Will Queen Elizabeth let Prince “Randy Andy” Andrew keep an honorary military title even though he has been virtually mothballed, silenced and kept out of public view? The answer to that is a firm ‘yes’ according to The Sunday Times.
Royal Family News – Why is Prince Andrew Absent From View?
According to the outlet, Her Majesty wants her son Andrew to remain current with his colonel of the Grenadier Guards title. Never mind that in 2019 the duke stepped down from public duties following a BBC interview deemed a train wreck. In it he tried to clarify his involvement with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein but ended up stinking up the atmosphere even more.
This month a civil lawsuit was filed against him in New York by accuser Virginia Giuffre. She is suing him for alleged sexual abuse and assault. Despite the headlines generated by the lawsuit, neither Buckingham Palace nor Andrew have commented on the matter.
Anonymous military sources told The Sunday Times that, “all agree,” Andrew, “should go,” in seeming contrast to his mom’s alleged wishes that he keep his military standing.

Royal Family News: Is The Queen Right or Wrong?
For now Queen Elizabeth has let Andrew keep the prestigious military title. A source told the outlet, “The Queen has let it be known to the regiment that she wants the Duke of York to remain as colonel and the feeling is that nobody wants to do anything that could cause upset to the colonel-in-chief. It is a very difficult, unsatisfactory situation.”
The source added, “His position is not tenable or viable. How can you have a colonel who can’t perform the role? For the brief time he was in post, he was a good colonel, but the feeling across the regiment is that it’s not appropriate to retain him. You can’t have a colonel who can’t do public duties.”

A royal spokesperson told HuffPost on Monday that, “the Grenadiers and all The Duke’s military appointments are in abeyance after he stepped back from royal duties for the foreseeable future in November 2019. This remains the situation.”

What? She let Andrew get by with his shenanigans but punished poor old Harry! Don’t blame her for hating Meghan though, she is such a primadona! Plus Meghan insisted on Harry leaving all his family behind but then named the baby girl after the Queen! What a contradiction! Harry should have stood up TO his wife not FOR her!
He'll stay out of the spotlight though. He's too hot to be seen and commented on.
