Queen's 'final decision' to walk with Andrew despite Charles and William's warning

The Queen informed both Prince Charles and Prince William that it was her 'final decision' to arrive at her late husband’s memorial service with disgraced Prince Andrew at her side.

Both royals warned the Queen that being seen so publicly with the shamed Duke of York was inadvisable, given his recent settlement of a sexual abuse lawsuit in the US.

Andrew was sued by Virginia Guiffre over claims he sexually assaulted her on three separate occasions, with the allegations linked to his relationship with dead paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell.
