Prince William Is in a "Power Struggle" With Father King Charles Over Prince Andrew's Future

Prince Andrew might have attended church with the Royal Family on Easter Sunday, but according to multiple royal experts, the public shouldn't expect a grand return to duties for the disgraced Duke of York. Andrew—who stepped down from royal life after his infamous 2019 Newsnight interview about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein—joined ex-wife Sarah Ferguson and their daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie for church on April 20. However, King Charles and Prince William are said to butt heads over the duke's involvement in family events.

A royal insider told the Mirror that the Prince of Wales "has no time for his uncle" after Prince William and Princess Kate skipped Easter at Windsor Castle to spend time in Norfolk with the Middletons. "This Easter was about spending time with his own family, but he would far prefer a situation where he doesn't have to spend time with him," the source added.
