Royal Family News: Prince Andrew “Blindsided” The Palace By Using “HRH” On Instagram Post

British royal family news divulges that Prince Andrew went rogue this weekend with a now-deleted post about his wartime mission which he signed with a title he is banned from using.

It’s been reported that even his aides were taken by surprise that he signed the since-deleted Falklands War post with ‘HRH’ in direct violation of Buckingham Palace’s directive that he could no longer use the title.

Royal Family News – Andrew Was In Violation?

The disgraced Duke of York posted the Instagram musings about his Falklands experience to his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson’s Instagram account on Saturday. There was instant hubbub about his words, where they were placed, and how he signed off. Apparently the attention was too much and the post was quickly deleted—much like Andrew himself has been excised from public life.

In the Falklands Andrew flew missions as a Sea King helicopter pilot. Apparently, Buckingham Palace and the duke’s aides were unaware he had published the posts.

He used the signature, “HRH The Duke of York,” even though his mother and the nation’s monarch Queen Elizabeth stripped Andrew of his military titles in January as a consequence of his civil court sex abuse case. After the post gained traction, the ‘HRH’ was removed, and roughly two hours after its release, the entire post was deleted.

Royal Family News – Andrew Went Rogue?

In an initial Instagram post, Sarah wrote: “I asked Andrew this morning for his reflections on the anniversary of his sailing from Portsmouth to the Falkland Islands 40 years ago.” The two exes have been divorced for years yet still live together on the queen’s estate.

Andrew’s post began: “As I sit here at my desk on this cold crisp spring morning thinking back to April 1982 I’ve tried to think what was going through my mind as we sailed out of Portsmouth lining the flight deck of HMS INVINCIBLE.”

He added, “So whilst I think back to a day when a young man went to war, full of bravado, I returned a changed man. I put away childish things and false bravado and returned a man full in the knowledge of human frailty and suffering.”

“And, i’m (sic) afraid to say, that the historical perspective my short war has taught me is this – war is failure to keep peace; war is failure of human judgement; war is failure to recognize we need to seek permission to understand another persons perspective or reality, whether or not we agree or disagree with that perspective or reality.”
