Until last Thursday, Elizabeth was hesitant to strip her son of his military and royal titles. According to the source, she did not want to interfere in the case against the Duke of York. That changed, however, when it turned out that the judge in America allowed Virginia Giuffre to continue with the lawsuit she filed against Andrew.
According to the source, Elizabeth has taken measures because it is impossible for Andrew to resume his public life, even if he is acquitted. His name will never be cleared, Buckingham Palace believes.
The queen is said to have been guided by Prince Charles, Andrew’s older brother. He allegedly urged his mother to take action. According to Charles, it is unacceptable for a member of the royal family to use a title in court to defend himself against such serious allegations. Despite the fact that Elizabeth agrees with Charles, she still has the whole issue in her stomach. The source says to Daily Mail that Elizabeth is deeply saddened.
