Kate Middleton has been accused of being the “silent assassin” who is pitting Prince William against former Prince Andrew.

According to latest report, the former Duke of York blames the Princess of Wales for his fall from royal life.

A report by OK! Magazine revealed that Andrew believes Kate has been quietly influencing William, turning him against his uncle and ensuring Andrew’s exclusion from the family.

Andrew has “become completely fixated” on Kate after King Charles stripped him of his royal titles and honours and asked him to leave the Royal Lodge.

“He keeps going on about how she’s a ‘silent assassin’ who’s been quietly pulling the strings and whipping William into a frenzy about him,” the source said.

They added, “He’s absolutely certain that major decisions about his future have been run past her and William, but instead of blaming William for getting him forced out he’s turned his wrath on Kate.”

The insider warned that Andrew’s fixation on Kate could create further tension within the family. “He has this warped belief that William is being controlled by her, that she’s whispering in his ear and turning him against his own blood,” the insider spilt.

“He’s saying she’s poisoned the well against him,” the source shared, adding that Andrew had "good terms" with Kate before scrutiny renewed over his past ties with Jeffrey Epstein.

“She was always very polite and warm, he believed she genuinely liked him,” the source said. “Now she won’t give him the time of day and he’s seeing it as her deliberately freezing him out and using her influence to make sure he stays sidelined.”

“He’s now lashing out and telling anyone who will listen that she’s the reason he’s been booted from his own family. He’s vowing to get back at her, which is not going to go down well with William when he finds out."
