According to reports, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor will attend his granddaughter’s christening this week following the loss of his royal titles.
The youngest daughter of Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, Athena Elizabeth Rose, will reportedly be christened on Friday (December 12). Athena was born in January.
According to the Daily Mail, both Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson are expected to be in attendance.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor stripped of royal titles
Back in October, Buckingham Palace released a statement reading: “His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew.
“Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence. Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease and he will move to alternative private accommodation. These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him.”
It finished up poignantly: “Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse.”
The announcement followed years of scrutiny over Andrew’s association with late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein
