The Princesses will make alternative plans on Easter Sunday this year while the rest of the Royal family gather at St George’s Chapel.

Andrew has not been invited to the Easter service, the Times reports.

Beatrice and Eugenie have been named in the recently released Epstein files, alongside their mother Sarah Ferguson.

Being in the files is not evidence of wrongdoing, but Ms Ferguson has come under fire for messages suggesting she took the Princesses to see Epstein just days after he was released from prison for sex crimes in 2009.

Ms Ferguson has lost several titles in recent months, including the freedom of the city of York and several patronages.

It is not known where she is living currently. Andrew has been living at Sandringham since leaving Royal Lodge in February after having his titles stripped.

The Princesses have retained their titles, though Princess Eugenie stepped down as patron of charity Anti-Slavery International.

The sisters were also invited to spend Christmas with the rest of the royals and were seen walking to church with relatives.
