Andrew Mountbatten Windsor faces tough moment over reminder of ‘what is lost’

Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is in deep sorrow as the Royals carry on important events without him.

The ex Duke of York, who is in exile over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, watched elder brother King Charles celebrate his birthday in Buckingham Palace last week.

An insider has now revealed that Andrew is prepared to miss out on greater family moments as things get tough.

A source told Daily Express: “He’s become used to watching his family celebrate Trooping without him, but Garter Day will be a really tough day for him. It’s one of those days that reminds him of all that he’s lost. He’s feeling more isolated than ever; he’s completely alone.”

However, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and Sarah Ferguson are seemingly relieved as their daughters have been spared by the royal family.

The couple is happy that their daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, are not facing the consequences of their mistakes.

Royal expert Duncan Larcombe says: "You’d like to think that Andrew was big enough and clever enough to welcome the fact his daughters aren’t being tarred with the same brush.”

"But whether he is or not, we don’t know. Andrew is an odd cookie but you’d like to think he wants the best for his daughters after everything that’s happening and has happened to him,” he adds.

He continues: "The same applies to Sarah Ferguson. You’d hope it would come as a relief to them that their daughters are able to interact with their family in public."
