Reports say Prince William 'threatened' to pull out of today's Order of the Garter ceremony if Prince Andrew was allowed to attend in public. A "family decision" was made, sources say, to limit the Duke of York's appearances at the Order of the Garter ceremony.
Buckingham Palace confirmed the disgraced duke - who was at the centre of a sexual assault case - would attend private elements of the day, but would not be seen in public parts of the event. It is claimed Prince Charles and Prince William both spoke to the Queen about their concerns reports The Mirror.
It is said that William was "so alarmed" by the idea of Andrew being part of the ceremony that he said he would withdraw if the duke featured in public sections of the day, the Evening Standard reported. Buckingham Palace has not commented on the claims.
