Royal Family News: The Queen Is Having Heartburn?
The New Year dawned the same as the old year or so it seems for Queen Elizabeth. The same troublemakers are making headlines, and you have got to feel for the 95-year-old monarch who this year will celebrate her Platinum Jubilee. This is the occasion of 70 years on the throne and by all accounts it should have been a joyous occasion marked by happiness and love, not sour apples (Harry) and bad grapes (Andrew).
Instead of fading gracefully into the background so that Her Majesty can enjoy her milestone year, these two knuckleheads are at it again, bringing headlines with words like sex scandal (Andrew) and lawsuit (Harry) in them.
Royal Family News: The New Year Is The Same As The Old Year
Days after the New Year, and before the first month has passed, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles and Prince William have been confronted with harsh questions about the specter of both men.

OK! royal expert Jennie Bond echoed the common sentiment that Her Majesty has to be upset with the way Andrew and Prince Harry are conducting themselves for all the world to see. Luckily neither has the privilege of representing her, that honor has rightfully been revoked. But they are still family members and their missteps reflect on the family name all the same.
Royal Family News: The Family Name Is Tarnished?
According to Bond, “I think The Queen will be holding her hands up in despair with her children and some of her grandchildren. Everybody feels for the Queen now with the Andrew debacle, but I think there has to be some equity between Harry and Andrew now.”
“There was the argument, and it probably wasn’t correct, but if Prince Harry has been stripped of his titles, then Andrew should have been some time ago.”

That little detail was taken care of last week when Andrew was stripped of his military and royal patronages due to the ongoing civil sexual abuse case brought against him by Virginia Giuffre.
Meanwhile this week it emerged that Harry might sue his grandmother because he does not feel protected enough–Just can’t make this stuff up.
Be sure to catch up on everything happening with the royal family. Come back here often for royal family news and updates.
Both Andrew and Harry are bringing harm and difficult situations to their families reputation. The difference is Andrews disgrace is largely on himself but has inadvertently and unintentionally harmed his family. Harry's behavior on the other hand has been deliberately orchestrated to try to harm his family and it would seem try to sneakily target certain individuals. I would feel sorry for any mother/grandmother having to deal with even one of these situations.
Hey, Jezz.
I am not a UK citizen. (I live in the US), however I have a great deal of respect for Her Majesty.
I can't believe that this is what she has to deal with at this stage in her life/Reign.
Andrew is NOT seeking attention. He's trying to avoid it.
On the other hand…..
Considering Harry and Meghan wanted to be out of the limelight why are they going in the first place. They can wish her majesty a happy jubilee over zoom. Totally solves the problem.
I think Harry, Megan and Andrew are a disgrace to the Royal family. They should be stripped of all titles including Duke, & Dutchess for the Markles and the Duke title Andrew has and it should not be passed on to Harry. I don't know any family that has problems, but most of us are smart enough and considerate enough not to blacken the family name. The three of them should just fade into the sunset.
"Doesn't have…"
Funny readers! You all forgot the bad and evil behave when Prince Charles and Camilla were lovers .Hippocrates! Attaching Prince Harry just made each one of you one of those that ask death penalty, judging by your own misery state of mind.
You don't have to be British or even a fan of the royals to feel sorry for a mother and grandmother going through this very public family drama and humiliation. You, like me I guess feel compassion for an elderly woman having to struggle with this mess after a life of dedicated service not just to the UK but to be an ambassador to strengthen relationships to countries like the USA. I don't condone Andrews conduct and associations but I don't think he would intentionally hurt his mother or her legacy, like you say Harry on the other hand was deliberate and spiteful. Thank you for your response.
I don't think the Queen wants to strip Harry and Megan because I don't think she wants their children, her grandchildren to suffer for their parents behavior. I don't know too much about titles and their monetary benefits but I would guess if she takes certain titles etc from Harry it could impact hereditary lines to the children. As much as I don't like how Harry and Meghan have behaved towards their grandmother and grandfather I don't want to see their children loose their birthright due to their parents actions.
Sorry I meant to send my reply to you but accidentally replied to MS instead.
Was Camilla under age? Was she unwilling? Did Charles deliberately give out false stories to the press to humiliate the Queen and tell lots of stories about his family to make money and make himself look good? Lots of difference here. While I do not condone what Charles did by any means I think his faux paux was he truly had found his soulmate and love of his life and got pressured into marrying someone he didnt have the same feelings for and was hoping possibly that love would grow in time which did not happen. But he did gain 2 beautiful sons, to bad one is to jealous and spoiled to recognize all he could have been and how he could have been of service to others and his country that he so professes he wants to do.
Would love Harry to return but without his ‘wife’
You would be wise to get on the Internet and view a few interviews with St. Diana.
She was her worse enemy.
I really don't believe things were as she said. Self-absorbed narcissist and habitual liar.
Who tosses their Stepmother down the stairs at a Party because they (Diana) "flew into a rage?
It’s claimed Charles began to talk about the Goons and Bel Mooney started singing their well known tune, The Ying Tong Song.Her daughter turned to William and said: ‘God, aren’t parents embarrassing?’ William allegedly replied, ‘Papa doesn’t embarrass me — Mama does.’
Diana had asked me if I wanted her to wash my shirts.
I said, ‘No Ma’am, that’s ridiculous,’ but she said ‘no, I like washing’ so I threw a couple in.
“The next morning I came in and she was ironing my shirts.
“She was standing there with only a towel around her and William came in and said, ‘Oh, why are you doing Ken’s shirts?’ and pulled the towel off her“
She was totally naked and I said, ‘William that was stupid.’
William said, ‘I know Mummy likes you.’ and I said ‘William, Mummy likes a lot of people. Let’s not do that.’”
“He was slightly aware of her allure ‒ he wasn’t stupid. It all happened so quickly.
“There was a smile on Diana’s face. Whatever she was thinking, she had to see the funny side.”
{Yeah.. So hysterical}.
I don't believe half the "Stories" Diana planted in the Media.
All were self-serving and she the poor helpless victim.
That "cufflink" fairy tale? Made up in her mind, along with most her nonsense.
"Camilla was at MY Wedding"!!
Waa-waa-waa.
Of course she was. At the time she was married to Andrew who was a (de-facto member of the family)
He served as a PAGEBOY at Queen Elizabeth II Coronation as was employeed at some capacity for several years.
So, Camilla is supposed to be parked at home during the Ceremony because?????
