I think there is absolutely no chance the Beatrice and Eugenie will be asked to give up their titles, which seems to be the common consensus.
The question is who will replace duties of the Princess Royal (age 60) when she retires. Will that duty fall naturally to Beatrice, and will it come with her own regal apartment in Kensington Palace?
I highly doubt the Princess Royal is going to 'retire' anytime soon, if she has the same stamina and health as her parents. In general, the Royal Family don't really 'retire', although they may gradually ramp down their engagements as they get older, but in the case of the Queen's children, that's not going to happen for many more years. The Duke of Edinburgh is just starting to ramp down slightly (so far) as he approach his 90th birthday this June, and I wouldn't be surprised if he continue to make appearances and work on his charities for quite few more years. The Queen, along with the Duke, certainly has very strong stamina.
