King Charles Formally Strips Andrew of Prince and HRH Titles as U.S. Lawmakers Seek Interview

House Oversight Democrats have asked him to sit for a transcribed interview by November 20.

Overview

  • Letters Patent dated November 3 and published in The Gazette remove Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s HRH style and the titular dignity of Prince.
  • A separate Warrant dated October 30 directs his removal from the Roll of the Peerage, confirming the loss of the Duke of York title and related honours.
  • Buckingham Palace has served formal notice to surrender his Royal Lodge lease, with plans reported for a move to private accommodation on the Sandringham estate funded by the King.
  • Democratic members of the U.S. House Oversight Committee sent a letter requesting a transcribed interview about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, noting he should respond by November 20 and that he cannot be compelled as a foreign national.
  • Scrutiny has intensified following newly disclosed 2011 emails, while London police say they are reviewing related material, and Andrew maintains his denials after settling a U.S. civil case in 2022 without admitting liability.
