Good for them. This should have been done much sooner. I think they may have been able to contain some of the criticism had they done it sooner. There is more to come from Andrew's behavior and it will get worse.

It looks to me like getting Andrew pushed to the nether regions of the outer circle has been a long time in the works. Once Andrew was out of Royal Lodge, the statements about supporting the victims came out. I think the family always did support the victims, but for some reason they waited until Andrew was exiled to Sandringham before they said anything. We'll read about the full story in a few years. It will make interesting reading.

I think HM must be crying in her grave. This is not who she thought her beloved son was. We knew she took steps to help him and protect him, and I thought at the time she was doing the right thing in getting him to settle out of court and to give up his working life, but now I wonder if that ultimately did more harm than good. I think for the last year of her life HN was in pain and just focusing on one day at a time, and wasn't able to do anything else.

The story went out at the time HM was upset with Andrew because he settled. Now we know why Andrew was quick to settle. A lot of damning stuff has been released, I have a feeling there's much more info that hasn't seen the light of day.
The fact that Andrew was passing confidential info to Epstein that was meant for Govt. officers eyes only, shows his utter greed, arrogance and stupidity. I'm sure Andrew..and Fergie thought that they would be rolling in money by Andrew passing info to Epstein. Andrew is in trouble and now he's really in deep doodoo.
The Palace plus the Prince and Princess of Wales have done the right things.

I wonder if Andrew even realizes the severity of this. Or does he think he is exempt because of who he is. Does he think Charles will bail him out? I would love to know what Andrew is thinking right now. And maybe Sarah. Both would do good to flee the country.

I think Andrew thinks he can get out of all this by continuing to deny everything. His arrogance and sense of entitlement makes him believe he can talk his way out of trouble. Andrew may even continue to believe his brother will help him after all. Both he and Fergie have the victim complex, they are the victims of Epstein, not willing co-conspirators.
I've read some stories that have stated Fergie is already out of the UK, but there was no mention of where she is. Nothing was a for sure confirmation. Andrew is stuck in the UK, it's going to be difficult, if not impossible, to relocate anywhere else. Bahrain is out of the question. I wonder if it was Andrew who did the reaching out to Bahrain Royals to relocate there and not the other way around.

Fergie supposedly has traveled to France and will travel to the UAE. She's also, "planning her comeback". Fergie, the truth is, there is no comeback for you.

She travelled with at least five suitcases filled with toiletries and makeup? Umm, most hotels vacation rentals provide shampoo, conditioner, soap, and a blow dryer, and no one needs more than a regular cosmetics case for makeup. Insanity!
