A new claim about the royal family is drawing attention. A source says that Queen Camilla and ex-Prince Andrew have grown closer in recent months. However, they suggest that the motive goes beyond just friendship or family. According to the source, the bond could “come in very handy” for the Queen and may help protect King Charles at a vulnerable time.
Queen Camilla and Ex-Prince Andrew’s alliance ‘come in very handy for her,’ per source
Heat World reported that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, 67, is taking legal action against Thames Valley Police. He is disputing the search warrants that allowed officers to search his homes earlier this year. For context, he was arrested in February on suspicion of gross misconduct in public office.
Now, the source claims that in a notable shift, Queen Camilla has also offered some support. The outlet describes her relationship with Andrew as strained for years. It cites reports that he did not consider her “aristocratic enough” to marry King Charles before their 2005 wedding.
Andrew was stripped of his titles and evicted from Royal Lodge last year. Since then, he has reportedly worked behind the scenes to improve things with Camilla. The source said, “Camilla is always looking out of herself and there’s no denying that an alliance with Andrew could soon come in very handy for her. That is bound to be a big motivator for her, though she’d never admit to that.”
Additionally, Sarah Ferguson, Andrew’s ex-wife, recently returned to the UK after months away. Reports have suggested she could release a tell-all, but her team said there is “no memoir” currently in the works. Still, the source claims Queen Camilla sees keeping ex-Prince Andrew close as a way to protect King Charles. “Camilla feels that is only wise, since it will mean he’s less likely to come after them all with some nasty tell-all, that is the last thing they need,” they said.
The source added, “She is by no means making excuses for Andrew but she is reminding her husband that he’s got the potential to do real damage and should be handled accordingly for the sake of the monarchy and for their own legacies.”
