Why Princess Eugenie suddenly stepped down from a major anti-slavery role
Princess Eugenie has stepped down from her role as patron of Anti-Slavery International, ending a seven-year association with one of the world's oldest human rights organisations. The move comes as renewed scrutiny surrounding her father, Prince Andrew, once again puts the York family in the global spotlight. Although there are no allegations against Eugenie herself, the timing of the decision has sparked questions about whether the ongoing controversy linked to Jeffrey Epstein is indirectly influencing royal ties with charities. Eugenie had been a visible supporter of anti-slavery efforts and also co-founded The Anti-Slavery Collective to raise awareness about human trafficking and forced labour. In this video, we break down why Princess Eugenie stepped away from the charity, what Anti-Slavery International has said about the decision, and how the continuing attention around Prince Andrew may be shaping public perception of the royal family.
