Prince Andrew's latest scandal has been the talk of the royal world after it was recently revealed he was friends with alleged "Chinese spy" Yang Tengbo. The question on everyone's lips lately has been whether the Duke of York would still attend Christmas at Sandringham—and amid news that he's backed out of the festivities, it's been reported that his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson was "instrumental" in convincing Andrew to stay home.
"It is understood that the King and Queen were quietly hoping that the Duchess of York might come to their rescue and ‘talk some sense’ into her ex-husband, as one of the few people to still have his ear," the Daily Mail reported on Dec. 16. It's been said that King Charles didn't want to "axe" his brother from the Royal Family's celebrations, per the outlet, with The King reportedly waiting for the Duke of York to make his own decision to stay at Royal Lodge.
