It is widely known that Meghan Markle isn’t in Sarah ‘Fergie’ Ferguson’s best books but is contrastingly close to her daughter Eugenie. However, there is one member of the York family that seems to be stuck in the middle, reports the Daily Mail.
Princess Beatrice is private toa fault and, unlike her mother or younger sister, has never commented on the relationship between her cousin Prince Harry and the Suits actress.
The royal has various mutual friends with Meghan, including her best friend Misha Nonoo, and the two royals are believed to have attended many of the same Hollywood parties and royal ceremonies in the last few years.
However, she’s also extremely close with her father Prince Andrew, who the Sussexes have, on more than one occasion, publicly shamed. Princess Beatrice was allegedly “devastated” when she heard of Virginia Giuffre’s sexual assault accusations against the Duke of York.
After the Montecito royals’ criticism of Prince Andrew and their public attacks on the royal family, it is uncertain as to whether Meghan and Beatrice’s relationship has remained unscathed.

The royal cousins are allegedly part of a WhatsApp group where they text each other regarding family events and news.
While it is assumed that Beatrice and Harry keep up communication on the group chat, Meghan’s relationship with the York royal is not known.
However, she’s never referenced Princess Beatrice - who keeps a lower public profile in comparison to her sister.

Despite the apparent low-profile relationship between Beatrice and Meghan, there was a subtle hint that the two were closer than they seem in Harry and Meghan’s bombshell Netflix docuseries.
In Harry & Meghan, a photograph shows Prince Harry and Meghan having a cup of tea in the late Queen Elizabeth’s wendy house.
In 2010, the Queen gave custodianship of the wendy house to her granddaughter Princess Beatrice, who supervised a year-long renovation and invited journalist Andrew Marr inside for his BBC series The Diamond Queen in 2012, which marked the first time cameras were allowed inside the house.
Beatrice seems to be one of the few royals still in contact with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and is thought to have given them permission to bring cameras inside the house.
However, it is unclear whether she was fully aware of what the couple were filming.
