Prince William 'determined' to freeze out Prince Andrew: expert
Prince Andrew was photographed alongside his disgraced uncle outside Westminster Cathedral recently
Prince William has once again signalled his determination to keep Prince Andrew away from royal duties and the public spotlight.
The Prince of Wales, 43, was photographed alongside his disgraced uncle outside Westminster Cathedral following the funeral of the late Duchess of Kent.
Despite standing side by side, William appeared unwilling to interact, with reports suggesting he was “furious” at being ambushed into conversation.
Author Andrew Lownie told The Mirror that William has made every effort to avoid public association with Andrew, particularly since the Duke of York has been engulfed in scandals over the years.
Royal expert Hilary Fordwich previously told Fox News that William is resolute in distancing himself.
“Prince William has long had a strained and distant relationship with Andrew,” she said.
“Andrew’s future within the Royal Family is beyond bleak, since Prince William is firmly opposed to any public rehabilitation. He wants Andrew to vanish from public view.”
