Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie have pulled out of spending Christmas with King Charles and the Royal Family at Sandringham Estate amid Prince Andrew’s “Chinese Spy” scandal, according to new claims in the Mail.
The Princesses of York are believed to be spending the day with their respective husbands’ families, amid the current controversy surrounding Prince Andrew.
It follows Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s voluntary decision to give the annual celebrations, including the Christmas day walk to St Mary Magdalene Church in Norfolk, a miss.
Eugenie and Beatrice reportedly made the decision having not had the chance to spend Christmas with their in-laws for several years.

Beatrice is married to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, and the couple share a three-year-old daughter named Sienna.
Meanwhile, Princess Eugenie is married to Jack Brooksbank, and the couple share two sons, August, three, and Ernest, one.
It is believed their parents, the Duke and Duchess of York, are likely to remain at Royal Lodge.
