King Charles III has formally stripped his brother, Prince Andrew, of his remaining royal titles — a move widely seen as an effort to protect the monarchy’s reputation amid ongoing scandal.
The decision means the Duke of York will now be known simply as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
The action comes as new details emerge about Andrew’s long-criticized ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and as questions mount over his rent-free residence at a country estate near Windsor Castle.
While Buckingham Palace has declined to comment, royal watchers say the move reinforces King Charles’ message that “no one is bigger than the monarchy.”
