According to reports, Prince William is attempting to guarantee that Prince Andrew steps down fully from his function as a royal in the aftermath of his continuing sex scandal.
The Duke of York resigned from royal responsibilities when the Queen stripped him of his military titles and HRH status in January following a sex scandal. Prince Andrew disputed the charges and later reached an out-of-court settlement with his accuser. The settlement does not constitute an admission of guilt.

Prince Andrew's New Legal Battle
Prince Andrew is facing new legal challenges after attorneys representing an alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein threatened to serve him with court documents yesterday. Caroline Kaufman, 28, alleges Jeffrey Epstein raped her when she was 17 in December 2010.
Her agents claim that Prince Andrew paid a visit to the pedophile financier in his New York house on the same night, and they are demanding a response from the Duke. During the visit, he was photographed inside the Upper East Side home, and Kaufman's supporters think he may testify.
The court lawsuit makes no charge of misconduct against Duke, nor does it assert that he was aware of an assault on Kaufman. Her lawyer, Spencer Kuvin, said he would consider presenting Andrew with legal paperwork to extract a statement.
Kaufman said in her lawsuit against Epstein's $630 million inheritance, filed in Manhattan Federal Court, that she was invited to his home for a modeling interview. She claims she was then escorted to a massage parlor, where the billionaire reportedly raped her, Express reported.
