As far as Charles supporting Andrew, he has been loyal to the monarchy. As much as he's grinding his teeth over his fall from grace, There have been no toe-curling interviews or books. Close friends (if he has any left) have not been 'authorized' to speak on his behalf to the media. Andrew might be a steaming pile, but he's managed to follow the First Rule.

Which brings us to Those Two. If Charles is fool enough to see them privately at Sandringham then I have no sympathy for what will follow. But if, as I suspect, the agitation in favor of a 'family reunion' is coming from Their pr mavens then we're only getting one side. If They come to Sandringham for a visit They will be well monitored. Wherever They stay on the estate, They will be monitored. In the name of security, of course.

Let Them try something in front of Anne. Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease.
