Duke of York Resigns From Royal Duties

Prince Andrew resigned from his royal duties as a senior royal back in November after his friendship with Epstein got him involved in the latter’s scandal. In his BBC Newsnight interview, the 60-year-old Duke of York appeared like he didn’t have that much sympathy for the victims of Epstein.

Epstein committed suicide in prison while awaiting charges of sex trafficking. Prince Andrew drew ire from the public for his failure to apologize for being friends with the disgraced financier.

Since then, the Duke was seen in public a few times and the last one was back in January. He was seen attending a Sunday service at St Mary the Virgin Church in Norfolk with Queen Elizabeth.
