Former Jeffrey Epstein pal, Prince Andrew, reportedly got chauffeured to church while at Balmoral on Sunday, September 15, by his future king, a “softened” up Prince William, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Getting a photo op with the Prince of Wales on Prince Harry’s 40th birthday, no less, is “more than he (Andrew) could have wished for,” an insider spilled.
This follows a similar ride the “rotund disgrace” received from William and Kate, Princess of Wales, while at the enclosed royal compound last summer, making it seem like King Charles III seeks to make this a yearly tradition. The monarch, 75, still receiving cancer treatments, is reported to have “ordered” his heir to pick the eighth in line to the throne up for the lift “knowing full well” paps were waiting on the outskirts to snap pics of “Randy Andy’s” regal ride share.
This led Member of Parliament for York Central, Rachel Maskell, who put forth a bill in the chamber to strip the Duke, 64, of his royal title, to share, “Any public rehabilitation of the Duke of York is certainly not something the country as a whole would welcome at all.”
The MP added, “The Duke carried an ambassadorial role across the world and to be represented by someone with a questionable past, certainly for the people of the country that I represent, is not something we want.”
During Andrew’s lift last summer, and in an apparent bid to use the Wales’ to boost Andrew’s image, Charles III “overruled” William’s pushback and commanded “the family to fall in line in welcoming the disgraced Duke of York back into the family fold,” royal expert Russell Myers shared.
Amid the controversy whipped up last year, some insiders stepped forward to throw cold water on the reactions. “He is part of the family. He is the king’s brother. He has not been found guilty of any crime, and I think it’s fair to say that the king is making it clear that he won’t turn his back on his brother,” a friend of King Charles’ spilled to a publication in August 2023.
Social media reactions were a bit different, with one commenter stating on X, “Will Andrew be following Harry back to the USA? I think the FBI wants a word with him,” one user wrote.
“Lol. It’s another bold choice. His own daughters won’t even be seen with him,” another person replied while referring to Andrew’s children, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
Maskell concluded by sharing, “People have welcomed the slimming down of the monarchy, both in terms of royals and vast numbers of staff working for them. And with an increased cost of monarchy, up to record figures this year, at a time of great hardship for so many millions of people across our country, this is not something the country is looking for.”
