Ex-Prince Andrew was stripped of his royal title last year due to his past controversies. According to a source, ending his royal privileges completely might backfire. Reportedly, if the constitution fully restricts his means of earnings and security, the monarchy could allegedly deal with “unintended consequences.” For those unversed, under King Charles’ rule, the former Duke of York had to return to being Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. The latter would also reportedly have to vacate his forever home, Royal Lodge.
Ex-Prince Andrew might do this if he feels ‘deliberately punished,’ claims source
Ex-Prince Andrew could reportedly make things difficult for the monarchy if he felt “deliberately punished.” Due to his past scandals, King Charles stripped his younger brother of the royal title and some privileges. Recently, a source told RadarOnline that the decision to fully end his rights might backfire.
“At that point, the instinct to act out, speak publicly, or pursue his own interests without regard for the family becomes far more likely,” they claimed. Furthermore, the insider revealed that the ex-duke has allegedly been cut off from any means of ”earning a living.” He seemingly would not have any public role or royal status backing him up, which might put him under pressure.
“If he starts to feel deliberately punished or boxed into a corner, the idea of monetizing his experiences becomes far more appealing,” they warned. Hence, Andrew could allegedly find ways, including writing a memoir or appearing in TV interviews.
Meanwhile, another palace source informed that the ex-royal has currently been in the process of moving out of Royal Lodge. Moreover, King Charles has reportedly offered his brother a “humbler royal home,” but Andrew’s daily routine of living a lavish life has seemingly not changed.
From having a grand dinner on silverware to insisting on an extravagant household, nothing has allegedly changed. “That routine reflects a broader mindset. Andrew still behaves as if his status remains intact, projecting an air of entitlement and expecting those around him to defer to him in the same way they always have,” the insider added.
