- Outward Bound confirmed Princess Beatrice’s appointment as deputy patron this week, with the charity’s chief executive welcoming a new chapter of support for young people.
- The Daily Mirror and Daily Star, citing Daily Mail journalist Richard Eden, report an alleged ‘secret deal’ between King Charles and Andrew intended to protect Beatrice and Eugenie’s roles.
- Current coverage says Beatrice and Eugenie will retain their titles and have been cleared to take on new or expanded royal duties.
- Reporting states Andrew has lost his right to remain at Royal Lodge, is set to relocate to the Sandringham estate, and no longer retains his princely dignity.
- Separate tabloid reports say Sarah Ferguson must secure her own housing and work, may drop use of “Duchess of York,” and is considering a move to Portugal, though these claims lack official confirmation.
