Prince Charles forced to intervene in cash row about Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice - Mirror Online

Prince Andrew has always fought for his daughters' royal status, but Prince Charles had to get involved after Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie's security costs caused a row.

Prince Charles was forced to intervene in a debate about funding for Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie's security causes a row behind palace walls, a royal expert has claimed.

Speaking on Channel 5 documentary Beatrice and Eugenie: Pampered Princesses?, royal expert Richard Kay said: "She was sort of flitting from country to country as most middle-class young people do who take gap years.

Charles reportedly stepped in to control the spending, with author Angela Levin telling the programme he suggested Eugenie and Beatrice didn't need costly security as it's unlikely they will ever become working royals.
