Prince Andrew, a once-beloved son of a monarch, has faced a significant fall from grace, now being referred to as plain Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. This downfall, which even his great uncle who abdicated retained his titles, is difficult to comprehend. The pressure for stricter action against Andrew has been mounting from the public, media, and Parliament, leading to the unprecedented decision by the King to strip him of his titles.
Amid concerns for the reputation of the Royal Family, the King and Queen expressed their support for abuse victims. Although Andrew denies any wrongdoing, his association with a convicted child trafficker has raised serious concerns. Reluctant to leave his entitlement at Royal Lodge, Andrew will be accommodated by his brother on the Sandringham Estate.
This move, aimed at damage control and supported by Camilla, a vocal advocate for abuse survivors, has caused a major crisis within the monarchy.
