One scandal too many forces UK monarchy to sideline Prince Andrew after years of tabloid fodder

Prince Andrew relinquished his Duke of York title following allegations linked to Jeffrey Epstein and a 2022 U.S. lawsuit settlement, ending his royal duties and military ties.

  • On Friday, Prince Andrew, 65, said he would give up his title of Duke of York after years of criticism over ties to Jeffrey Epstein, late disgraced U.S. financier.
  • The legal fallout includes Virginia Giuffre's allegations linking Prince Andrew to Epstein properties, and he settled a U.S. lawsuit in February 2022 while denying wrongdoing.
  • Following public criticism, Prince Andrew was stripped of military links, royal patronages, and the 'His Royal Highness' style, after earlier quitting a 2011 trade role.
