Prince Andrew reportedly pushed his ailing mother Queen Elizabeth II to help restore his royal life while he was embroiled humiliation over the infamous sex scandal.

As per Daily Mail: "A source whispers that Charles had been tipped off by the Queen's senior staff that Andrew's persistent lobbying of the ailing monarch to restore him as a 'working royal' was taking its toll.

"Andrew knew that if his mother didn't rehabilitate him then all hope was gone."

Earlier, another source told the Mail on Sunday: "Andrew was totally blindsided. He is utterly bereft. He always believed there was a way back."

While another added: "Naïve as it may sound, he always had hopes of regaining his position as a senior royal. At the meeting, Charles told him that he can go off and have a good life, a nice life, but that his public life as a royal is at an end.”
