Royal Family News – Andrew Will Testify
On Sunday Queen Elizabeth, Andrew’s mother, will mark the official date of her 70th year on the throne. In June there will be a four day bank holiday to commemorate the event, known as her Platinum Jubilee.
Apparently Andrew is, “being prepared by his UK-based legal team as he prepares to face a grilling over the span of two days by David Boies, 80, one of America’s most renowned attorneys,” according to Sigrid McCawley.
The queen stripped Prince Andrew of his military titles and royal peerages last month when the judge refused to toss the case out at Andrew’s request. Now it appears he will face interrogation over Giuffre’s claims that he had sex with her when she was a minor, on three occasions in 2001.
