Queen cuts Andrew adrift: Duke of York is stripped of ALL his military titles and royal patronages, will no longer use HRH in official capacity and is told he will have to face sex assault lawsuit as a 'private citizen'

Prince Andrew was today stripped of his military titles and royal patronages by the Queen, who said he will have to face his sexual assault lawsuit as a 'private citizen'.

The Duke of York will no longer be allowed to use the styling 'HRH' in any capacity, signalling the royal family's attempt to distance itself from the ninth in line to the throne as he faces a humiliating trial in the US.

The move to shred his ties with the military is likely to be particularly painful for Andrew, a military veteran who served as a helicopter pilot for the Royal Navy during the Falklands War.

Clinton will skate for sure. Nothing sticks to that bastard. Hopefully the others will get their wings clipped. I would like to see Dershowitz get his just on general principles. That poor girl was put through hell be those sons of bitches.

Maybe Liz has been reading a bit of history.

That poor woman and mother.

She had to sit in isolation at her husbands funeral and now she has to admit that she has a reprobate son.

Those two have been quiet lately. Their PR war against his family is probably not feeling so fun these days in light of their many failures to launch. I wonder if they still have anyone to bankroll them.

What did he do besides sleep with a 17 year old?

it's well known he is her favourite child. And he betrayed her and the House of Windsor with lies and continued ill behavior. This time, a bridge crossed too far for mum, what!

It is kind of sad that they have such longevity in this family... most mothers would not have had to face the heart break of having their favorite son exposed as a pedophile.

Queen Elizabeth is the ONLY country leader alive today who actually SERVED in WW II.

The core issue is why Andrew continued to be a “friend” of Epstein’s after he had served a cushy year in prison as a felon sex offender and Andrew knew about it as it was public info. He spent ten days in his mansion in New York a couple of years after Epstein was released. Who would spend time with an RSO?

She seems to understand that decent and rational people cannot respect born into privilege lowlife royals. She has a major problem if she wants to keep the silly system intact after her death. BTW since Britain is really into political correctness and cancel culture wonder if she is tempted to do something about all those portraits and images of Henry VIII. Hedonistic Henry makes Andrew look like a choir boy. Then again Henry was the founder of the Church of England and the queen now holds the title as its nominal head. Things would quickly get very messy if she starts purging past and current royals and clergy.
