The blazing row between King Charles and Prince Andrew over royal titles

There was a ‘desk-punching’ row between the pair

King Charles and Prince Andrew are certainly not close these days and details have emerged of a huge row they had over the King’s idea to remove Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice’s royal titles.

This came long before Prince Harry and Prince William were the two primary warring parties in the British Royal Family.

In 2008, details of Andrew’s close friendship with Jeffrey Epstein were not yet known and his older brother Charles had an idea to streamline the operation of the monarchy.

“Charles floated the idea that several Windsor offspring be demoted, stripped of their HRH standing, have their royal protection taken away, and, most revolutionary of all, kicked off the royal payroll,” Christopher Andersen, author of “The King,” told Fox News Digital.

“Prince Andrew fought these proposals that would have resulted in his daughters Beatrice and Eugenie each being forced to earn their own living and downgraded from ‘Princess’ to ‘Lady,’ a suggestion that was shouted down in an angry confrontation between him and Charles,” Andersen said.

Andrew was far from happy
As Andersen goes on to explain, Andrew threw quite the fit at this proposal.

“By all accounts, it was a literal battle Royale, a desk-pounding shouting match between the two brothers, both known for their volatile tempers,” Andersen claimed.

“Keep in mind that this was years before Andrew’s involvement in the Jeffrey Epstein sex abuse scandal essentially forced the king to put Andrew out to pasture.”

Andersen also thinks that Charles had good reason to start thinking about the future of the family and what needs to change.

“In 2006, Prince William joined the Way Ahead Group, his grandmother Queen Elizabeth’s tight-knit circle of family and anonymous advisers whose whole purpose was to chart a future course for the monarchy,” Andersen explained.

“Its members included Charles and his siblings Anne, Andrew, Edward, and, of course, the queen. Details of the group’s twice-yearly meetings were top secret.

“The queen’s decisions to voluntarily pay income taxes, to mothball the royal yacht HMS Britannia, and to end primogeniture – the thousand-year-old old rule stipulating that males have precedence over females in the line of succession – all grew out of Way Ahead Group deliberations.

“Although Prince Harry was then third in line to the throne, he was not invited to join. By 2008, deliberations focused on future King Charles’ vision of a more efficient, streamlined monarchy.”
