News banner from the Torygraph saying Andrew and Sarah are losing their titles. They will be ‘put into Abeyance’ Andrew also to lose the Order of the Garter. Sarah will be known as Sarah Ferguson, he retains ‘Prince’ as he is the son of HM QE2.

bloody good job !

I just wish the Sussex pair would have their Duke and Duchess titles taken away from them too.

Why, did they both accept money and favours from a convicted paedophile and still support and remain in contact with said paedophile after he was jailed?

Im keen on her, she should have more of a role but then she also has had her moments, didnt she have a few speeding incidents and her dog attacked someone?

Not in the same league of course.

Her dog killed one of the Queen's corgis but I'd still back her every day!

I have it reserved on Borrow Box, but it's going to take a while to get it!

I really need to find out WHY they needed to grift so badly. If the answer is in the book, I can't wait to read all about it.

It is honestly a good read. My DH got it for me online and I was absolutely gobsmacked by it.

The reasons for them being like this? Because they could.

I was impressed with the 250 sources all named. It was like opening a floodgate, people were prepared to stand by what they said.

Well his statement says he wont use them...so technically he hasnt lost them. Give it another dexade and he will stsrt using them again when its all died down

He won’t. This is The End. Thought you would be happy?!

SpottyAardvark · 17/10/2025 18:51

The Torygraph wouldn’t be going big on this story if they hadn’t been briefed by very good sources. Andrew obviously had this coming, but it’s a gentle slap on the wrist in comparison with what he has coming when William becomes King. By all accounts, William can’t stand his uncle & will be quite happy to throw him to the wolves.

Do you mean the Daily Telegraph?

There are two types of Garter Knight. The Royal appointees aren't part of the main list, which is limited iirc to 24. Hence why he doesn't appear on it i think.

I really could use my brain for better things than obscure knowledge like that but I find it weirdly fascinating.

On Wiki, if you look, there are categories and I cannot see PA in any of them.

It’s a bad situation, Harry and Megan out, Andrew and Sarah out. Beatrice and Eugenie non working . Edward does sod all. Sophie does a bit, Anne does a lot, none of their kids working royals either, it’s a small group of working royals, until the Wales’s kids grow up, marry and have kids,

What is it that needs to be done?

Other countries manage perfectly well with just one head of state, who may also have governing duties, and ribbons are still cut and charities still have patrons.

notacooldad · 17/10/2025 20:52

He’s been faithful to all intents for well over 20 years!,
Well thats alright then! 😆

It means you are wrong. The King is not an adulterer since his current marriage!

Thedom · 17/10/2025 21:25

Wouldn’t be surprised if he remarries Sarah and she becomes a Princess.

I agree with those who say he got pushed, it’s a bit like the CEO’s who announce they are ‘leaving for family reasons’ or ‘to pursue other interests’.

jumpingthehighjump · 17/10/2025 21:09

That pales into insignificance compared to Andrew and Sarah. And it was not making fun of her. Just your take on it

Seriously

Harry and Meghan have only been on the scene as a couple for around 5 years and have caused mayhem for the RF, it will be interesting to see what comes out about these two when they have been around for as long as Andrew and Sarah. Andrew Lownie is already on the case of investigating shady Soho House and it’s royal connections, lets give it a few more years before we compare the two couples.

I bet he and Fergie are holed up in that lodge mansion thing they live in, drinking and screaming abuse at each other. They more than likely know all sorts of awful things about each other, i doubt that half the stuff they got up to made the pages of "Entitled" . Would not put it past Fergie to do a real tell all book on the royals, after all, she literally has nothing left to lose and is always short of cash

He doesn’t drink!

jumpingthehighjump · 17/10/2025 21:11

You honestly need to read the Entitled book. It was completely and utterly gobsmacking.
I have never read anything like this grifting couple. Schmoozing anyone who would pay out, bankruptcies, trying to get money from anyone whoever they were (Epstein), not paying small traders anyone from hairdressers to personal trainers. It was honestly disgusting and it went on for decades

It's jaw dropping stuff, they (especially Sarah) have burnt their way through millions. So many examples of utter waste, money on fortune tellers, a retainer of £67K p.a for a personal trainer she never used, the nightly spreads of beef, lamb and chicken which she sometimes spurned and snacked on (posh) crisps instead, it is an astounding cataloge of greed and profligate spending .

MrsLeonFarrell · 17/10/2025 21:09

He clearly had status and he was clearly leveraging his remaining proximity to the King to obtain funding so he couldn't be removed from Royal Lodge.

Just because he is a sleaze doesn't mean he had no status, unfortunately many many people in power have done as much or worse than Andrew and still have status. Unfortunately power and status doesn't require moral probity.

Your view of status is different to mine, which is not related to Royal Lodge, whatever that is.

He doesn’t drink!

one vice he doesn't have! and he might well have a drink tonight to try and cope with the stress,

Tiredofbullsit · 17/10/2025 21:33

MasterBeth · 17/10/2025 21:04

I find this kind of post unfathomable.

The man was a dirty sleazeball yesterday and is a dirty sleazeball today.

"It removes him from any remaining status."

Anyone who believed this creep had any status yesterday isn't thinking for themselves and is beholden to the medieval royalist bullshit.

It is technically correct that he still held the status whether you think it “unfathomable”
or not. That’s his humiliation, that as of today, the perceived status has gone

We're talking decades now. Nothing like Harry & Meghan.

HRTFT but an important aspect of this for me at least is that in a lawless world of a loss of respect for the rule of law someone is demonstrating that actually yes, actions do have consequences. Andrew - that’s all he is now - is a nasty pervert who sold his country down the line, sexually predated on young girls the age of his daughters, lied, cheated, lied again, then lied some more, sold access to state properties and public figures, lied yet again (and that’s all I can be bothered to type out, there’s a lot, lot more): and now his chickens are starting to come home to roost. Whatever underhand - and they will be underhand because he had no legitimate means to earn all he’s amassed - dealings he had to become as disgustingly rich as he is will inevitably become at least partially known. He chose the wrong people to do badly by. He’s an arrogant, stupid, thick, entitled man who is too unintelligent to know his place in the world. Nasty piece of human.

Yes. This.

Every name of any company who they could attach themselves to, they did. It was quite revolting.

I thought he'd already lost his titles. Obviously I pay close attention to thenews about disgraced Royals!

He lost HRH in 2022

Agree. What is so sad and worrying is the fact it took decades to come to this. What does that mean?

Doing what, on the tills at B and Q, rounding up stray trollies at Asda in all weathers? Cutting ribbons, shaking hands with us common folk and saying "what do you do?" is hardly back breaking onerous stuff

Come back to me when you’re in your 80s!

Edward does NOT do “sod all”!!

Lol.
He failed at the army.
Failed in the arts.
He's probably gay and forced to marry.
And now he steals millions from the taxpayer and gets his taxpayer-funded staff to sort out a few charitable engagements for him so gullible fools think he's working.
Are you sure he's worth several hundred nurses, a thousand carers....

Mariannany · 17/10/2025 21:39

Don't know if it's already been mentioned but Cheere Denise is reading Entitled on YouTube. Shocking stuff.

I have a vision of Princess Anne finally losing patience, getting on the blower to Andrew and giving him a bollocking, and telling him to agree to lose the titles etc for the sake of his King, and the memory of his beloved mother.
Who could resist her when she lays it out straight? 😂

If that’s true, it’s taken her a while…..
