Days after the announcement that the former Prince Andrew has been stripped of all his “titles” and “honours,” the royal family has made a big change to their official website.
On Thursday, Buckingham Palace released a statement saying that King Charles “initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours” from the former royal.
In the aftermath, the disgraced former Duke of York’s profile on their website appears to have been deleted from the senior royals’ section, and his page is no longer live.
The demotion stems from allegations that the royal was among Epstein’s clients. Virginia Giuffre, a victim of Epstein, claims that he introduced her to Andrew, who she alleged sexually abused her on multiple occasions.
Despite the recent change, the site still includes the former royal on its ‘line of succession’ page, which hasn’t been updated yet and continues to list him as eighth in line to the throne.
Before the weekend, and just shortly after ordering Andrew to leave the Royal Lodge on the Windsor Castle estate, King Charles was seen visiting his younger brother’s new home.
The King was seen driving through the Sandringham estate on Friday, where his brother Andrew will be moving in soon.
Along with being kicked out of the Royal Lodge, King Charles also confirmed his brother would no longer be called “Prince Andrew” and will now simply be known as “Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.”
On Oct. 17, Andrew issued a statement saying he would renounce his Duke of York title, while still maintaining his innocence.
“In discussion with The King, and my immediate and wider family, we have concluded the continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family,” Andrew said in a statement released by Buckingham Palace. “I have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life.”
Andrew continued, “With His Majesty’s agreement, we feel I must now go a step further. I will therefore no longer use my title or the honours which have been conferred upon me. As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me.”
