Prince William subtly showed his intentions towards Andrew during one of their last public appearances.
The Prince of Wales and future king was visibly irritated with his estranged uncle at the funeral of the Duchess of Kent earlier this year.
Citing the Daily Mail’s royal editor Rebecca English, royal expert Richard Eden notes a shocking moment between the two.
Speaking on the Daily Mail Royals YouTube channel, he said: “His jaw dropped when Andrew tried to converse with William on the steps of Westminster Cathedral.”
Eden continued: “This frosty exchange made headlines, but for me it was the precise moment we saw William’s intention to oust Andrew in the coming weeks.”
“After the funeral, Andrew could be seen whispering a few words to William, who appeared to refuse to engage in the conversation and only gave a brief nod in response,” he noted.
