Prince William, Kate Middleton worried about 'welfare' of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor

Prince William and Kate Middleton harbour feelings of sympathy for Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

The Prince and Princess of Wales, are worried about the mental health of their estranged uncle, days after he was spotted horse riding in his Windsor estate post exile.

Speaking about the couple’s feelings, body language expert Judi James tells the Mirror: "While there is no love lost between William, Catherine and Andrew, my understanding is that they, and the rest of the royal family, believe they still have a duty of care for his welfare and mental health. Andrew is reported to have become isolated, depressed and solitary.

"It's not his fault if photographers are ready to pounce if he dares to venture out, and I don't think the Prince and Princess would begrudge him a ride around the park and some fresh air. Obviously it would be more convenient if it wasn't on their doorstep, but they know that this is about to end and he will be living miles away in Sandringham."

Speaking about King Charles himself, the expert adds: "I think the King will feel it's unfortunate that pictures of Andrew are in the press again, drawing attention away from the work the rest of the family are doing.”

Jennie said: “It would obviously be much better if Andrew were seen doing something for charity, or anything other than idly amusing himself. However, he is so toxic that no-one wants him anywhere near their organisation."
