Prince Andrew kicked off from Buckingham Palace amid Jeffrey Epstein scandal: report
Relations November 23, 2020 0 COMMENTSPrince Andrew has been banished from his private office at Buckingham Palace, according to a new report.
The embattled Duke of York was kicked out of the royal roost Friday, the Times of London said.
The move, reportedly authorized by Queen Elizabeth II, his mom, came after Andrew stepped down from his royal duties Wednesday amid intense backlash over his BBC interview defending his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
During the now infamous sit-down, Andrew failed to express any sympathy for Epstein’s victims and bizarrely claimed he didn’t regret consorting with the now dead predator because the friendship afforded him “opportunities” that “were actually very useful.”
He also denied ever meeting the alleged Epstein “sex slave” who claims she was coerced into having sex with the prince when she was 17 years old. Confronted over the infamous photo showing his arm around the teen’s waist, he said the image could have been “faked.”
According to The Times, Andrew is the first member of the British royal family to essentially retire over a ruined reputation.
Friday’s purported palace eviction came shortly after Andrew’s private secretary Amanda Thirsk was similarly sacked by the queen, the newspaper reported.
But scandal aside, Queen Elizabeth gave a show of support for her second son Friday when she went horseback riding with him near Windsor Castle, The Metro reported.
