According to the defense secretary, the government is “working to remove” Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s final honorary military title at the King’s request. King Charles had “indicated that’s what he wishes,” according to John Healey.
After resigning his other military posts in 2022, Andrew, who was deprived of his princely title on Thursday, kept his position as a Vice Admiral in the Royal Navy. Healey stated on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg on the BBC: “This is a move that’s right, it’s a move the King said we should take and we’re concentrating on that at present.
After decades in the spotlight as a prince and military hero, Andrew has now experienced a significant decline in popularity. During the Falklands War, the King’s younger brother flew helicopters throughout his 22-year career in the Royal Navy. He was also in charge of HMS Cottesmore, a mine countermeasures ship. After months of pressure over his connections to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, he lost his last royal titles and privileges this week. Andrew has consistently denied any misconduct.
