Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor<\/a> is said to have been dealt a \u201cbitter blow\u201d<\/a> after his latest fall from grace, as the former Duke has practically lost \u201ceverything,\u201d a royal expert has claimed. King Charles\u2019s disgraced brother saw his titles and honours vanish last year, after new details about his links to convicted paedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, emerged.<\/p>\n

The ex-prince is said to be moving to a home within the King\u2019s Sandringham estate, while his former wife, Sarah Ferguson, has not confirmed any new premises she may move into.<\/p>\n

Now, a royal expert has weighed in on Andrew\u2019s situation and said it is unlikely there will be any way back for him, following the latest furore.<\/p>\n

Royal commentator Jennie Bond told the Mirror<\/a>: \u201cThrough thick and thin, through lurid headlines, sickening allegations and embarrassing revelations, the York family \u2013 as they were \u2013 have stuck together.<\/p>\n

\u201cAndrew and Fergie were the \u201cbestest friends\u201c and their girls were staunchly loyal to them.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut now, it seems, everything has changed. The happiest divorced couple in the world are apparently going their separate ways \u2013 and at least one of their daughters is questioning whether she can maintain a relationship with her disgraced father.\u201c<\/p>\n

Ms Bond added that it was \u201cextremely telling\u201d that Andrew\u2019s daughters chose to spend Christmas with the royals.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cThat must have been very hurtful for Andrew and Sarah: their daughters were showing the world exactly where their loyalties lie.\u201d<\/p>\n

The expert concluded: \u201cFor Andrew, an estrangement from either of his daughters will be a bitter blow. His family was pretty much all he had left after all that has happened.<\/p>\n

“Now he\u2019s looking more isolated than ever. Family rifts are incredibly complex and hurtful, but sometimes time can heal them.<\/p>\n

“For now, though, it seems that Eugenie is set on keeping her distance from her father and living her own life.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is said to have been dealt a \u201cbitter blow\u201d after his latest fall from grace, as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":251475,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[20251,146008,146007,146010,79487,122393,156,111,139,69,18318,146009,61419,77025,31838,15853,101819],"class_list":{"0":"post-251474","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-andrew","9":"tag-andrew-blow","10":"tag-andrew-latest","11":"tag-andrew-mounbatten-windsor","12":"tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","13":"tag-andrew-news","14":"tag-entertainment","15":"tag-new-zealand","16":"tag-newzealand","17":"tag-nz","18":"tag-prince-andrew","19":"tag-prince-andrew-blow","20":"tag-prince-andrew-news","21":"tag-princess-beatrice","22":"tag-princess-eugenie","23":"tag-royal-news","24":"tag-royal-scandal"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/251474","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=251474"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/251474\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/251475"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=251474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=251474"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=251474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
