In a surprising turn of events, King Charles is reportedly contemplating banning his younger brother, Prince Andrew, from wearing ceremonial robes and insignia at the upcoming coronation in May.

This decision comes in light of the Prince’s out-of-court settlement with Virginia Guffrey, who accused him of allegations he vehemently denied.

The Prince is said to be furious as he feels left in the dark while His Majesty deliberates on the matter.

Prince Andrew had already been prohibited from wearing his uniform at his mother’s funeral last September after stepping back from royal duties.

While working members of the royal family wore military attire during the mourning period for Queen Elizabeth, Andrew and Prince Harry opted for black mourning suits instead.

As the coronation of King Charles approaches, Andrew may be asked to don a lounge suit, having been stripped of his military appointment as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards.

Sources reveal that the Prince has been kept completely unaware of his role and the required dress for the coronation, leaving him feeling disrespected and dictated to wear something he believes he is entitled to.

Last June, it was reported that King Charles and Prince William had urged Queen Elizabeth to overturn the decision allowing Andrew to appear in his full robes.

The coronation weekend, commencing on May 6 at Westminster Abbey, will witness the crowning of King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla in a ceremony filled with religious symbolism and pageantry.

However, compared to Queen Elizabeth’s coronation in 1953, the service is expected to be shorter and more intimate.

As part of Charles’ streamlined monarchy, the ceremony is set to be considerably briefer, aligning with the modernization of the dress code for attendees.

King Charles has decided to break tradition by eliminating the requirement of silk stockings and breeches.

Buckingham Palace has been approached for comment on this recent development.

King Charles’ decision is likely an attempt to distance the monarchy from the scandal surrounding Prince Andrew, who has faced mounting criticism for his association with convicted s** offender Geoffrey Epstein.

Despite stepping back from royal duties in 2019, the Prince’s absence from many official royal events has done little to assuage public concerns.

While the decision to deny Prince Andrew the privilege of wearing ceremonial robes at the coronation may be perceived as a further snub, King Charles is undoubtedly eager to ensure that the ceremony proceeds flawlessly and portrays the monarchy as a symbol of unity and stability.

As the world’s eyes turn towards the coronation, the slimming down of the monarchy and the modification of traditional dress codes for royal events will undoubtedly be topics of discussion.
