Recently, his brother, King Charles also threw him out of Buckingham Palace and he will not be allowed to have offices on the premises.
So, after getting almost deserted from his family, Andrew is thinking of leading a life like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. A source closer to The Sun told the outlet, “Andrew is less bothered than people think about losing his titles and official royal roles”. The source confirmed that he is closely observing their life to follow in their footsteps.
The source continued, “They have managed to set up a new working life away from the Royal Family and that is something Andrew has been following very, very closely. He is very interested in the businesses and charity side of things, rather than doing anything on Netflix”.

Harry wrote that Andrew “was embroiled in a shameful scandal, accused of the sexual assault of a young woman and no one had so much suggested that he lose his security. Whatever grievances people had against us, sex crimes weren’t on the list”.
