Palace prepares to deliver 'kick in the teeth' to Andrew as new details emerge

It seems as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor's punsishment is far away from over as he continues to count the blows after being named by his late accuser Virginia Giuffre in her posthumous memoir 'Nobody's Girl'.

Buckingham Palace is allegedly preparing to deliver a 'kick in the teeth' to the former Prince after new shocking details emerge.

Andrew's name could be changed again as newe document emerges, indicating the disgraces royal to lose more in a fresh blow. The former duke's loss of his Prince title prompted royal aides to reconsider how he should be formally referenced

Royal commentator and historian Ian Lloyd expressed shock over the Palace's announcement which omitted the hyphen from Andrew's name.

'I was quite surprised when the Palace statement came out giving Andrew's name without a hyphen, given the historic precedent for one,' Lloyd told The Times.

Sarah Ferguson's ex-husband may use the hyphenated surname Mountbatten-Windsor when referring to Andrew in future communications after a review of Queen Elizabeth II's 1960 declaration to the Privy Council.

The declaration, released shortly before Andrew's birth in February 1960, stipulated that descendants without the style of Royal Highness or the dignity of Prince or Princess would bear the surname Mountbatten-Windsor.

King Charles III's office is said to be examining the historical document which established naming conventions for royal descendants who lack formal titles.

'My descendants other than descendants enjoying the style, title or attribute of royal highness and the titular dignity of Prince or Princess and female descendants who marry and their descendants shall bear the name of Mountbatten-Windsor', the declaration stated.
