Andrew Remains on Confidential Royal Funeral List, Report Says
The confidential “bridge” plans could still cover Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, even after he lost his prince title and working royal status.
- On Saturday, reports surfaced that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor remains on a confidential government list for a ceremonial funeral, despite his removal from the Royal Family's working ranks last year.
- Known formally as "bridge" plans, these government arrangements undergo regular updates to reflect changing circumstances; officials reportedly revised the Duke's plan following his loss of titles.
- Experts suggest a potential service could occur at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle, while under current plans, the Duke would be interred at the private 33-acre Royal Burial Ground at Frogmore in Windsor.
- US lawyer Gloria Allred, who represented 27 Epstein victims, stated, "Andrew has brought disgrace upon the Royal Family and the UK as a result of his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein." Tory Home Officer Minister Alicia Kearns demanded officials revoke the plans immediately.
- These arrangements represent long-term contingency planning and are not expected to be needed for many years. The 66-year-old, who lost his HRH style last year, remains in good health, allowing time for potential future revisions.
