.... With the prospect of no more title, no charities, no free mansion?

How long before she leaves the ghastly ex to wallow alone in the pile of shit he's created?

@Teado A nightmare job!

Can you imagine how appalling they are? I suspect somewhat unpleasant to clean up after.

Andrew is just trying to negotiate the best deal that he can. I have just watched an interesting interview with Emily Mathis, she says that last Thursday William had a meeting with B&E to get them to put pressure on Andrew to leave RL or he would look into removing their Princess titles - Emily also said that the palace contacted the BBC and ITN news to tell them to be at Windsor at 8pm Thursday evening as there would be some interesting passing traffic, it seems the plan was for KC to visit Andrew on his way home from the airport after his visit to Rome but the BBC went a bit overboard and sent a load of journalists and a helicopter so the Palace got cold feet and cancelled the visit.

I don't think its a good look if KC gives into Andrew's demands.

Yes, she's always been greedy and grasping, crass and boorish.

Princess Michael of Kent was absolutely accurate in her judgement of Fergie, although she was criticised for it at the time.

CatrionaBalfour · 27/10/2025 21:11

Interesting. They would just hate the Princess titles to go.

ShenandoahRiver · 27/10/2025 21:23

@NewGirlInTown
It was Princess Margaret who criticised Sarah Ferguson.

ThatCalmFinch · 27/10/2025 21:24

So if Sarah and Andrew remarried would that make her Princess Andrew of Mountbatten-Windsor??

ShenandoahRiver · 27/10/2025 21:24

I’m not sure it’s a good look for William to be blackmailing his cousins.

It’s a better look than anything A and S have done.

He has to use whatever leverage he can. Don’t blame him one bit. They may well lose them at some point anyway.

I think if I were them, I’d ditch the tarnished titles myself!

If they remarried she'd be Princess Andrew. They don't use surnames and Prince/Princess titles at the same time.

Technically she'd be HRH Duchess of York as it's still technically his title, but they'd be known as Prince and Princess Andrew with no "of ...." used after.

I suspect given William and Kate don't have live in staff, they don't see a need for other minor or ex Royals to have live in staff either.

I wonder what the plan is for Royal lodge?
Open to public for a nosy round or hotel?

If Andrew leaves royal Lodge they'll get a tenant in to take it over. There are always rich folks looking to live in the houses and apartments the crown estate leases out.

She owns a nice house in Notting Hill doesn't she? She has also made a chunk of money from her books. I think she's been subsidising Andrew.

Middlechild3 · 27/10/2025 22:07

Umy15r03lcha1 · 26/10/2025 22:14

Was about to mention that. She only owned it for 5 minutes. Where did she get the money to buy such an expensive place? Is she money laundering?

She's a successful author.

Absolutely! Ffs they must know what Pa's been up to. William is only trying to clean up the stables.

Oh i don't know, KC was born Prince Charles of Edinburgh. As was Princess Anne of Edinburgh

But Andrew and Edward both appear to have just been Prince Andrew and Prince Edward

I imagine if Sarah and Andrew remarried she'd become Princess Andrew.

But that’s different. Mountbatten-Windsor is a surname not a title.

And Elizabeth was Queen when A and E were born.

I think their names change with succession shifts, marriage titles etc.Wm was born Wales, then Cambridge, now he's Wales again.

The queen was duchess of Edinburgh when Charles and Anne were born, then queen when Andrew and Edward were born so Edinburgh was dropped.

Must cost them a fortune in stationery and coats of arms.

years ago yes. Her success as an author is much more recent.

Edited

I guessed thats why the 'of Edinburgh' bit was dropped.
Although I think they all have tons of titles they don't actually use.

The Queen, being married to Duke of Edinburgh, also held Duchess of E, hence Edward couldnt get DoE until she died, or you'd end up with two Duchesses of Edinburgh

emilysquest · 27/10/2025 23:53

All these made-up nonsense "titles" are completely irrelevant now (yes they may have had currency in the past). Old buildings and monuments yes, very interesting. All this nonsense about some humans being more worthy of admiration, deference or privilege than others due the accident of their birth, total tosh. (Same for skin colour, nationality or any other division).
