Beatrice and Eugenie's 'strained' relationship with disgraced parents

They were once the closest of families, with Sarah Ferguson comparing their tight bond to a table.
“A table goes best with four legs,” the former Duchess of York told HELLO! in 2017. “A table can’t stand on three legs, so you have the Duke and I, and the two girls. We’re a family unit and we lead by example.
“We support each other emotionally and we support each other health-wise. At least every two weeks we sit down together and communicate, the four of us.”
Today, that once-sturdy relationship is looking decidedly wobbly, after Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie found themselves dragged into the scandal surrounding their parents’ friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
