The 29-year-old is not considered a full-time royal despite being tenth in line to the throne and being the niece of the heir to the British throne.

According to Express, her uncle was reportedly unwilling to let Eugenie or her sister Princess Beatrice have more of a royal profile.

The publication wrote that the princesses’ father, Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, believed his daughters should have a higher profile in the Royal Family (including more royal duties and contact with the public).

However, the Prince of Wales allegedly thought the monarchy should be focused on fewer people – namely, his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, his sons Prince William and Prince Harry, and their spouses, Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge and Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex).

However, Princess Eugenie receives no royal allowance from the privy purse due to her status as a non-working royal.

Instead, she makes her earnings as an associate director at the art gallery Hauser & Wirth.

“I’ve loved art since I was very little,” Princess Eugenie said of her job in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar.

“I knew I definitely wouldn’t be a painter, but I knew this was the industry for me. I love being able to share my passion for art with people,” said Eugenie – who married Jack Brooksbank at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle last year.
