The Queen aided Prince Andrew's settlement of his civil sex case by making a personal donation of £2million donation to his alleged victim Virginia Giuffre’s charity, it can be revealed.
It has also emerged that Her Majesty is allowing her disgraced son to keep his title of Queen’s Counsellor of State as well as his dukedom and service rank of Vice-Admiral - despite pressure to remove all remaining privileges, the Mirror reports.
As part of the terms of the £2m deal, drawn up by the royal family's most senior advisors and the Duke of York’s legal team, the Queen agreed to help the Prince on the condition that she was not connected to any personal payment made to Ms Giuffre, it is believed.
