Prince Andrew’s royal crisis branded ‘bad as Diana’s death’ – expert | Royal | News

Prince Andrew’s latest royal crisis was branded “as bad as Diana’s death” by a royal expert today. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond appeared on ITV’s Loose Women on Wednesday and spoke about Andrew’s latest scandals, including saying he would no longer use his royal titles.

The royal’s reputation hit an all-time low last week, even though the 65-year-old Prince has denied all allegations made against him as a result of his previous relationship with late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. It has also diverted attention from the work of the monarchy, as many believe Andrew’s recent scandals have tarnished the Royal Family’s image.

Speaking on Loose Women today, Jennie Bond said it was a “huge crisis” for the royal family and described it as “even as bad” as Diana’s death.

This was because the tragic death of Diana, Princess of Wales in a car crash in Paris in 1997 damaged the monarchy’s image; because the public’s lack of reaction immediately after his death made them seem cold; The late Queen was staying at Balmoral rather than flying to London.

In making this decision in the best interests of Prince William and Prince Harry, who had just lost their mother, the late Queen faced a lot of hostility.

Comparing the Prince Andrew scandal to the crisis faced by the royal family after Diana’s death, Ms Bond said of Loose Women: “It just went on and on. It got brutal and I think it’s a huge crisis for the Royal Family.”

“I said it was as bad as Diana’s death because, as tragic as it is, this is a very disgusting story and I know Andrew denies all the accusations.”
