King Charles formally moved into Balmoral less than two weeks ago, which is much later than his mother used to do. Charles and Camilla had been in Scotland for weeks beforehand, they were just staying at Birkhall, the mini-palace adjacent to the big house at Balmoral. As soon as Charles was in residence at Balmoral, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson came up, and they\u2019re reportedly staying in one of the smaller lodges on the property. We don\u2019t know when Prince William and Kate turned up, but it was probably some time last week. William and Kate were then seen going to church with Andrew on Sunday. William was driving, Andrew was riding shotgun and Buttons was relegated to the backseat. Thankfully, royal sources ran to the Telegraph immediately to tell the world what message was being sent by this not-so-delicate choreography.<\/p>\n
\nPrince Andrew has attended church in Balmoral with senior royals – in an apparent show of unity which insiders say marks an end to any talk of a \u201cfamily divided\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Duke of York was seen with the Prince and Princess of Wales on Sunday as part of the family\u2019s first summer holiday on the Aberdeenshire estate since the late Queen\u2019s death. It comes after rumours of a family rift amid the fallout from the Duke\u2019s friendship with the disgraced paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein, which forced him to stand down from front-line royal duties in 2019. Earlier this year the King cut back on the annual allowance of \u00a3249,000 on which Prince Andrew now depends. Prince William was instrumental, along with Charles, in stripping the Duke of his military titles.<\/p>\n
Royal sources told The Telegraph that the Duke, who was pictured in the front passenger seat beside Prince William, was in Balmoral with \u201call the Yorks, including the Duchess\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cSafe to say it\u2019s a holiday where the entire family has been invited, the entire family are participating and the entire family are included,\u201d they added. \u201cAnyone looking for a family divided angle will be sorely disappointed.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty Magazine, said the family holiday in Scotland was \u201can indication that the situation with the Duke of York hasn\u2019t got any worse, it hasn\u2019t deteriorated\u201d.
\u201cIn private things remain fine,\u201d Mr Little said.<\/p>\n\u201cThe Duke of York may not be regarded as a working member of the Royal Family, but he will always be a member of the Royal Family, that situation will never change.\u201d He said that while the outward public persona of the Royal Family \u201cis very different nowadays\u201d, it was the case that the \u201cfamilial relationship will never change\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe will forever be the King\u2019s brother, and then the King\u2019s uncle, so there will always be a close relationship with the monarch,\u201d Mr Little added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
[From The Telegraph]<\/p>\n
As I\u2019ve said before, they\u2019re totally fine with Andrew and what he\u2019s been credibly accused of. They don\u2019t mind the fact that he was BFFs with human traffickers, rapists and predators. They don\u2019t care that he likely raped multiple girls\/women trafficked to him by Jeffrey Epstein. The important thing for William and Charles right now is that everything they do must be an unsubtle message to Prince Harry: look, Harry, this could be you, you\u2019ll be \u201cforgiven,\u201d you can still be part of the family, you just have to crawl back to us and beg us for forgiveness. It\u2019s also remarkable because William has wanted so much credit for forcing Andrew out, and yet, here we are. William chauffeuring a sexual predator to church.<\/p>\n
