In the most recent blow to Andrew’s royal standing, King Charles is understood to be considering withdrawing the prince’s allowance, which comes from the private Duchy of Lancaster fund, previously overseen by the Queen. Sarah Ferguson remained close to the Queen following her divorce from Prince Andrew “She totally accepts that with a change of reign will come a change in circumstances and she supports King Charles entirely.
