Whilst Princess Kate is understood to be considering making a surprise appearance on the Buckingham Palace balcony this year, it remains unclear whether she will attend the main ceremony on June 15 at all.
However, royal sources said other members of the firm are expected to attend the main event but the attendance would mirror that of last year, when only working members of the Royal Family were present.
That means the princesses of York are unlikely to make an appearance on the balcony this year – as this is typically restriction to just senior working royals.
It comes after a royal expert claimed Sarah Ferguson’s daughters are being kept at “arm’s length” by Kensington Palace after getting closer to Prince Harry and what the Palace has allegedly described as the “dark side”.
Royal author Tom Quinn told the Mirror: “As his two cousins pivot towards his exiled brother, and with his wife and father incapacitated by illness, William feels increasingly isolated and in the closed hothouse atmosphere of Kensington Palace and Windsor he is bound to feel increasingly paranoid.
“For William it’s a question of loyalty – as Beatrice and Eugenie have got closer to Harry William has decided to keep them very much at arm’s length. The two sisters are known to be close to William’s brother, Harry, with the Duke of Sussex thinking his cousins can ‘sympathise’ with him the most.”
Mr Quinn alleged that this has created “serious concern” in the Wales’s household.
He said: “Beatrice and Eugenie are moving across to what one Kensington Palace official described as ‘the dark side’.”
