Will Queen allow Prince Andrew to attend her big event?

Prince Andrew,  who's facing sexual assault allegations from Virginia Giuffre over his alleged association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, might not be allowed to attend the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations amid civil case.

The Duke of York may also miss out royal family's famous balcony shot. Royal experts are claiming that Andrew's presence is doubtful during the Queen's jubilee as he's not a “good representation” of the royal family.

Prince Andrew's Twitter account has also been deleted, days after the Queen stripped him of his honorary military titles and charities.

Still, Andrew has not lost everything. He retains the title of 'prince' from birth and remains the Duke of York, which is a peerage. He also remains in the line of succession for the throne.

Speaking of Andrew's presence at Queen's event, a co-host of the Royally Us podcast Christine Ross said: “I know it must be difficult for the Queen because she was so fond of Prince Andrew but I don’t think that he's a good representation of the family with everything that's going on so I don't expect we’ll see him especially not up on the balcony but throughout the Jubilee events.”

Andrew, the third child and second son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, is ninth in the line of succession to the British throne. He served in the Royal Navy as a helicopter pilot and instructor and as the captain of a warship.
