Prince Andrew was dropped from the rotation by the queen herself as he is fighting back against an NYC lawsuit that accuses him of sexual assault. Last week the palace made it clear that he is no longer a member of the monarchy and will have to face his day in the US courts as a “private citizen.”
Inside sources now say that a comprehensive review of his, “security is being carried out by the Metropolitan Police and the Home Office following last week’s decision by the Queen to strip her son of his remaining military and charitable affiliations and stop him using his HRH title.”
The stunning and historic decision was made after a federal judge declared that Andrew’s case would not be dismissed, as per his request.

Prince Andrew is ninth in line to the throne. To date he has been allowed to keep police bodyguards which cost the taxpayer roughly £2-3million a year.

According to the Daily Mail, “It is understood that the Royal and VIP Executive Committee is now carrying out a review of whether Andrew’s situation is tenable – particularly in light of the Duke of Sussex’s lawyers seeking a judicial review of the Home Office’s decision.”
A source said, “The situation [as regards Harry] is awkward and may prompt a decision sooner rather than later. If Harry, who is no longer a working royal, does not get security in the UK, then why should Andrew?”
