A royal expert has claimed Prince Andrew is "pushing himself" onto the Queen.
Tina Brown, royal author, appeared on ITV's Lorraine this morning where she discussed the royal family, particularly the Duke of York and his alleged lobbying of the Queen to reinstate him as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards.
It is also believed he is keen to have his HRH title restored too and whilst Prince Andrew won't appear publicly during today's Garter Day service in Windsor, Buckingham Palace has confirmed that he will be in attendance at a private lunch and ceremony investing new members of the Order of the Garter.
