Prince Andrew will not take part in next year’s Platinum Jubilee Trooping the Colour, it is reported.
Royal sources admit there are “difficult discussions” to be had about the Prince’s military titles.
The decision comes after Virginia Giuffre – a victim of sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein – took legal action against the Prince.
She alleges she was assaulted several times by Andrew when she was a teenager.
He denies the allegations.
It’s said members of the Royal family – including his brother Prince Charles – fear the damage to the monarchy is growing and there could be no way back.
Prince Andrew’s military titles, including Colonel of the Grenadier Guards, would eventually have to be removed and redistributed, senior royal sources said.
The former naval helicopter pilot is a Vice Admiral in the Navy and Commodore in Chief of the Navy’s Fleet Air Arm.
