Prince Andrew: How Tragic for His Mother
He thought he knew best in responding to the Epstein scandal — and now he’s paying the price.
by Robert Taylor
January 20, 2022, 10:57 PM

Who’d have thought a 95-year-old woman, who’s just lost her husband of seven decades, could be so utterly ruthless? Who could know she’d stand ready to desert her favorite child? And who could imagine that she would put her business — “The Firm,” as she calls it — ahead of her nearest and dearest?

Okay, she might be the Queen, but even so her son Andrew must feel he’s been kicked hard by his own mother, right between the legs, just when he’s friendless and the whole world is denouncing him. She’s stripped off his military titles and royal patronages and instructed that he will no longer be called His Royal Highness. He’s no longer a working Royal, and a range of charities and trusts have cut their ties with him. Even his Twitter page has been deleted. Like a peacock, each of his colorful feathers are being ripped out, one by one, in full, painful, public view.

And all of this is despite the fact that he hasn’t, as yet, been found guilty of anything.

Sage of Montecito Speaks: Prince Harry Has Advice on Handling ‘Hard Days, Burnout, and Bad Stuff’
Simon Kent
4 Feb 2022

Prince Harry used a virtual summit Friday to open up about his personal feelings, sharing how he dealt with “burnout” and once felt like he was “getting to the very end of everything that I had” as life’s travails closed in on his Royal progress.

The multi-millionaire also urged employers to grant staff more time off, pleading firms should “give everyone time to focus on themselves” away from the demands of the working day.

The Duke of Sussex, 37, made the comments alongside tennis star Serena Williams with his palatial $15 million Montecito, California, mansion providing a backdrop.

The pair were hosted by BetterUp, the San Francisco mental health start-up he joined last year as self-described Chief Impact Officer, as Breitbart News reported.

In the exchange, Harry lamented he was “literally getting to the very end of everything that I had, any fuel or any steam in the engine just like I was burning the candle at both ends,” continuing his personal habit of constantly sharing his inner thoughts with the world while pleading for privacy. ...

Queen Elizabeth II announces Camilla as future 'Queen' when Prince Charles takes the throne

Quote

Queen Elizabeth II wants Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, to be known as "Queen" when Prince Charles takes the throne, she announced on Saturday.

"When, in the fullness of time, my son Charles becomes King, I know you will give him and his wife Camilla the same support you have given me; and it is my sincere wish that, when the time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort as she continues her own loyal service," she said in a statement released on the eve of her Platinum Jubilee, marking 70 years since she ascended the throne in 1952.

That means Camilla would be known as "Queen Camilla." It was previously unclear if she would receive the title.

Queen Elizabeth backs Camilla as ‘Queen Consort’ in surprise statement

By Eileen AJ Connelly (NY Post)
February 5, 2022

It looks like Camilla will be “Queen” after all.

In a surprise statement the day before her Platinum Jubilee, Queen Elizabeth II said she supports calling her son’s second wife “Queen Consort” when he takes the throne.

The 95-year-old monarch gave the shocking nod in a letter written from Sandringham House, the palace where she hosted a reception ahead of the 70th anniversary of her accession to the throne on Saturday.

The majority of the letter involves thanking her subjects and remarking on the progress made during her reign, but near the end, she dropped a bomb.

The English monarch's outfits are legendary. A coat with a weighted hem — to prevent wind-related wardrobe malfunctions — topped off with a perfectly matched hat. Her go-to accessory is often her signature black bag, that is roomy enough for lipstick, reading glasses, mints and a handkerchief.

Prince Charles 'tells brother Andrew to 'stay out of the line of sight' and BANISHES him from Windsor Castle' as he faces Virginia Giuffre sex trial in US

Prince Andrew hasn't been seen near castle since being stripped of military roles
He could be turned out of Royal Lodge when Charles becomes King, it is claimed
A royal source told The Sun that 'Charles wants Andrew out of the line of sight'
It follows Andrew's ex-massage therapist alleging he was a 'constant sex pest'

By Katie Weston For Mailonline

Published: 04:59 EST, 12 February 2022 | Updated: 05:01 EST, 12 February 2022

Prince Charles has told Andrew to stay out of the line of sight and could banish him from Windsor Castle ahead of his sex case trial in New York, according to reports.

The Prince of Wales, 73, is said to have felt deceived after his brother assured him three years ago the rumours surrounding his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, and paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein would go away.

The Duke of York, 61, hasn't been spotted near the castle since being stripped of his prestigious honorary military roles by the Queen last month.

And he could even be turned out of the Royal Lodge, where he lives with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, and Windsor itself when Charles takes over as King, it is claimed.

The revelations follow Andrew's former massage therapist alleging the royal was a 'constant sex pest' who 'absolutely wanted more' when she massaged him.

Emma Gruenbaum, 50, claimed the Duke tried to hug her after massage sessions at the Royal Lodge and always insisted on being naked apart from a towel.

It doesn't hide a damned thing from prosecutors. It hides it from the public, yes, but I was under the impression that private parties are allowed to agree between themselves to respect their private affairs. I wasn't aware that the public's prurient interest in other people's private affairs was a legitimate reason for overriding those people's privacy.

Whatever he is, you, presumably, are a conservative/republican, so why are you trying to stick your nose into other peoples' private business?

And if you have evidence that proves he was involved in human trafficking of minors, why are you sitting on it and not disclosing it to the police?

Finally, as I said before, a settlement agreement doesn't hide bumpkus from the police or the prosecutors - they are just as much at liberty to investigate and subpoena as they were before; perhaps they aren't because such evidence doesn't exist.

I don't like it when wealthy people buy their way out of shared values or shared sacrifice.

Just because someone has the wealth to "buy carbon offsets for their private jets", "buy the silence of their victims", or "afford the best lawyers" does not make their behavior right.

Randy Andy sexually assaulted an underage girl, not an adult woman legally capable of consent. That's what makes it a public matter, no different than the Catholic Church child sexual abuse scandals.

Persons and institutions of wealth and power have used a culture of silence prevent them from being held accountable for crimes against children, and other vulnerbale persons.

Rape of a minor is not a private matter, whether perpetrated by a member of NAMBLA or by a member the British Royal Family.
