Princess Eugenie's short-term contract and "influential" role at King Charles's foundation has quietly come to an end.
The younger daughter of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson was appointed as a mentor to the "35 under 35" initiative in May 2025, which supports young leaders across the fashion, architecture, and environmental activism industries.
However, HELLO! understands that the network was only ever limited to the Foundation's anniversary year, meaning the network came to an end naturally.
The Daily Mail's Ephraim Hardcastle initially reported that the position has "barely lasted a year," and she has "quietly been dropped". The insider added that the "disgrace" surrounding her father, Andrew, cast a "deep shadow" over her role.
King Charles's niece, who is pregnant with her third child, previously praised the Foundation's "outstanding work in areas the King is passionate about".
She is still understood to be on good terms with her uncle, who said he was "delighted" in her official pregnancy announcement from Buckingham Palace earlier this month.
Eugenie, 36, is not a working royal and has a full-time role at gallery Hauser & Wirth. However, she dedicates time to charities and organisations close to her heart.
Eugenie's work for the King's Foundation
Last November, Princess Eugenie made a major outing in her role for the Foundation, founded in 1990 by the then-Prince Charles, taking part in a mentoring session in London.
She gave an introductory speech and told mentees about how art had influenced her career.
She said at the time: "It was fantastic to spend more time with the 35 under 35, who are such an incredible group of talented young people.
"I have enjoyed getting to know them better and hearing about their work and aspirations, and look forward to supporting their journeys into the future.
"My career has been shaped by a passion for the arts, so it's a pleasure to be working with The King's Foundation to support this inspirational group of artists and creatives."
In March, it was also revealed that Eugenie had stepped down from the Anti-Slavery International following her father's arrest the previous month.
The princess's profile was removed from the charity's website, which previously mentioned her work "across the board with leaders in the fight against modern slavery".
Family celebrations!
This weekend is set to be extra special for Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, as they will be celebrating their younger son, Ernest's, birthday.
Ernest will turn three – his last big milestone before becoming a big brother. Eugenie and Jack also share an older son, August, five.
Eugenie and Jack have been spending a lot of time in London in recent weeks, where they have their Ivy Cottage residence at Kensington Palace.
The couple, who split their time in Portugal, were seen enjoying an evening out at Oswald's in Mayfair, ahead of welcoming baby number three this summer.
