The Prince Andrew scandal continues to gather momentum.
He had to resign his titles.
Now his brother Charles is said to have had his fingers in the pie.
LONDON - Prince Andrew (61) has had to relinquish all his titles - both military and Royal Highness status.
The Queen (91) caused this and thus drew consequences from the allegations against her son.
Andrew's brother Charles (73) is said to have had his fingers in the game.
A source told Britain's
Daily Mail
that Queen Elizabeth II made the decision after being advised by Prince Charles and Prince William.
The insider explained that the family wanted to save the reputation of the royals.

There may even be calculation behind it, the insider continues.
Because between Charles and Andrew not everything is sunshine and roses.
Rather, Prince Charles envied his brother for his carefree childhood.
Charles himself was prepared for his role in the royal family from an early age.
Andrew, on the other hand, always let it rip and celebrated a lot - until recently mostly without consequences.
According to the insider, Charles used the abuse trial against Andrew to get back at his brother.
"The two have had a long feud," the insider said.
It is not known whether there is anything in the statements Charles and William have influenced the Queen.
As usual, the royal family is keeping a low profile in this regard.

Andrew himself tried to stop the process - without success.
The British prince failed in his attempt to stop the US lawsuit over abuse allegations.
A court in New York rejected objections by Andrew's lawyers, according to a court document available to the German Press Agency on Wednesday.
Plaintiff Virginia Giuffre accuses Andrew, now 61, of repeatedly abusing her through mediation by Jeffrey Epstein.
