In 1919 George V issued a Letters Patent declaring that his cousin Pss Patricia of Connaught would no longer be an HRH nor a Princess of the UKoGB&I… this was her choice as she was about to marry a commoner. I was also thinking what else can Pr Andrew do? It’s not like he can wear an in visibility cloak. The tabloid media will never leave him alone ( I am not speaking in his defence ) . Previous Message
AFAIK, someone can indeed legally renounce an hereditary or noble title - e.g., ancient history but the late Anthony Wedgewood Benn renouncced his inherited title of Viscount Stansgate because it was barring him from sitting in the House of Commons. But that was a legal and formal renunciation, and in the case of Prince Andrew it seems to be somewhat murky - meaning, he's just not "actively" using it any more, unless more comes to light here about all of this.

Well I am sure that was negotiated so he can save the last bit of his face but it comes down to the same thing: He's out and should now move to a modest residence or people will continue to question his sense of propriety. Previous Message
He’s not had his titles and honours removed , he’s choosing not to use them ( my understanding ) His daughters are still “ of York “ because he’s still technically the DoY… the UK tabloids will figure this out and start a campaign against the daughters … Previous Message
Finally... Charles is taking decisive action. Andy's position was unattainable for some time now. Next step: moving out of Royal Lodge and off the Windsor Estate. Royal Lodge is now way above his satus as a disgraced royal. A modest apartment in Kensington Palace or a small country House will do now nicely now. Perhaps Highgrove? I don t think its used much now anyway...
Odd if his daughters remain ' of York'. Why not simply HRH Princess B or E of the United Kingdom?
Big news …
