Prince Andrew is on a mission to rehabilitate his image, and oddly enough, he is sitting on a stash of photos that could help him in his master plan.
However, there is one major problem — King Charles III will ensure these photos are kept from the public. On May 6th, King Charles and his wife, Queen Camilla, were crowned during a lavish ceremony at Westminster Abbey.
Over two thousand people attended the event. Prince Andrew has been stripped of all his titles and extravagant privileges because of his ties to Jeffrey Epstein‘s sex scandal, and many were shocked and disbelieved when he arrived at the royal church.
The disgraced prince defied the King by wearing velvet robes to the crowning. Prince Harry and Prince Andrew were banned from wearing the attire because they are no longer working royals.
King Charles and Prince Andrew’s embarrassing photos
Prince Andrew further broke the rules by secretly joining the Royal Family in the official coronation portraits taken by Hugo Burnand
.
A royal source revealed to the Telegraph: “Andrew wanted to be included in the photoshoot and requested that there would be time in the schedule for him to be photographed.”
King Charles will make sure the photos never come out. The insider explained: “He wanted to make sure there was an official record of his participation in his brother’s coronation. But it is unlikely the palace will release the images.”
Prince Andrew challenges King Charles
Prince Andrew has a habit of going rogue and embarrassing the royals, like in his BBC trainwreck interview, where he attempted to push back against the allegations that he sexually assaulted Epstein’s victim, Virginia Giuffre, when she was a teenager.
He also loves to challenge King Charles. Immediately after starting his reign, His Majesty took the decision to slim down the monarchy.
King Charles, who is determined to keep his 12 castles and palaces, has decided that Prince Andrew must downgrade He also evicted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from Frogmore Cottage.
However, Prince Andrew is not Prince Harry, and he is not going down without a fight. The King wants his younger brother to move from his beloved Royal Lodge home in Windsor.
Queen Elizabeth II apparently gave his favorite child a 75-year lease on the massive $37 million property. The King is pushing Prince Andrew to relocate to Frogmore Cottage.
However, Prince Andrew has made it clear he is not going anywhere, and King Charles cannot do anything about it. King Charles can ask the UK’s chancellor of the exchequer to give his brother the boot from the 30-room property.
However, Prince Andrew knows he has a winnable case. A friend of the Duke of York told the Times: “The lease is in the duke’s name, so no one can take that away from him. It has never been suggested that it could be taken away from him. It’s a long lease with 80 to 90 years left on it. That’s not a matter for the King. It’s a matter for the chancellor of the exchequer.”
Prince Andrew is a bit fearful that King Charles will unplug the electricity at the lodge to get him out.
A person in the know told the Daily Mail: “He is so fragile. He’s refusing to see anybody. This has been his family home for the past 20 years. Is it sensible to kick him out? He’s concerned that now the coronation is over, the knives are out. He’s worried that the royals might even turn off the utilities to get him out of there. But we’re dealing with human beings, not real estate.”
The lodge is set to be given to Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton.
