Buckingham insider comes out: ‘If the law deems Andrew go to prison so be it’

The allegations of misconduct against Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and the ongoing case against him has gone to new heights and with even sexual misconduct now part of the multi-pronged approach sources have come forward to deliver the most raw verdict, and it allegedly comes straight from the royals.

The entire thing has been shared with Heat and sees the insider say, “This latest turn of events has sent shockwaves through the whole family. They feared more trouble was on the horizon but were clinging to the hope it would not come to this.”

One thing they did make clear is that “make no mistake, the majority of them are not concerned for Andrew. This panic is purely for themselves and the royal institution - nobody wants the humiliation of seeing a senior royal facing a potential trial.”

Before concluding the added, “that being said, William and the rest of the family are all saying that if the law deems him fit to go to prison, then so be it.”

What’s also pertinent to mention that another source admitted is that ‘the only people with any empathy left for Andrew are Anne and Edward,. They certainly aren’t advocating that he gets any special treatment legally, but they would like to see the family be a little warmer with him. As it stands now, he’s been frozen out by everyone but them. Charles just spent the holiday weekend ten minutes away from him and didn’t make any effort see him, there was no invite extended, no phone call made, he completely blanked him.”
