Prince Andrew has been criticized by a Government minister who stated that he did not merit the titles he has been stripped of. Sir Chris Bryant shared an encounter where Andrew insisted on arriving by helicopter, a departure from the late Queen’s usual mode of transportation by car. The minister highlighted the long-standing public sentiment for Andrew’s titles to be revoked, emphasizing the need for accountability regarding his association with Jeffrey Epstein.
Buckingham Palace recently announced that Prince Andrew has agreed to vacate Royal Lodge due to ongoing controversies surrounding his ties to Epstein. He will now be referred to as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. Sir Chris Bryant pointed out the seriousness of the allegations against Andrew, especially in light of the tragic death of Virginia Giuffre, a victim of sex trafficking.
Sir Chris urged Andrew, now considered an ordinary citizen, to cooperate with any inquiries, particularly if requested by US authorities. He emphasized the importance of upholding the law and responding to legal obligations. Despite Andrew’s denials, the Palace acknowledged significant lapses in judgment and the necessity of taking corrective actions, including the change in his official title and relocation to alternative accommodation.
