Princess Beatrice is reportedly furious after yet another royal scandal has further delayed her wedding plans and date announcement.

As controversy over her father Prince Andrew and his links to paedophile Jeffrey Epstein resurfaces, the Princess has again delayed announcing her wedding date - having previously delayed the news when Harry and Meghan chose to step down.

Despite the delays palace insiders suggest Beatrice and fiance, Edo Mapelli, 36, will get married on Friday, May 29, and have their reception at Buckingham Palace.

The ceremony venue is not yet confirmed, however.

A source told the Sun: "The decision has been delayed repeatedly because of all the issues, but finally they have something that seems to work — and barring any problems that should be when it goes ahead.

"The Queen has asked everyone to come together to put on a united front.

"The press officers of all the palaces hope to portray the Beatrice wedding as the big event that brings the family back together again.

"Aides know this will be a tough job, but it's all they can do not just to save the wedding, but potentially the monarchy's reputation."

Andrew and the FBI

Four of Jeffrey Epstein accusers have begged Prince Andrew to come forward and talk to the FBI for his "daughters and their children".

The women urged the 59-year-old "be on the right side of history" after his lack of co-operation in the ongoing investigation into Epstein's inner circle, shared the Mail on Sunday.

"Prince Andrew, the world is watching," the letter from an accuser named Kiki begins.

"Please help the US authorities with anything you may have observed in your time spent with Jeffrey Epstein," plead the four, saying his "privileged life" gives him the power to "influence and create positive change".

"Do it for the victims who have lived a life of suffering, shame and humiliation. You can make things better for us and for future generations with your co-operation," they wrote.

"Do it for your daughters and their children. Do it for your family, so that they may be proud that you have taken the decent and moral path."

"You have a chance to be on the right side of history," they wrote in the letter obtained by the Mail on Sunday.

"The world is watching. Please look past your fear and help those who could not help themselves."

Prince Andrew is accused of having sex with Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre and has been removed from royal duties following his attempts to justify his links to the paedophile.

Both Prince Andrew and Buckingham Palace have always denied any claims of accusations against him.
