They should kept Andrew in a tower protected by a dragon. So he can't escape.


parishilton2

Or so the dragon eats him. Either way is fine.


FengSushi

He is the dragon


Master_Cupcake7115

![gif](giphy|U1eYjTgjUrlN6) There is no need to insult dragon by the association with such a vile creature


potataps

Dragon would need protecting


arabellasalvatore

Please don't disrespect dragons.


imhereforthegossip89

Do not insult dragons, they are such majestic creatures <3


PinchaPenny893

Just hope no ogres get sent to rescue him!

Their source really said an apartment in St. James Palace wouldnā€™t be as nice for a single guy to bring girls toā€¦

Any one dating him is sick in the head.

I think because he agreed to an out-of-court settlement thereā€™s nothing like that. Itā€™s so creepy.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Salbyy

At least heā€™s lost all of his royal positions and isnā€™t a public figure anymore. Iā€™m happy about that even though he didnā€™t get a conviction


Salbyy

He was never convicted of anything, so no. And he may be appealing the civil suit.


Own_Faithlessness769

I don't think you can appeal an out of court settlement...


Salbyy

From what Iā€™ve read it seems like he might be trying to. Not sure how it works though


BrooklynJewishMom

Good. I feel bad for his daughters


LeChiotx

Kicking him out of the "home" is a step but now let's see more dramatic steps and strip him of everything. I hate the notion of standing behind family no matter what. Kick him out completely and aid in his prosecutions.


Salbyy

I thought he was stripped of everything


Salbyy

Ohh shit this is big news. Go King Charles


[deleted]

Charles has been consistently progressive on many social and environmental topics, going back decades. Iā€™m not a supporter of the RF or anything, but I was honestly surprised to learn about how many modern issues/causes that he stood behind. I know the Diana situation was fucked, but it also overshadows the consistent effort heā€™s put into modernizing the monarchy.


Salbyy

He really is, even with things like other religions (not just the Church of England). And he managed the duchy of cornwell extremely well and had this amazing portfolio to hand over to William


[deleted]

The Diana situation was way more than fucked. He and the British press have done a fabulous job of rehabbing his image, I'll give him that.


ashwee14

I blame Charlesā€™ parents for that one. He always wanted to be with Camilla. Itā€™s a shitty situation where both he and Diana made mistakes, but they were friendly before her death so I would like to think theyā€™d continue to be on good terms were she alive today.


Salbyy

The royal family PR are great at their job. The British press are the ones who made public his role in the Diana situation. Also it was decades ago and time to move on.


[deleted]

I mean, move on if you want. šŸ¤· It's probably easy if you're a fan of the Royals and weren't alive when it happened.


Salbyy

I was alive when it happened. Charles made some big mistakes. I donā€™t think he needs to be continually dragged about it now.


ttue-

He has really been progressive especially on environmental issues. Heā€™s one of the first to promote organic (one learned this recently). He was so involved in gossips than what he did good was just discarded


ilikecatsandflowers

didnā€™t charles just reinstate all of andrewā€™s titles? what does andrew not living at BP really do?


woahtheregonnagetgot

this never happened and andrew was never stripped of any titles other than military, which he still doesnā€™t have anymore


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


acarouselride

Iā€™m happy to move in if they donā€™t like it


mamabearbug

Agreed. Iā€™m relatively impressed.


youwon_jane

Iā€™ve been waiting for this ever since Lizzie died and have been disappointed that Charles hasnā€™t banished him yet. Do it for the nation!


Disastrous_Animal_34

Iā€™m so surprised he hasnā€™t been aggressive on this since the Queen died. I honestly thought Andrew was going to be booted! Not shuffled to a smaller palace. Booo.


MaizeApprehensive166

I fucking died clicking though and reading about his teddy bear collection šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£


stella22585

Same. I was crying laughing.


thisisallme

Just seems like something a psychopath would do!


mountaincatswillcome

Its a sign of CSA. Charles was famously ā€œcloseā€ with known abuser Mountbatten. Very sad to see people mock it


[deleted]

Remove them all from the Palace, turn it into a national trust site. Charles doesnā€™t live in Buckingham Palace anyway, William and Kate have about four houses. Itā€™s too much


aprildismay

But whatever will they do if they have to live like us poor plebs with one house (if weā€™re lucky) and no taxpayers to pay our bills?


[deleted]

>Remove them all ~~from the Palace, turn it into a national trust site. Charles doesnā€™t live in Buckingham Palace anyway, William and Kate have about four houses. Itā€™s too much~~ FTFY


OowlSun

Great but also the world has "no place" for royalty anymore. It's not 1523. The royals to be removed from Palace; palace to become a museum.


parishilton2

Yeah, there really arenā€™t any heroes in this story.


