Prince Andrew Faces Dark Future After Royal Expert Reveals That King Charles III Has Zero Plans To Include Duke in Monarchy

A royal expert claims that King Charles III has no plans for Prince Andrew to partake in the British monarchy's future after Queen Elizabeth II' death.

Prince Andrew's tenure as a working royal, according to Nick Bullen, co-founder of True Royalty TV, is "well and truly over."

'Well And Truly Over' For Prince Andrew

Bullen said to Fox News Digital, "For Prince Andrew, his role as a working royal is well and well ended. In the upcoming weeks and months, we won't be seeing much more of him."

The second son of the Queen was present at his mother Queen Elizabeth II's funeral earlier this month despite having his royal HRH title, military service, and charitable affiliations revoked following revelations about his associations with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

However, it is commonly believed that King Charles III plans to "slim down" the monarchy during his reign, which would allow him to concentrate on his heirs rather than his disgraced brother. Prince Andrew no longer has a place in the monarchy, according to Bullen, who also added that the Duke of York will not be awarded any of his military titles once they were removed following the discovery of his connections to Epstein.

In January, Buckingham Palace made the announcement that the Prince will lose all of his military patronage and titles. It is believed that King Charles had a significant impact on the choice, as per Daily Mail.

Following the disclosure of Prince Andrew's ties to Epstein and his catastrophic Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis of the BBC, the actor Virgina Roberts, who now goes by the married name of Giuffre, threatened to sue him in the US.

Prince Andrew Only Allowed to Return During Queen Elizabeth II's Funeral

The Duke of York faced mounting pressure and negative press as a result of the New York civil sex assault lawsuit, and it was revealed in January 2021 that the Prince would forfeit his royal patronages in order to defend himself against the accusations as a "private citizen."

Last week, when their mother was laid to rest in Westminster Hall, Prince Andrew and his siblings were permitted to stand vigil next to her coffin for a short time while he was dressed in his military uniform.

Soon after Her Majesty's passing, Prince Andrew also welcomed mourners at Balmoral as they gathered outside the castle where the Queen passed away to offer flowers and pay homage.

According to a source in the palace, the King gave his brother permission to attend the Queen's vigil wearing his ceremonial military uniform. Epstein's sex abuse victims were said to be "frustrated" by Prince Andrew's return to public life, with some claiming that he was attempting to "rehabilitate" his reputation.

In January, Buckingham Palace announced: "The Duke of York's military affiliations and Royal patronages have been returned to the Queen, with her assent and acceptance. The Duke of York is representing himself in this matter as a private citizen and will keep refraining from performing any official tasks," Daily Express reported.
