In a decisive move, Buckingham Palace has confirmed the removal of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s name from the roll of the peerage, marking a significant step in the formal revocation of his royal titles. The announcement, made late Thursday evening, follows months of mounting pressure surrounding Andrew’s controversial private life. This decision strips him of his “prince” title and necessitates his departure from his royal residence in Windsor. The dramatic statement from the Palace comes in the wake of renewed allegations in a posthumous memoir by Virginia Giuffre, who claims she was coerced into sexual encounters with Andrew as a teenager—allegations he has consistently denied. While Giuffre’s brother, Sky Roberts, has expressed approval of King Charles’s action, he emphasized to the BBC that further investigation is necessary to address the gravity of the accusations. This development underscores the monarchy’s efforts to distance itself from scandal and uphold its public image.
