Buckingham Palace announced on October 30, 2025, that King Charles III has initiated the removal of Prince Andrew royal style, titles, and honors, renaming him Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and requiring him to vacate Royal Lodge for private accommodation.
The action follows renewed scrutiny of Andrew over association with Jeffrey Epstein, highlighted by a resurfaced 2011 email and his 2022 settlement with accuser Virginia Giuffre.
The palace expressed sympathy for abuse survivors, while Andrew denies the allegations.
