British royal family news divulges that some in the crowd watching Queen Elizabeth’s coffin as it made its way through Edinburgh were not pleased with one attendant. Today Prince Andrew heard himself heckled by a protester who yelled, “Andrew, you’re a sick old man.”
Andrew, whose name will now forever be preceded by the word “disgraced” was given the boo as his mother’s hearse wound its way through the streets. Soon enough the male protester was taken to the ground by a policeman and a bystander.
Royal Family News – Disgraced Andrew Heckled
The three tussled on the ground for a brief bit and then the officer, “led him away as he shouted ‘disgusting’ and ‘I’ve done nothing wrong’ while in the background people shouted ‘God save the King.’”
According to the Daily Mail, “a 22-year-old man had been arrested in connection with a breach of the peace on the Royal Mile.” Adding further insult to ego injury, Andrew was not allowed to wear military dress today and instead wore a morning suit. He is a veteran of the Falklands War but has been pulled from public royal life after his association in his friend Jeffrey Epstein’s sex scandal.

Andrew was friends with the dead convicted pedophile as well as Epstein’s “pimp” Ghislaine Maxwell, who is now in prison convicted of similar sex trafficking charges. In February Andrew astounded the world when he paid millions to one of Epstein’s victims after she brought a suit against him claiming he had sex with her when she was a minor, on two occasions. Andrew denied the charge and chose to settle the case out of court, eliminating the need to testify under oath. Thus, his royal career is in mothballs, with little chance of his status as pariah changing.
Royal Family News – Andrew Is A Pariah?
“The prince will have to appear in civilian clothes at all the other public events to mourn his mother, although an exception will reportedly be made as a special mark of respect for the Queen at the final vigil in Westminster Hall.”
To this news, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s pet reporter Omid Scobie threw out a caustic comment, noting that, “Prince Harry – who has also seen military action by serving two tours of Afghanistan – has been banned from wearing his uniform at all.” Not even in an official mourning period can the Markle camp stop from back biting.
Scooby Doo tweeted: “I understand that, unlike Prince Andrew, Prince Harry will NOT be allowed to wear uniform at the final vigil in Westminster Hall. No doubt a huge blow for the Duke of Sussex, who served for 10 years and this morning spoke of the Queen being his ”commander-in-chief.”’
Of course talk is cheap, and whatever Harry said today is a drop in the bucket compared to the torrent of verbal abuse he has flung at the monarchy for the last two years.
