A recent survey has shown that a significant majority of Britons support stripping Prince Andrew of his royal titles due to his controversial ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The Duke of York has faced mounting public backlash since his association with Epstein came to light, culminating in a legal settlement with Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual abuse—claims he has consistently denied.
Public Outrage Grows
According to the poll, conducted by a leading research firm, over 70% of respondents believe Prince Andrew should no longer retain his royal privileges. Many argue that his continued status as a working royal damages the monarchy's reputation.
"The public has spoken," said one political analyst. "This isn’t just about legal guilt—it’s about upholding the integrity of the Crown."
Palace Under Pressure
Buckingham Palace has remained tight-lipped on the matter, but insiders suggest senior royals are privately discussing the Duke’s future. King Charles III, who has sought to modernise the monarchy, may face a difficult decision.
Key findings from the poll:
- 72% of Brits support removing Prince Andrew’s titles.
- Only 15% believe he should retain them.
- 13% remain undecided.
The controversy shows no signs of fading, with campaigners urging the Palace to act swiftly to restore public trust.
