What to Know
The former Prince Andrew‘s life has been marred by the Jeffrey Epstein scandal for years at this point, but it wasn’t until recently that he finally suffered real consequences for his involvement. Not only is he without his titles, but he was also forced to move out of Royal Lodge, the home he and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson have lived in for many years.
Royal insiders claim that Andrew has now reached the “bitter” stage of his emotions as he processes such a big change, and even though this was ultimately King Charles’ decision, he’s decided that Kate Middleton is the one to blame.
Andrew is convinced that Kate has been “pulling the strings” behind the scenes.
According to what a palace source has told Heat World, Andrew is convinced that Kate has “poisoned” the royal family against him… even though, from what we can tell, he seems to have done that all on his own.
“Andrew has become completely fixated on Kate,” they said. “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. 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.”
Though it’s widely believed that Prince William did have an influence on Charles’ decision to evict Andrew, apparently, the former prince believes that Will is being “controlled” by his wife.
Before this, he thought he and Kate were all good.
‘What makes it sting even more for Andrew is that they used to be on perfectly good terms, 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 has reportedly been spreading the word that she was the “mastermind.”
Andrew reportedly believes that Kate has made a major change-up, and it sounds like he’s not going to stop until everyone in their royal circle hears about it.
‘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,” the source added. “Andrew is absolutely seething and looking for someone to blame, and in his mind Kate has become the perfect villain. He’s convinced himself she’s far more powerful than she lets on, that she’s quietly steering decisions behind the scenes while maintaining this serene public image. He’s a very bitter man.”
Meanwhile, Kate is doing her best to appear unbothered.
If this intel is to believed, then Kate is doing her best to act unaffected, despite Andrew attempting to act out his revenge on her. In fact, now, she’s reportedly just “avoiding” him to be safe.
“From Kate’s side, she’s simply not engaging with Andrew. She’s by no means on some campaign against him but naturally she’s disgusted by his behaviour and agrees with the King’s decision,” the insider said. “It’s very awkward for her so she’s avoiding Andrew and saying she’s glad he’s out of her hair. Andrew is so narcissistic he can’t understand why she would want to distance herself. Instead of having a shred of self-awareness he’s turned it into this big sob story whereas usual he’s the big victim.”
