Ex-Prince Andrew "Probably Will" Need to Make Major Protocol Shift With Eugenie and Beatrice Now That His Titles Were Stripped, Says Royal Expert

On Thursday, October 30, King Charles made the unprecedented move to strip his brother, the former Prince Andrew, of all of his titles and honors, including that of prince. Now known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, the disgraced ex-Duke of York has been evicted from Royal Lodge and will be moving to the Sandringham estate in the near future. But in the wake of his downfall, there are many questions still swirling around Andrew, many of them involving his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.

Bowing and curtsying is an often-discussed part of royal protocol, and since he's actually a commoner now, this means a big change is in store for Andrew. Speaking to the Daily Mail about Andrew's new life, royal biographer Robert Hardman confirmed that "yes, he probably will" need to bow to Beatrice and Eugenie, who still have royal titles.
