Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie attended their cousin Peter Phillips’ royal wedding amid their father Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s ongoing scandal.
Beatrice, 37, was pictured arriving at the All Saints’ Church in Kemble, England, alongside husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, who gallantly held an umbrella over her head. The pair walked into the church ahead of Eugenie, 36, and her husband, Jack Brooksbank.
Beatrice opted for green, floral frock with a beige fascinator for the occasion, while Eugenie, who is currently pregnant with her third baby, donned a navy coatdress with a coordinating headpiece.
The duo stepped out in support of Princess Anne’s son, 48-year-old Peter, upon his nuptials to NHS nurse Harriet Sperling. (Peter was previously married to Autumn Kelly, with whom he shares two daughters.)
Peter’s royal wedding marks a rare public outing for the York princesses, who took a step back from the spotlight amid Andrew’s arrest scandal.
Andrew, 66, was stripped of his royal titles in October 2025, months before being arrested for alleged misconduct in public office. (Andrew, who was released from jail within hours, has not addressed the accusations.)

“I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office,” Andrew’s brother King Charles III said in a February statement. “What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and cooperation.”
The king, 77, continued, “Let me state clearly: the law must take its course. As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all.”
Beatrice and Eugenie, whom Andrew shares with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, have not publicly addressed their father’s legal drama.
“They aren’t as worried about Andrew being arrested and going to jail, but they are still horrified that he’s involved in this and worry there could be more to come,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in March of the princesses’ reaction to the scandal. “It’s devastating for them and in London it’s all people are talking about.”
Per the insider, Beatrice and Eugenie “had to change their upcoming public-facing plans and future plans” amid the scandal.
“They are not actually planning on doing any public events in the near future because of everything surrounding their parents because they know that will be the focus,” the source added.
