Just after body language expert Judi James dismantled the almost palpable “awkwardness” shown by Princes William and Andrew at the Duchess of Kent’s funeral, royal biographer Andrew Lownie has come forward.
The author of the book entitled The Rise and Fall of the House of York has just given more information on this side of the Prince of Wales which he describes as “ruthless”.
According to the expert, not only is Prince William the future king of England, but he already enjoys great influence within the royal family.
So much so that he became “the driving force behind the royal family’s decision to ostracize Andrew.” Additionally, “now William is starting to take the lead” in a number of other areas as well due to King Charles’ battle with cancer.
For those who don’t know him, Prince Andrew has already renounced the public use of his titles and honors and currently only retains the title “Prince”.
According to the Daily mail, following this, Prince William became “much more ruthless than his father and I think he can see the enormous damage to his reputation.”
“One of the reasons for this timing is that people are starting to criticize the king for being too weak. I think they realized they had to do something.”
What is pertinent to mention is that requests are also being made to Parliament to take permanent action on this issue.
The SNP’s Westminster leader, Stephen Flynn, believes, for example, that “if the Westminster parties remain stubbornly slow to remove Prince Andrew’s titles, the SNP will do everything possible to force them to act.”
According to The guardian he also said: “Prince Andrew’s titles can only be removed by an Act of Parliament. Therefore, this SNP motion is a way of putting pressure on the UK Labor Government to bring forward this legislation immediately.”
“The only real question is what Keir Starmer’s government expects. The public knows it is the right thing to do, and more importantly, the victims at the heart of the Epstein scandal know it is the right thing to do. It must be done without any further excuses or further delays.”
