Prince Andrew’s biographer - disgraced Duke of York should face trial | The Daily T

Video Description

Following the news that Prince Andrew is to give up his titles and honours, after more damaging headlines about the extent of his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and the publication of Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir, Andrew Lownie, the Prince’s biographer, joins Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley in the studio on today’s edition of The Daily T. Lownie tells Camilla and Tim that he believes Prince William drove the move to Andrew relinquish his titles, in an attempt at damage control ahead of more potentially embarrassing revelations. He claims that it’s “too little, too late” and that he should have been stripped of his titles by parliamentary act if necessary, as “nothing much has actually changed”. He also explains how the Prince’s links to the Chinese spy scandal may have played a role in the decision, claiming his behaviour over the years can be explained by a childhood in which he was “shown no boundaries and no discipline”. Lownie also says the “huge reputational damage to the Monarchy” caused by Prince Andrew means this is the biggest royal crisis since the abdication of Edward VIII. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/customer/subscribe/digitalsub/3for1/?WT.mc_id=tmgoff_pvid_conversion-subscription_editorial-iniative_03-22_EGW-13_organic_youtube ► Get the latest headlines: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/ ► Sign up to the Telegraph's free new daily newsletter, From the Editor, bringing you the latest news, features and analysis from the Telegraph newsroom: https://telegraph.co.uk/customer/secure/newsletter/from-the-editor/ #PrinceAndrew #RoyalFamily #JeffreyEpstein #VirginiaGiuffre #AndrewLownie #TheDailyT #CamillaTominey #TimStanley #PrinceWilliam #RoyalScandal #BritishRoyals #Monarchy #BuckinghamPalace #RoyalCrisis #EdwardVIII #UKNews #RoyalTitles #ReputationCrisis #RoyalDrama #EpsteinScandal
