PRINCESS Beatrice has been spotted for the first time since her father Prince Andrew reluctantly forfeited his royal titles.

Beatrice was seen leaving Andrew’s home amid a Met probe into claims he recruited his protection officer to dig up dirt on his sex-abuse accuser.

The disgraced royal finally gave up his Duke of York title on Friday after being “forcibly pushed onto his sword” by King Charles.

To add to Andrew’s humiliation, cops are now probing claims he used one of his bodyguards for a smear campaign against Virginia Giuffre.

Beatrice was seen leaving Royal Lodge amid growing fury at her father being allowed to stay in the luxurious Windsor mansion.

Despite Charles pushing Andrew to give up his titles, the former Duke of York will still be able to live at the royal home.

The former Duke has a “cast-iron” tenancy agreement at the 30-room pad until 2078.

Questions have also been raised about how the disgraced royal is able to afford living in the 30-room pad given his financial situation.

Royal author Andrew Lownie said the Duke has spent £10 million renovating the luxurious 30-room pad.

The historian said Andrew would stay in his home “as long as he can afford to” because it is his “last status symbol” connecting him to the crown.

On Saturday, the Metropolitan Police confirmed it was “actively looking into the claims made” against Andrew.

It is claimed he got hold of Virginia’s date of birth and private social security number, before passing them to one of his protection officers.

According to the MoS, the former Duke of York then bragged to the late Queen’s deputy press secretary Ed Perkins about his covert snooping.

The alleged email was sent just hours before the infamous picture of Andrew with his hand around a 17-year-old Virginia’s waist went public.

There’s no suggestion that the officer completed Andrew’s request, and Virginia’s family say she did not have a criminal record.

It rounded off a devastating week for the disgraced royal, who was also forced to surrender his role as a member of the Order of the Garter.

The King reportedly reached “tipping point” with his brother over the sex abuse scandal and led frantic negotiations this week.

But the monarch faces growing calls to go one step further and strip his younger brother of his prince title.

Charles is understood to have consulted with his eldest son and other members of the Royal Family before giving Andrew his marching orders.

Andrew later confirmed the decision in a blunt statement through Buckingham Palace on Friday evening.

But things could get even worse for Andrew, with reports that William could go one step further when he becomes King.

It is understood that the future monarch will ban his humiliated uncle from his coronation and Christmas gatherings.

Insiders say William is not satisfied with the disgraced royal giving up his title and it is likely the “Andrew problem” will continue.

The Duke of York title was given to Andrew by the late Queen Elizabeth II on July 23, 1986, the day of his wedding to Sarah Ferguson.

But the Prince was “shocked” into giving up his titles after King Charles threatened to take further action, it is understood.

The King spelled out to his younger brother that he must jump or he’d be pushed – with “decisive further action” on the table.
