at Christmas. A source disclosed to the Mail on Sunday: “There is no contact at all, nothing. It’s Brooklyn Beckham level – she has completely cut him off.”

This follows the former Duke of York being overlooked at Christmas by daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who joined the royals in Sandringham.

The source revealed: “Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family.

“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.”

The shamed former Duke of York was compelled to relinquish the lease on his 30-room Royal Lodge mansion back in October when he was dramatically stripped of all his Royal titles. It’s understood that Andrew’s possessions, including valuable art, are now stored in a South London warehouse under 24-hour guard.

In recent days, a removal lorry has been seen at Royal Lodge following reports that Andrew was allegedly given until next weekend to vacate the property. While Buckingham Palace hasn’t provided official confirmation, it’s understood that Marsh Farm in Norfolk is the residence where the former prince will be relocating.

Both Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, who has resided with her former spouse at Royal Lodge since 2008, must leave the property before the month’s end, with sources suggesting Fergie is “ready to spread her wings”. An insider revealed to Hello! Magazine: “Andrew and Sarah have to move out by January 25. She has stood by him all these years but is now ready to spread her wings.

“She won’t be moving in with him to the new house on the Sandringham Estate. She won’t be moving into Beatrice’s Cotswolds home though.

“Eugenie’s home in Portugal is a contender while she finds somewhere.”

On Wednesday, massive removal trucks were observed at the Windsor estate, remaining for several hours before leaving.

Simultaneously, contractors were seen at Andrew’s prospective new residence on the Sandringham estate, making preparations for his arrival.

A substantial barrier has been installed around the property to provide the prospective new occupant with enhanced privacy, alongside security illumination.

As Marsh Farm undergoes these refurbishments, it’s anticipated that Andrew will relocate to interim accommodation before settling at the Norfolk estate around Easter. This follows the release of several unsettling images of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor in the Epstein file dump, which was made public just before Christmas.

Andrew has strongly denied any wrongdoing, and being featured or mentioned in the files does not imply criminal misconduct.

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) had a deadline of December 19, 2025 to disclose the majority of the Epstein files – documents pertaining to its management of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and his then-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell. However, only a small portion of the total number were unveiled, with many heavily redacted.
