Prince Andrew’s Daughters Flee UK After He’s Stripped of Land and Titles: …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

On Thursday, King Charles shocked the world when he stripped Prince Andrew of his land and titles as a result of sexual assault allegations.

Andrew had already offered to vacate his titles as a compromise measure.

But apparently, that wasn’t enough for Charles, who opted to essentially remove Andrew from the royal family.

The former prince will now go by his full legal name of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

Andrew’s daughters leave UK amid father’s scandal

Andrew’s two daughters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, will be permitted to keep their titles.

But it seems that they’ve wisely decided to take a break from the UK as their father’s scandal continues to make international headlines.

According to a new report from Page Six, the sisters recently took separate trips out of the country, and it’s unclear when they intend to return.

Eugenie was reportedly spotted on a girls’ trip to Paris.

Meanwhile, Beatrice has removed herself from the situation even further, and is currently attending the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

It’s unclear if these trips were planned before news of their father’s demotion came down.

But whatever the case, the sisters are probably happy to be very far from London at the moment.

Charles takes nuclear option to address his ‘Andrew problem’

The issue of Andrew’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged sex crimes has been haunting the royal family for years.

In April, Andrew’s accuser, Virginia Giuffre, took her own life at the age of 41. Her memoir was published posthumously this month, but it’s not clear if that factored into Charles’ decision.

“His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement Thursday.

“These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him.

“Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse,” the statement continued.

The titles of Prince, Duke of York, Earl of Inverness, Baron Killyleagh and “His Royal Highness” have now been vacated by Andrew, along with the honors of his Order of the Garter and Knight Grand Cross of the Victorian Order.

Andrew will reportedly make arrangements to relocate to a residence on the private Sandringham estate.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
