The Andrew formerly known as Prince faces a final humiliation<\/a> \u2014 his brother King Charles plans to strip him of his last honorary rank, Britain\u2019s defense secretary said Sunday.<\/p>\n

The former Duke of York was made a vice admiral in the Royal Navy in 2015 to mark his 55th birthday and kept the title even after being forced to give up his other military positions in 2022 in the wake of the scandal over his alleged close ties to late infamous wealthy pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve seen Andrew surrender the military positions that he\u2019s had, and we\u2019re looking now at the one remaining position he has, which is the honorary vice admiral position, and we\u2019ve got a process under way for that\u201d to be removed, Britain\u2019s defense chief, John Healey, told Sky News.<\/p>\n

Healey said in a later interview with the BBC that King Charles \u201cindicated that\u2019s what he wishes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a move that\u2019s right, it\u2019s a move the king has indicated we should take, and we\u2019re working on that at the moment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Andrew spent 22 years in the Royal Navy and saw active service, serving as a helicopter pilot during the Falklands War.<\/p>\n

He also commanded a mine countermeasures vessel.<\/p>\n

But the 65-year-old is now facing living the rest of his life as a disgraced private citizen after being ordered to give up all his titles<\/a> following discussions with the rest of the royal family.<\/p>\n

Along with his wiped-out title as the Duke of York, he will also no longer go by \u201cPrince\u201d and instead will be known simply as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.<\/p>\n

The late Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s youngest son was already forced to stop using the title His Royal Highness in the wake of a civil case of sexual abuse brought in the US by Epstein trafficking victim Virginia Giuffre.<\/p>\n

In Giuffre\u2019s memoir<\/a>, published posthumously last month, she alleged that she had sex with Andrew three times when she was a teenager after being trafficked by the vile Wall Street tycoon.<\/p>\n

Andrew has always denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

He now has just three months to leave the 30-room property Royal Lodge, where he currently lives along with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, who is also being turfed out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Andrew formerly known as Prince faces a final humiliation \u2014 his brother King Charles plans to strip…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26541,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[15345,6769,9,11,10,486,5878,7542,1076],"class_list":["post-26540","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","tag-jeffrey-epstein","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-royal-family","tag-united-kingdom","tag-virginia-roberts","tag-world-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26540","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=26540"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26540\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26541"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26540"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26540"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
