Prince Andrew's Royal Life Now Over After King Charles III Succeeded Throne
Prince Andrew was hopeful he could be a working royal again through Queen Elizabeth II - but it became impossible after her death.
The emergence of Virginia Giuffre's accusations against Prince Andrew led him to give up his senior royal life. Aside from the sexual impropriety, the Duke of York was also put under fire due to his relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who took his life at the age of 66.
After stepping back from public duties for the unforeseeable future, Prince Andrew became hopeful of reclaiming his titles and position through Queen Elizabeth II. But the monarch's death made it impossible for him to retrace his steps in the monarchy.
True Royalty TV co-founder Nick Bullen recently sat down for an interview with Fox News Digital and talked about Prince Andrew. He declared that the royal prince's life as a working royal is "over."
"We won't be seeing very much more of him in the coming weeks and months. I don't believe that he is a part of the king's plan for the future of the monarchy. The king has been very clear in saying that he wants a slimmed-down monarchy," he said.
Bullen added that rather than Prince Andrew, King Charles III would choose to focus on his grandchildren and immediate heirs, like Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
The expert added that Prince William and Kate - now Catherine, Princess of Wales - would step out and help him continue Her Majesty's legacy.
Although he stepped down after his friendship with Epstein was publicized, he stirred issues with King Charles III when he attended Prince Philip's memorial.
In an article, Julie McCaffrey of The Mirror stated that Queen Elizabeth II's decision to be accompanied by Prince Andrew was "a slap in the face" for the UK.
Prince Andrew Hoped For a Great Comeback
Before Queen Elizabeth II's death, a source close to the Duke of York revealed that he wanted to do more in his life.
The Sun was the first outlet to receive the top, saying Prince Andrew would love to continue his royal life by becoming a senior member again. Although the insider divulged that he had discussions with his mother already, there were also wider family discussions that could affect his future.
He believed the late monarch would influence King Charles III and Prince William's plan and include him again in the monarchy.
But with the new King's plan to slim down the monarchy, royal fans believe he is hanging by a thread now.