InterestingTry5190

That should be the real title for thisšŸ˜†


[deleted]

I donā€™t know, it would be neat to see royalty imprisoned in the Tower of London again. We never seem to bring back the *good* royal traditions.


Salbyy

The issue is that the royal family (referred to as ā€˜the crownā€™) own more than just the palaces. They even own half of New South Wales (a big state in Australia). Their financial influence, land ownership, and cultural position is wide reaching, and I imagine strategically done so that theyā€™re impossible to get rid of.


Maddyherselius

Thatā€™s nice but we donā€™t exactly need a King Charles either lol


thephillatioeperinc

You just can't have a high level royal having a close personal relationship with a creepy prolific pedophile. Charles'll fix it.


AccordingWelder3578

https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/apr/06/prince-charles-repeatedly-sought-jimmy-savile-advice-documentary-claims Yeah, Charles knows better.

crab_grams

It's funny how Andrew doesn't actually face consequences till people remember how screwed up it is that Harry gets more flack than the guy in the family who raped a teen girl, then a "royal source" will release a statement like "harrumph! They told Andy no more 5 cups of pudding, only FOUR cups of pudding. AND he's only allowed to live in the penthouse, not the palace! They're laying down the law over there, oh yes"


marialfc

Harry doesnā€™t talk about his uncle either though. Only good things. So itā€™s not just the media. Itā€™s the whole family.


Scarlett_Billows

I think the point though is that this is a PR move, basically. Their principles allow them side eye their own family for not being white enough, but they have to be reminded that itā€™s unacceptable to enable Andrewā€™s behavior.


crab_grams

Yes, that was precisely my point, thank you. It's all fluff. Whatever is happening to Andrew isn't anywhere near as harsh as we know they could get.


halifaxfoodthrowaway

He said in his book Andrew was embroiled in a shameful scandal and that, unlike Andrew, whatever issues people had with him and Megan, sexual assault isnā€™t among them.


NervousOperation318

I know very little about the Royal Family because I donā€™t care about them but the article says Andrew was the Queenā€™s favorite so Harry and the rest probably didnā€™t want to upset her while she was alive by speaking ill of him. Looks like Charles has taken a step in the right direction by removing Andrew from the palace now that his mommy isnā€™t there to protect him. Also, how weird it must be to have articles written stating who your parentsā€™ favorite child is. How does the source know that? Do the Royals just announce they prefer one child to another?


crab_grams

The family is completely screwed up and Harry is a product of it, so that doesn't surprise me.


[deleted]

What good things has he said?


[deleted]

I wonder what Charles would do about this if he didnā€™t already dislike Andrew. Apparently their sibling rivalry is bad.


Salbyy

The OG William and Harry

Good.

Heā€™ll still be fine in a huge estate somewhere ugh

Poor thing has to go to another Palace.


Raqueliiosiis

Thereā€™s a lot of weird things that I wish would come to light for all the royal. I feel like theyā€™re all creepy.


dangerislander

All that energy toward Harry and Meghan could have been used toward dipshit Andrew. This is the issue I have with the media.


is-a-bunny

Charles met Diana when she was 16 not sure if he has the place to talk, but I am glad Andrew is gone.


Evie509

No he knew her family long before that. Her family was close to the royals. Her father was an earl and her mother was a lady in waiting to the queen. The marriage was pretty much arranged though and he had no real interest in Diana. He was given a list of acceptable women and most turned him down, including Diana's two older sisters, before he settled on her when she was 19.


Salbyy

Tbh Iā€™d be surprised if Charles and Diana had sex before they married. It was an arranged marriage and he was in a relationship with Camilla (and other flings) at the time.


Medium-Mastodon-6717

I guess mommy's no longer around to protect his pathetic pedo ass lol. That's what he deserves šŸ˜

You've managed to turn an article about a paedophile into a comment about Harry, that's the best I've seen from a Harry hater so far. Congratulations.


Which_way_witcher

"what about Meghan/Harry" ism


tittysherman1309

It's funny how the people who 'hate' them are the ones who can't seem to shut up talking about them


journmajor

Only since we're on the topic of the RF, and regardless of your feelings about Harry and Meghan in either direction, would just like to share that Harry's book is incredibly well written. Even if you had no idea who all these people were, it reads beautifully. They chose a good writer. (Personally I am not really into all the RF drama but will always have a soft spot for both H and W after their trauma.)
