Princess Eugenie Steps Down From Anti-Slavery Charity

Princess Eugenie ends her seven-year patronage at Anti-Slavery International amid scrutiny following her father’s arrest and a Charity Commission review of her separate nonprofit.

  • On Sunday, HRH Princess Eugenie of York stepped down as patron of Anti‑Slavery International, and the charity removed her profile, according to The Observer.
  • Following the release of Epstein files and her father’s arrest, scrutiny intensified as no reason was given by the charity; the UK Charity Commission is assessing spending concerns at The Anti‑Slavery Collective earlier this month.
  • The Anti‑Slavery Collective, which Eugenie co‑founded in 2017, has faced questions about its accounts after raising �1.5m with �1.3m carried forward, but donations dropped to �48,000 and it spent �191,537 on salaries in the year ending April 5, 2025.
  • Princess Eugenie has not publicly responded to the files or allegations, and family sources say she and Princess Beatrice feel blindsided, devastated, and barred from Royal Ascot this year.
  • The DOJ’s January 30 release of more than three million pages intensified scrutiny, while Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor was arrested on February 19 and King Charles III urged that the law must take its course.
