Disgraced Prince Andrew reemerges after skipping Queen’s Jubilee

• Prince Andrew’s daughters, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, both attended Jubilee events last week alongside their respective spouses.
• The disgraced royal is no longer allowed to use the title His Royal Highness and stepped down from serving his patronages in 2019.
• Andrew even penned a letter claiming that he regretted his association with the dead multimillionaire.

After missing Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee last week, Prince Andrew is back in the spotlight.

For the first time since he was forced to miss his mother’s 70th birthday celebrations, the 62-year-old was observed out and about on the grounds of Windsor Park on Thursday morning.

Due to “conveniently” contracting COVID-19, the Duke of York was unable to join the rest of the Firm on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for Trooping the Colour and other Jubilee celebrations.

The disgraced prince climbed into the driver’s seat of his car and drove out of the housing complex after being stripped of his military and royal titles earlier this year after being accused of sexual abuse.

On June 2, a spokeswoman for Buckingham Palace confirmed that Andrew had contracted the coronavirus.

“The duke has tested positive for COVID after undergoing a regular test,” the memo stated. “With sadness, the duke will no longer be attending tomorrow’s service.”

Despite appearing healthy while riding a horse just a day before the announcement, the Queen’s second son appears to have tested positive.

Royal watchers were sceptical of the diagnosis, taking to Twitter at the time to express their confusion.

Despite appearing healthy while riding a horse just a day before the announcement, the Queen’s second son appears to have tested positive.

He also had to cancel his appearance at the Queen’s Thanksgiving Service on June 3 at St Paul’s Cathedral in London, which he had planned to attend.

Andrew’s fatal association with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein enraged the royal family. In February, he agreed to pay Virginia Giuffre, a woman who said Epstein trafficked her to Prince Andrew in 2001, an estimated $12 million in an out-of-court settlement.

Andrew even sent a letter apologising for his involvement with the deceased multimillionaire.

Last August, Giuffre filed a sexual abuse case against Andrew in federal court in Manhattan, and he has vehemently disputed the allegations.

Earlier this month, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby addressed the former Royal Navy serviceman’s behaviour and stated that he is “working to make atonement.”

Welby said in a statement to The Washington Post that he hopes people will be more “open and forgiving” to Andrew as he tries to regain the public’s trust.
