Prince William has reportedly “had enough” of a member of the Royal Family, and wants them to “stay out of sight”. While the spotlight remains firmly on the Prince of Wales’s strained relationship with Prince Harry, and whether the brothers will see each other anytime soon, William’s frustrations right now are not directed at the Duke of Sussex – but elsewhere.
According to a Palace insider, William is fed up with his uncle Andrew Mountbatten-Winsdor, and wants him to drop his legal battle against the Thames Valley Police. They said: “William has had enough. He wants Andrew to stop fighting, stay out of sight and stop putting Epstein and the Royal Family back into the headlines.”
The source also claims that in William’s eyes, “every new legal battle” harms the reputation of the Firm. Andrew took legal action against Thames Valley Police in a bid to quash search warrants which led to his arrest in February. The disgraced royal was arrested on his 66th birthday on suspicion of misconduct in public office following allegations he senstive information with paedophile Jeffery Epstein during his time as the UK’s trade envoy.
Thames Valley Police has accepted warrants it used to search Andrew’s home at the time of his arrest were unlawful. Judge Mr Justice Hilliard said on Thursday at the High Court that Mountbatten-Windsor and the police had agreed that the search warrants had been unlawful.
