The pair have remained publicly cordial. They were both present at the private christening of Princess Beatrice’s daughter in December 2025, arriving quietly and departing without attending the reception.

Whether seen as a heartfelt plea or a misjudged gesture, the message from within palace circles appears unmistakable: reconciliation may not be possible — no matter how many cards are sent.
