Prince Andrew has not been seen in public since Queen Elizabeth’s memorial service. And prior to the queen’s passing, he also made a conscious effort to stay out of the limelight. In fact, the Duke of York took a step back from his royal duties years ago after he was accused of sexual abuse.
Prince Andrew Still Not Done With His Sexual Abuse Accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre?
Last year, Prince Andrew and his accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre reached a settlement. The amount that the Duke of York was asked to pay Giuffre was not disclosed to the public.

According to Radar Online, several months may have already passed since Prince Andrew and Giuffre reached a settlement. But the Duke of York still hasn’t taken any responsibility for his actions. In fact, Prince Andrew allegedly told his friends that he is the real victim.
