Andrew Mountbatten Windsor had one of Queen Elizabeth’s<\/a> most trusted advisors kicked out after he warned the late-monarch about her son, a source has claimed.<\/p>\n

Lord Christopher Geidt had worked as the late-Queen’s private secretary for 10 years before he was forced to leave the Palace. Sources have claimed Geidt exited the royal household in 2017 after warning the monarch about her second son’s <\/a>alleged business dealings with Russian oligarchs and how that would impact the family as a whole.<\/p>\n

This comes after a new bombshell report claimed Russian spymasters targeted Andrew<\/a> through his association with Jeffrey Epstein<\/a> in a bid to drill into the British establishment. Andrew <\/a>has vehemently denied all allegations against him.<\/p>\n

Lord Christopher Geidt was kicked out of the Palace in 2017 but two years later – by which time he had entered the House of Lords – he was allegedly contacted by informants who warned him about Andrew and his alleged connection to oligarchs. Sources have claimed the late-Queen’s former private secretary already knew about these worries and had attempted to flag this to Buckingham Palace<\/a> years before, according to the Daily Mail<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A source claimed: “He said that he would pass on the information to his old colleagues at the Palace, but that he had long been aware of these issues and he had attempted to raise them before, ‘But the Queen just doesn’t want to know’. It seems clear that Andrew played a role in his departure in 2017.”<\/p>\n

This comes after a report from US security services issued earlier this year made claims that Andrew was targeted by Russians. This report alleges that the ex-prince “has a long-standing hatred of his brother Charles, who he sees as weak”.<\/p>\n

The documents, seen by the Daily Mail<\/a>, were reportedly issued by on January 15, with the title: “Political Corruption: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor” and sub heading “Designated Russian Union”.<\/p>\n

The report also claimed that Andrew was being regarded as a “useful idiot” and a “weak link” by agents from Putin’s nation. It supposedly added that Andrew was picked by Russian spies as part of a push that would “facilitate them conducting both intelligence and corruption operations within both the UK and the EU and the wider world<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

Andrew was arrested by Norfolk Police last week on suspicion of misconduct in public office and later released under investigation – after he was held in a police station for 11 hours on his 66th birthday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the late-Queen’s top and closest advisors, Sir Christopher Geidt, was allegedly kicked out of the Palace…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":149215,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[15345,9,24,63,122,124,123,1245],"class_list":["post-149214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news","tag-the-queen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149214","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149214"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149214\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/149215"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149214"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149214"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149214"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
