This has left senior royals with no choice but to try and find him a role that would keep him away from the public. Continue reading and we’ll tell you the rest of the story.
Royal Family News – Despite Knighthood, Andrew Gets Shut Out of Garter Ceremony
These comments come after Andrew was recently axed from his role in the Order of the Garter procession held Monday at Windsor Castle. Despite being stripped of his military titles and Royal patronages earlier this year following sexual assault allegations leveled at him by Virginia Guiffre, the Duke of York still holds a Garter knighthood as this was reportedly a gift from the Queen herself.
Andrew settled the lawsuit against him in February dishing out, according to Time, over $15 million to his accuser, a sum which the Queen herself helped him cover. Notably, Andrew maintained his innocence throughout despite settling.
Royal Family News – ‘Quite Extraordinary’ Duke ‘Sill Believes he Has a Shot’
Fitzwilliams says that, as it concerns Prince Andrew, “it doesn’t seem that any message gets through to him.” He went on to add that pools would show him, were he to look, that he has no support from the public.
Despite his claims of innocence, Fitzwilliams said that the duke should know “it is the court of public opinion and there’s also simply what you can’t escape from” adding that the photograph with Andrew, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Guiffre has still not been explained.

We shall never know the Duke’s truth. BUT he has been found guilty by association . A paedophile, Epstein, tried, found guilty and jailed. Andrew photographed with him in Central Park, after freed from jailed. When asked at that fateful interview on TV, he wails “but he is my friend” REALLY ?? What did that so called friend have on him?? WHATEVER, the cost is huge. Stripped of HRH. Loss of all his military titles, and patronage. Disgrace for his family, Especially HM THE QUEEN. £15 million pounds. HE JUST DOESNT SEE IT. The best he can do is what HM THE QUEENS Uncle did. Edward the eighth abdicated, lived abroad, and allowed his brother and family rebuild the damaged monarchy. If Andrew goes now, the senior working royals can put all this private and public grief behind them and carry on what HM THE QUEEN has achieved in her 70 year reign. MAN UP this will not go well if you don’t
