The sex scandal of Elizabeth II’s son has caused a new crisis for the royal family.
Pak Sahafat News Agency – The British royal family, which previously struggled to stay safe from the scandals of “Jeffrey Epstein”, American billionaire, is now facing a new challenge.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the British media have recently published new revelations about “Andrew”, the third child of “Elizabeth II”.
Hours after the revelations, Buckingham Palace announced that “the 61-year-old prince has been deprived of all his military and royal titles and titles because the British monarchy seeks to protect itself from the damages of fame resulting from the continuation of legal proceedings.”
The British media have accused Andrew of sexually harassing young girls.
Following the publication of the Buckingham Palace statement, the British media reported that “Andrew” should appear in court.
But Andrew is not the only member of the “British royal family” to be deprived of these titles.
Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson and Diana lost their titles when she divorced Charles.

In addition, Harry, the grandson of Elizabeth II, and his wife agreed not to use their titles.
According to a relative of the “British Royal Family”, by removing the title “Andrew”, “Elizabeth II” hopes to achieve two things; first, he shows that he understands the public outcry over Andrew’s behavior; it also seeks to protect the “royal institution”.
The outlook for the trial appears to stem from Andrew’s long-standing friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted felon and sex offender, and Gislin Maxwell, a British activist recently convicted of child sex trafficking.
Virginia Geifer, one of Epstein’s victims, filed a lawsuit against Andrew last year, alleging that he was forced into a relationship with the “British prince” as a teenager.
Andrew had previously spent more than two years in exile and was barred from public participation following a clumsy attempt to clear his name in a 2019 TV interview.
Yu Gao polls show that only 12% of Britons now have a positive view of him.
