BBC News: Prince Andrew is to lose his ‘prince’ title and leave his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge, following weeks of intense scrutiny over his links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Thursday night, Buckingham Palace said the King’s brother will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.<\/p>\n

Andrew gave up his other royal titles earlier this month, including the Duke of York, after facing more questions about his private life.<\/p>\n

In a posthumous memoir published earlier this month, Virginia Giuffre repeated allegations that, as a teenager, she had sex with Prince Andrew on three separate occasions. Andrew has always denied the claims.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the latest developments, Ms Giuffre’s family said she “brought down a British prince with her truth and extraordinary courage”. Giuffre took her own life earlier this year.<\/p>\n

In its statement, the Palace said the King “has today initiated a formal process to remove the style, titles and honours of Prince Andrew”.<\/p>\n

As well as the title, the Palace said “formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease” on Royal Lodge.<\/p>\n

He will be moved into private accommodation in Sandringham Estate, which is understood to be privately funded by King Charles.<\/p>\n

“These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him,” the statement continued.<\/p>\n

The Palace also expressed its support for victims of “any and all forms of abuse”.<\/p>\n
