Andrew has been left devastated by the latest incident which has caused major problems for the royal family amid their security talks.
The 66-year-old former prince was reportedly horrified by the threat from the masked man, raising eyebrows over his safety.
However, experts warn that the increased security will draw backlash from the British, who have already increased pressure on the king and the royal family to take decisive action against the disgraced king, even though the monarch has already stripped him of his royal tiles and patronages.
His exit from the royal box somehow triggered a serious threat to the former Duke of York’s safety.
Norfolk Police arrested Alex Jenkinson, 39, who has since been charged and pleaded not guilty to stalking offences.
Alex Jenkinson, 39, of Stowmarket, Suffolk, has since been charged with two counts of using threatening, abusive or insulting words, officials said.
A royal expert explained Andrew’s situation after the latest breach, saying: “The recent frightening confrontation between a masked man has left him shaken and worried for his safety.”
The unexpected situation prompted an urgent meeting at the Palace to ensure Andrew’s safety.
“There are rumors that he wants his old security guard back, even though he was left unharmed,” Helena Chard told British broadcaster and photographer. Fox News Digital.
His private protection agent handled the confrontation and its aftermath. Fences, CCTV and a security gate have also been installed at Sarah Ferguson’s ex-husband’s property to ensure his safety.
Royal broadcaster Ian Pelham Turner has revealed that the monarch “part funds his private security team”.
Fortunately, “a member of his paid private security team was with him” at the time of the incident, arguing that the security team “may need to be beefed up to increase their security.”
“Personally, every British citizen should feel safe and protected, especially high-profile figures, and Andrew should therefore be given more protection, otherwise more attempts could be made on his life, causing distress and disarray within the royal family,” he said.
However, Fordwihich believes that “this is completely normal because the public is absolutely disgusted by his despicable behavior.”
“Instead of wanting more security, he should really stay in some sort of house arrest, stay alone and not even go out. Then he wouldn’t have to face the public and have these concerns. That would be the decent thing to do, but he’s not known for doing decent things.”
Chard admitted that Andrew’s “ties to Epstein, his arrest and the police investigation have made him a target”, but said “many believe he is more than adequately protected privately”.
Reviewing Beatrice and Eugenie Prize security is one thing, but talk of reinstating armed protection for the Met Police is already generating public backlash, and understandably so, according to Chard.
“In reality, his security status will not change. That ship has sailed. And if it did, the public and Prince Harry would almost certainly have something to say about it. The security debate will come up from time to time. Andrew will continue to sleep with one eye open,” the expert asserted.
