A source told the Times, “The duke is spending time working out how he can serve his country and support the monarchy in the future, and what else he might want to do with his life.”
He must not have gotten the memo that his family has washed their hands of him? He was persona non grata at his daughter’s summer wedding, all trace of him has been ripped off the official royal websites and he is barred from representing the monarchy he now wishes to reclaim. What’s next, feckless Prince Harry has a sudden hankering for home, too?
Britsh Royal Family News – Prince Andrew Is Apparently Wanting Back Into The Royal Fold
According to the source, Prince Andrew is trying his best to determine, “how he can serve the monarchy,” as he plots a return to royal duties. You will recall (as apparently Andrew himself can’t) that the disgraced royal “stepped back” from his duties after he massacred his image with a 2019 train wreck BBC interview about his relationship with dead convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
In the November interview, he tried to tell his version about allegations that he had sex with underage 17-year-old Virginia Roberts three times, something the FBI wishes to chat with him about.

That interview was roundly criticized for its unrepentant nature and in turn, his charities and businesses kicked him to the curb.
Andrew now has PR expert Mark Gallagher, aka “the backroom fixer” in his corner as he tries to wheedle a return.
According to the source, “He’s locked down at Royal Lodge thinking about his future service and public role. He has some clear thoughts. He’s very sensitive to the public mood and acutely conscious that the public is the most important stakeholder.”
And get this, “He feels he has support from the family, very much so, including all his siblings and his parents.
Any potential comeback would first have to be thrashed out in talks with Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, Prince William, palace officials, and the government.”
In a more likely version of events, a separate source confirmed to the outlet that conversations were had but they think the idea of Prince Andrew returning to an official role is absurd.
