Parliament Could Strip Prince Andrew of Titles, Expert Suggests
UNITED KINGDOM, AUG 5 – Prince William is expected to use parliamentary legislation and royal assent to strip Prince Andrew of his titles due to ongoing controversies and public pressure, experts say.
- Prince William is reportedly eager to ask his uncle Prince Andrew and his former wife Sarah Ferguson to leave the Royal Lodge amid growing scrutiny of Andrew.
- This follows growing scrutiny over Prince Andrew's conduct, including allegations of misuse of public funds during his trade envoy role and ongoing sexual assault claims.
- Experts note Parliament can strip Andrew's titles through legislation needing Royal Assent, and a private members’ bill giving such powers to the Monarch was considered in 2022 but failed.
- Andrew has withdrawn from public duties, stopped using 'His Royal Highness', and King Charles has cut his personal allowance, while sources say William will be 'ruthless' about the family image.
- The Duke of York’s titles could revert to the Crown on his death, and the future King William may further distance the monarchy from Andrew to protect its reputation.
