Queen Elizabeth II Allegedly Aware of Prince Andrew's Activities
Royal author Andrew Lownie claimed that Queen Elizabeth II knew about Prince Andrew Mountbatten Windsor's involvement with prostitutes in Buckingham Palace.
Claims by Andrew Lownie
During an appearance on NewsNation on November 6, Lownie stated,
“He brought in prostitutes to Buckingham Palace for years. It was done on a regular basis. People who worked there complained to people in command, but nothing was done.”
He added that security officers who complained were told to “keep quiet” or faced demotion.
Queen Elizabeth II's Awareness
Lownie alleged,
“Of course the Queen knew [about Andrew’s proclivities]. She was informed. But he was her favorite son, and he got away with everything. They brushed it under the rug — until now.”
Aftermath Following Title Stripping
Lownie, author of Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, mentioned that since Andrew’s title was removed, more people close to the prince have come forward with information.
“They are no longer scared to talk or come out and tell the world what really happened now that Andrew has been removed from power. Now that he is no longer protected by the queen.”
Palace Response
Us Weekly contacted Buckingham Palace for comment on these claims.
Summary
The allegations suggest the Queen was aware of serious misconduct by Prince Andrew but protected him due to their close relationship, though recent developments have encouraged witnesses to speak out.
