    It is understood that Prince Andrew will move to a property on the private Sandringham estate in Norfolk, the BBC reported, to be privately funded by the king.

    Pretty soft landing.

    In a sane world, we wouldn’t have kings and princes, and Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s only titles would be convict and inmate.

    To be clear, this isn’t happening because now the royal family knows. It’s because it’s too public for them to pretend they don’t know.

    I find this weird. Queen Elizabeth was to strip him of his titles after he gave an interview defending Epstein years ago, you know, when she was still alive. How are his titles stripped again?

    Edit: I looked it up. He was stripped of his royal patronages and military titles and he wasn’t allowed to use “his royal highness” anymore but he kept his royal titles in 2019.

    Remember this when they say the only paedophile in the Epstein files was Epstein.
