The royal family open their daggers and cast them straight into the disgraced Prince Andrew like the vengeful passengers in Murder on the Orient Express.

British media report that it was Prince Charles and Prince William who made the “ruthless and swift” decision to strip scandal-stricken Andrew of his title and torpedo his cash flow all at once.

A palace insider told daily Mirror : “The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge are perfectly aligned in their view that the Duke of York has presided over a complete and utter disaster.”

Andrew’s deportation was “widely discussed” within The Firm, but following his latest legal setback on Wednesday, Charles and William advised Queen Elizabeth that the 61-year-old had to leave.

On Wednesday, Andrew’s latest legal gamble was denied by a New York judge to pull out of a sex trial under the age of one of Jeffrey Epstein’s former juvenile slaves.

Charles and William were “instruments” in the power play, daily mail Report.

“It is about survival of the institution at all costs. There has always been and always will be,” a senior source in the palace told the tabloid.

The end came on Thursday morning when the Duke of York was called to an emergency meeting with the Queen at Windsor Castle. Her Majesty did not allow her son’s lawyer, Gary Bloxsom, to sit with her.

The Mirror quoted a source as saying Prince Andrew is “shell-shocked”.

And then it was done. Adding to the disgrace was the Queen’s decree that Andrew was no longer to be addressed as “Her Royal Highness”.

The source added: “It was a cruel and swift decision that would have been recommended by the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge and approved by the Queen.”

While Prince Andrew was said to be the Queen’s favorite child, he once again took on duty for the first time.

Another source who knew her well said, “She has the ability to know what is best for the institution and she will play her role as the head of state and not the mother.”

“She loves Andrew and that doesn’t mean he’s no longer her son. But a decision had to be made because it was going to weigh on everything the family had done and his upcoming platinum jubilee.”

“Everyone must be feeling very relieved that he has finally been cut. This may help them bring more clarity in fighting the case.”

Prince Andrew was a longtime friend of pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein and his frenzied muse, Ghislaine Maxwell. Even after Epstein took time to call an underage prostitute in Florida, the ‘Pook of York’ maintained a friendship.

He even took to the BBC to defend his relationship with Epstein, which turned into a disastrous interview.

Now, she faces a civil jury trial in New York, it falls on Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s claims that he had sex with her when she was three times younger. He denies knowing Giuffre or any wrongdoing – despite the photo of himself, Giuffre and Maxwell.

Andrew’s $3,500-per-hour legal team tried to argue that Prince was covered under the $500,000 settlement Epstein made with Giuffre in 2009. The judge didn’t buy it.

What will happen next?

Prince Andrew, as a private citizen, would now be expected to spend the legal battle with Giuffre out of his own pocket. To do this, he is selling his $30 million ski chalet in the Swiss Alps.

Not only this, Andrew’s 24-hour security details are feared to be lost.

One expert said the prince would need to find up to $1.7 million to pay Giuffre and avoid a humiliating trial. According to Mark Stephens, Andrew only has “bad choices”.

During this …

Sex-trafficking socialite Maxwell has thrown in the towel in fighting with Epstein for having “vast information” about his “trafficking campaign.” Giuffre had asked the files of her 2015 lawsuit against Epstein’s broker to be made public.

Maxwell is said to have been determined not to outsmart his rich and powerful friends who had sex with Epstein’s underage girls. The files contain eight “John Do” or “non-party 17, 53, 54, 55, 56, 73, 93 and 151”.

Undoubtedly, six of the panicked parties have objected to the sealing of the files. It is unclear whether one of the men is Prince Andrew. One argued that it would “upset and embarrass” him, while another lamented that he was “trying to live a private life.”
