Analysis: Queen Elizabeth II’s decision to strip Prince Andrew of his military titles and patronages was a brutal and humiliating exercise in damage-limitation, royal experts say.

Andrew will no longer be able to use “His Royal Highness” in any capacity, a royal source told NBC News. He will give up a dozen military titles and will no longer be patron of more than 100 organizations and clubs — though many had already cut ties with him. He retains his rank as vice admiral and remains ninth in line to the British throne.Falklands War between Britain and Argentina in 1982

“We understand that he is your son,” the letter went on, but “these steps could have been taken at any time in the past eleven years. Please do not leave it any longer.” , now 61, in the 1990s. He has repeatedly denied the allegations and that he has ever met Giuffre, who was 17 at the time.he told the BBC in 2019If the case isn’t settled out of court or otherwise dismissed, Andrew could be forced to give evidence at a high-profile trial starting in the fall or winter.

Hardly enough to count as ‘punishment’

Y acaso la Reina Isabel II no está suficientemente humillada luego de lo que hizo el 'primer ministro', aparte de lo hecho en el pasado por su hijo el Príncipe Andrés rodeándose de delincuentes ? (aunque tiene el beneficio de la duda si sabía sobre el 'negocio' del Epstein).

That was too harsh. Prince Andrew is yet to be convicted on the alleged sexual crimes by the virtue of his association with the late Jeffrey Epstein. At this stage, it's allegations.

Let's see what they do once he's found guilty

Haven't given a rat's ass since

this is the most brutal and humiliating exercise . The Queen alone? No way. That is the most unfortunate thing and it starts with Andrew, then Harry, then ---The longer the lady stays, the more tragic happenings will evolve.

Well trafficking and sexually abusing women are humiliating and dishonorable acts as well. Sir Andrew, 'ball up', chin up and take it like a man!

The only thing more humiliating is the title, Royal Expert.

You realize the monarchy has access to intelligence that the press couldn’t? You best believe the information about Andrew is damning and likely known for quite so time. Actions have consequences, even for a prince.

Hard to say da Queen really stripped him—certainly didn’t strip him bare like a teenage girl & eff him raw—like he’s an asset to their military, lol, bloody hell! Why ain’t Prince Andrew in da can? Shouldn’t we call him the Andrew formerly known as Prince?

Explain this.

Womp womp

Prince Andrew drew a smile when he heard the word 'strip!'

She knows the truth

These accusations against Andrew are not new; I think the monarchy has long had damning intelligence on the prince and it was too much to ignore any longer.

The queen is already an accomplice to child sex trafficking and abuse. Too late for that.

Let's hope he can recover

Good call.

Pray to god HarryandMeghan are next 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Prince Andrews' decision to violate underage women was a brutal and humiliating exercise in entitled self gratification, human being experts say.

I feel so sorry for her 😢

He's still in line to the throne, though...so once again...I don't see this as meaning anything.

Queen Elizabeth personally told Prince Andrew that he was no longer HRHPrince Andrew was told face-to-face by his mother, Queen Elizabeth, that he will no longer be known as His Royal Highness, The Post is told. I wonder if Queen Elizabeth ever feels any kind of embarrassment when she has to do public events. Her kids are a never ending suppy of crap behaviour. Charles marriage to Diana was like an ocean of scandal. Then Harry ran away from home. Now Andrew is prince of the perverts. Definitely this is a serious issue and a must action taking scenario. However, the UK has lot many significant & basic issues which are highly needed to be resolved urgently. Stop implementing unrealistic ratio of taxes on expats & reduce inflation rate & discrimination ofcourse. This dude must be sweating pretty much right now

Queen Elizabeth revokes Prince Andrew's military titles, royal patronagesBREAKING: Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, has had his military titles and royal patronages revoked just one day after his attempt to have a lawsuit dismissed from alleged Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre was denied. MORE: Buckingham Palace: “With The Queen's approval and agreement, The Duke of York’s military affiliations and Royal patronages have been returned to The Queen.' Yet, across the pond… Why would a bunch of old men fly to an island that you know a bunch of underage girls were there. They were not your daughters or your relatives. You had no business of being around these little girls anyway. Don’t understand this.
