Princess Beatrice’s kids have a title - Princess Eugenie’s don’t

In the wake of their father having his royal titles removed, the titles of Princess Beatrice and Eugenie have been heavily discussed amongst royal fans – and so have the titles of their own children.

For those in need of a quick recap, earlier this week, the disgraced royal, formally known as Prince Andrew was stripped of his ‘Style, Titles and Honours’ by his elder brother, King Charles III.

“His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement yesterday (30 October).

“Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.”

This comes after the 65-year-old’s relationship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein came to light in recent years, along with the release of a new memoir written by Virginia Giuffre, who first alleged in 2019 that she’d been forced to have sex with Andrew on three separate occasions when she was just a minor after being trafficked by Epstein.

Giuffre died from suicide earlier this year.

Though Andrew has strongly denied the accusations made against him, he stepped down from royal duties in 2019 before the King stripped him of his titles this week.

Now Andrew has been forced to move out of the Royal Lodge, where he and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson – who has also lost her Duchess of York title – resided for over two decades, many have been questioning the status of the couple’s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie.

While it’s believed that Beatrice and Eugenie will retain their royal titles, it has emerged that Beatrice’s children have titles of their own – but Eugenie’s do not.

Why do Princess Eugenie’s children not have royal titles?

Beatrice is the mum to two daughters with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, an English-born Italian nobleman – Sienna, four and Athena, nine months.

She is also the stepmum to Mozzi’s son from a previous relationship, Christopher Woolf.

Eugenie, on the other hand, is the mum to two sons with husband Jack Brooksbank – August, four, and Ernest, two.

While both Princesses have retained their royal statuses, they weren’t granted royal titles by the late Queen Elizabeth when they each married their husbands – a practice common among senior royal couples, such as Prince William and Kate Middleton, who became the Prince and Princess of Wales, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who became the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

This means that Beatrice and Eugenie’s children weren’t granted royal titles when they were born.

Princess Beatrice’s children are granted a title because of their father

However, because Beatrice married Mozzi – who is an Italian count – his children automatically inherit a count or countess title, meaning Sienna and Athena both have titles.

Mozzi’s father, Count Allessandro Mapelli Mozzi, previously explained to the Daily Mail: “Edoardo is the only male descendant taking the family into the next generation.

“He is a count, his wife will be a countess automatically, and any of their children will be counts or nobile donna.”
