Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie Bid Farewell to Beloved Grandmother, the Queen, at State Funeral

Princess Beatrice and her sister, Princess Eugenie, were overcome with grief as they attended the state funeral of their beloved grandmother, the Queen, on Monday.

The emotional siblings, accompanied by their respective husbands, Edoardo and Jack Brooksbank, were seen visibly moved throughout the service held at Westminster Abbey.

However, royal enthusiasts were left puzzled when both Beatrice and Eugenie appeared to leave the funeral early.

Seated in the second row of the Abbey, on opposite sides of the aisle, the sisters were observed rising from their seats and exiting the Abbey together as the service drew to a close.

Viewers took to Twitter to express their surprise, questioning the sudden departure of the princesses.

“Where did Beatrice and Eugenie just go?”

one person asked, while another remarked, “What happened with Beatrice and Eugenie?

They left their seats and held up the bearer party.

Even Sarah was going to get up and leave.

How strange!”

However, it should be noted that both Beatrice and Eugenie were later seen with the rest of the royal family outside the Abbey after the funeral concluded.

This incident follows a joint statement issued by the sisters over the weekend, paying tribute to their late grandmother.

Beatrice, visibly distraught, was seen shedding tears as she received support from her husband, Edoardo Moppelli Mozzi, and mother, Sarah Ferguson, during this difficult time.

As they walked away from the cameras, Beatrice's husband offered a comforting arm around her.

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were joined by their respective partners, Edoardo and Jack Brooksbank, at the funeral service.

A heartwarming moment occurred when the sisters turned to locate their mother before entering Westminster Abbey.

Encouraging Sarah to join them, they spent a few moments waiting for her as they made their way to their seats.

However, Sarah good-naturedly declined and gestured that she would trail behind her grandchildren, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount VII.

Prior to the funeral, Beatrice and Eugenie released a touching tribute in honor of their grandmother.

“Our dearest Granny, we've struggled to find the words since you left us,” their heartfelt message read.

“There have been tears and laughter, silences and chatter, hugs and loneliness, and a collective loss for you, our beloved Queen and our beloved Granny.

We, like many, thought you would be with us forever.

And we miss you deeply.

You were our matriarch, our guide, our loving hand on our backs as you led us through this world.

You taught us so much, and we will forever cherish those lessons and memories.

So now, dear Granny, all we want to say is thank you.

Thank you for making us laugh, for including us, for picking heather and raspberries, for watching soldiers march, for sharing tea, for providing comfort and joy.

Your impact on our family and countless others around the world is immeasurable.

The world mourns your loss, and the tributes would undoubtedly bring a smile to your face.

They are all true reflections of the remarkable leader you were.”

The heartfelt message concluded with, “We are overjoyed that you are reunited with Grandpa.

Farewell, dear Granny.

It has been the greatest honor of our lives to be your granddaughters, and we are immensely proud of you.”

As Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie bid their final farewell to their grandmother, the Queen, at her state funeral, their emotions were laid bare for all to see.

Despite their early departure from the service, the sisters stood united with the rest of the royal family outside Westminster Abbey.

The loss of their beloved grandmother has undoubtedly left a void in their lives, but their joint tribute serves as a testament to the profound impact she had on them and the world.
