Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are still deciding how to spend Christmas, according to a source quoted by Heat World.
The sisters are reportedly likely to see their father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, over the holidays. However, the source claimed that family tensions could make the visit awkward and that both sisters are worried about the festive season.
It remains unclear whether Andrew will be invited to the royal family’s Christmas gathering at Sandringham.
The source also said Eugenie may spend the entire holiday season in Portugal with her family to avoid the tensions. However, she reportedly wants to maintain good relationships with King Charles, Prince William and Kate Middleton.
According to the insider, turning down a royal Christmas invitation could be seen as an insult. It has not been confirmed whether Beatrice, Eugenie or their families will receive invitations.
Their mother, Sarah Ferguson, could make the decision more difficult. The source claimed Sarah would probably not be invited, even if her daughters were.
The insider suggested Sarah would feel hurt if Beatrice and Eugenie spent Christmas with the royals without her. They also claimed she may be unwilling to accept the situation or recognise her own role in the family’s difficulties.
For now, the sisters’ Christmas plans remain undecided, according to the report.
