Prince Andrew's mini rage over a speed bump may cost him a roof over his head!
The royal reportedly conducted himself in an unruly manner towards a construction worker on the palace grounds, and now he has stepped on King Charles' toes.
Prince Andrew has faced several threats of removal from the royal family due to his strained relationship with the King and his alleged infuriating actions for years.
Prince Andrew Went Off On A Worker Installing Traffic Control Measures
The Prince was reportedly out on his routine horse rides around the Windsor Great Park estate, which spanned across 4,800-acre and falls under Charles' jurisdiction as Ranger of the park.
Andrew has resided at the Royal Lodge for over two decades despite the disgraceful removal of his royal privileges due to his Jeffrey Epstein.
However, Andrew has seemingly been displeased with the speed bump along his driving route from his expansive mansion, which always keeps his raving speed in check every time.
The king brother's existing anger over the bump probably fueled his most recent outrage as soon as he saw a worker placing traffic humps on another section of the estate. Per RadarOnline, he reportedly screamed from his horse, asking "what the f-ck" the worker was doing.
The Prince's Antics Have Struck King Charles' Last Nerves
Unfortunately, Andrew's 30-room mansion inside the royal lodge is far from luxurious and is a man-made condition caused by his nonchalance. A source near the palace noted that the building is gradually deteriorating, with Andrew ignoring about $700,000 worth of repairs.
The king has reached out to the disgraced Prince over the situation, urging him to take action and put the estate in shape, but Andrew could care less or take matters into his own hands to fix things.
Charles is reportedly furious he lashed out at royal staff, and thinks he is a very "entitled id-ot" who would lose his home very soon. Insiders call this phase the "siege of Royal Lodge" as Charles could evict him any minute now.
Sources have spoken on the volatile nature of Andrew towards family and legal boundaries, with past records of him being unruly to a female gardener and a former palace maid.
The maid, Charlotte Briggs, recalled practically racing over four flights of stairs to address a certain problem Andrew identified and insulted her over.
The Consequence Of Prince Andrew's Connection To Jeffrey Epstein
Although the Prince and the royal family vehemently denied any association with Epstein, The Blast shared that he still suffered severe consequences from the damning allegations in the files.
The 65-year-old's name was mentioned about 69 times in the Epstein papers, accusing him of multiple acts of sexual abuse and assault. His accuser, Virginia Giuffre, revealed that the Prince allegedly forcefully had sex with him three times, and once as a 17-year-old teenager.
When the civil sexual assault lawsuit dropped in 2022, the late Queen Elizabeth immediately demoted him from any roles as a senior royal. However, he is permitted to attend private and family functions.
Last year, new documents were unsealed, further reigniting public scrutiny against Andrew and emboldening Charles' resolve to permanently remove Andrew from any public royal duties.
Why Prince William And The Duke Of York Fell Out
Andrew's complicated relationship with his family is very multifaceted, to the point that he even has an ongoing feud with his nephew and the future king of England, as reported by The Blast.
Their crooked relationship stemmed from his mean and unwarranted comments towards Kate, as royal expert Andrew Lownie revealed in his book "Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York."
The Royal biographer declared that Andrew's comments were fueled by envy that his nephew's wife had become such an authoritative figure in the royal family since his mother's death.
Lownie described Kate as a "saving grace" to the royal family, making it super weird that anyone would make mean comments about her. "I'd have thought Prince Andrew would respect William as future king, though than to be nasty about his wife," the biographer added.
The current situation is also something William would rather not deal with due to his very demanding schedule, but his back is entirely turned on the Duke of York. Essentially, the entire family feels let down by Andrew following his current patterns.
Prince Andrew's Future Return To Royal Role Bleak Under Prince William's Monarchy
Aside from Andrew's weird commentary on his wife, William views his uncle as a great risk to the reputation of the throne. When William becomes king, there is likely no future for Andrew to resume back in his role as a senior royal.
King Charles and his son have also jointly agreed to keep his public presence within the monarchy as limited as possible. In line with this directive, Andrew was absent, alongside his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie, during the Trooping the Color parade.
This year also marked Andrew's exclusion from the annual Garter Day ceremony for the fourth year in a row. The Prince of Wales also kept his distance from his uncle during the royal family's Easter Sunday service at St. George's Chapel in Windsor.
