Giuffre family welcomes Andrew’s fall from royal status but says he faces more questions

  • On Thursday, October 30, Buckingham Palace announced King Charles III began the formal process to strip Andrew Mountbatten Windsor of his titles and evict him from Royal Lodge.
  • Virginia Giuffre's posthumous memoir, released Oct. 21, reiterated allegations she was trafficked and abused, including at 17, which palace sources called the 'final straw' that pressured King Charles III last week.
  • Court records indicate a 2022 settlement ended Virginia Giuffre's civil case, while Andrew has repeatedly denied the allegations and London's Metropolitan Police took no further action in 2021.
  • Giuffre's family praised the stripping of titles and Sky Roberts said his sister would be 'celebrating from the heavens' as Prime Minister Keir Starmer's spokesman confirmed government support and Buckingham Palace expressed sympathy for victims on Thursday.
  • Andrew has been removed from the official roll of the peerage and will lose the Duke of York title, remains eighth in line for now, and will move shortly to the Sandringham estate with the move privately funded by Charles.
