King Charles Bans Prince Andrew From Buckingham Palace Over Links With Jeffrey Epstein

Prince Andrew, the Duke of York is apparently no longer permitted to use Buckingham Palace following a string of controversies concerning his previous association with s*x offender Jeffrey Epstein.

According to a recent article in The Sun, the Duke of York was instructed to stop using Buckingham Palace as an office space, essentially severing his final link to his previous life as a working royal.

According to a source, “Any presence at the Palace is officially over. The King has made it clear. He isn’t a working royal. He’s on his own.”

The King’s decision will prevent Andrew, 62, from using the address for any upcoming correspondence. According to reports, the little staff that had remained in the palace since he retired from public service three years ago now risks losing their jobs.

The news follows the announcement that Queen Consort Camilla will take over the disgraced Duke’s role as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards as part of a reorganization of key royal military ranks.

As a result of the reorganization, the Princess of Wales will replace her husband as colonel of the Irish Guards and get her first Army rank.

Also, the Welsh Guards will now be led by Prince William as colonel.

Andrew took over his late father’s role as colonel of the Grenadier Guards after the Duke of Edinburgh retired from public life in 2017.

However, the Queen made him resign from his official royal duties in 2019 after his terrible BBC Newsnight interview.

He maintained ten military associations up until this year, including colonel of the Grenadier Guards, as he attempted to clear his character in the wake of the controversy surrounding his relationship with US child molester Jeffery Epstein.

He was eventually relieved of the ceremonial title earlier this year after deciding to settle a civil case with one of Epstein’s victims, Virginia Giuffre, who had also accused him of assault.

A settlement, estimated to have cost around $12 million (£9.8 million), was reached last year. Meanwhile, Prince Andrew has consistently vehemently denied all wrongdoing.

Tomorrow, Andrew will eat Christmas dinner at Sandringham with King Charles and other senior royals.

The 73-year-old King will also honor Queen Elizabeth II in his inaugural Christmas Day speech.
