Queen Elizabeth ‘never a good judge of character’ with Prince Andrew

Queen Elizabeth has been called out by experts and historians for never “having been a good judge of character” in anything relating to Prince Andrew.

Royal historian Dr Ed Owens made this claim in an interview with Express UK.

There, she was quoted saying, “I don’t think any journalist has really held up a magnifying glass to scrutinise her personality and the positive decisions she's made as well as the negative decisions.”

“I would go so far as to say – and I say this tentatively – that the Queen isn't always a very good judge of character.

“I think there are two very striking examples that we can look to,” she also added.

“She would have consented to Prince Andrew using Buckingham Palace for the now-infamous ‘Newsnight’ interview, where he sought to categorically clear his name.”

“Then more recently, we saw how the Queen gave Andrew a prominent role at the memorial service held in honour of her late husband, the Duke in Edinburgh.”
