Prince Andrew Gossip

The Summit at Sandringham (which I’m told we’re supposed to stop calling a “summit”, but certain things stick, you know?) happened a week ago today. Late Saturday, Buckingham Palace released a statement from the Queen confirming that the deal was done on Sussexit.

House Sussex is the British royal story that’s been dominating headlines this week. And when there’s a big headline getting all the attention, if you have something to bury, it’s the ideal time.

Prince Charles and Camilla have been on tour over the last couple of weeks in India, New Zealand, and the Solomon Islands, though you wouldn’t know it because their travels have been totally overshadowed. Charles has been overshadowed before. Princess Diana used to overshadow him and he wasn’t all that fond of it. Full Story

Amazingly, though some reporters here and there have tried it, the UK tabloids haven’t let up on Prince Andrew to resume their attacks on Meghan Markle. Probably because the public isn’t having it. It’s now been just over a week since Andrew’s interview about his friend, the dead rapist pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, aired on BBC Newsnight. Full Story

We’re going to get to Prince Andrew later – what we’re talking about here, in this post, is the fact Prince Andrew, the beloved second son of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, known for years for his reportedly boorish behaviour and my-sh*t-don’t-stink attitude, has become a punchline, a joke, a joke that you can make on broadcast television in England without fear. Full Story
