Princess Eugenie has resigned from her position at an anti-slavery charity amid the fallout from Epstein’s emails.
The daughter of former Prince Andrew (now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor) and Sarah Ferguson served as patron of Anti-Slavery International for seven years.
On Sunday, the 35-year-old princess stepped down from her role at the world’s oldest human rights organization, the Observer reported.
In a statement to the magazine, the charity said: “After seven years, our sponsorship of Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie of York has come to an end.
“We are deeply grateful for the Princess’ support of Anti-Slavery International. We wish her continued efforts to end slavery forever and bring freedom to all.”
Representatives from Anti-Slavery International did not respond to Page Six requests for comment.
The resignation comes weeks after Eugenie’s father was arrested on his 66th birthday last month for his ties to the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The disgraced royal family was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in office for allegedly passing confidential trade documents to Epstein.
He also allegedly had a sexual relationship with Virginia Giuffre, who was trafficked by Epstein and his partner Ghislaine Maxwell. Andrew vehemently denied the claims, but paid Giuffre millions of dollars.
Released emails revealed that Andrew continued to communicate with Epstein years after he said he would cut ties with him.
Mr. Ferguson also had close ties to Mr. Epstein.
New emails reveal that she wrote multiple times that they should get married and called him “the brother I’ve always wanted.”
Last year, Andrew and Ferguson, also 66, were stripped of their royal titles and forced to leave their longtime home at Royal Lodge.
Eugenie and her sister Princess Beatrice, 37, have reportedly been told by the royal family that they will not be able to attend Royal Ascot or the Royal Parade in June.
The brothers are said to have been “blindsided” by the decision.
The sisters were reportedly “devastated” by the fallout from their parents’ alleged actions.
