Prince Andrew Smirks While Accompanying Queen Elizabeth To Sunday Church Service

Prince Andrew smirked while joining Queen Elizabeth II to a church service.

The Duke of York is in hot water due to his connection to Jeffrey Epstein. However, the Queen shows her unwavering support to her favorite son by inviting him to share a ride with her when they attended a church service at Crathie Kirk on Sunday.

In the snaps shared by The Sun, Prince Andrew is seen smirking while sitting beside the Queen as they were making their way to church near Balmoral. The duke looks dapper in his smart gray suit.

Meanwhile, the Queen is stunning in her eye-catching fuchsia coat with matching hat. Her Majesty’s headgear is designed with white flowers.

This is the second time Queen Elizabeth II attended church with Prince Andrew while vacationing in Balmoral. The mother and son were first seen together in August.

The Queen and the Duke of York were photographed smiling inside the monarch’s vehicle last month. Sarah Ferguson was reportedly with them, but the Duchess of York was missing in the said sighting.

Ferguson and Prince Philip have not rekindled their close relationship following the duchess’ toegate scandal. According to a recent report, the Duke of Edinburgh couldn’t stand to be in the same room with Prince Andrew’s ex-wife. When Ferguson learned that Prince Philip was about to arrive in Balmoral, she left.

Royal expert Marlene Koenig urged Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth II to help Prince Andrew with his current predicament. According to Koenig, it’s time for the senior royals to intervene.

“It is time for queen and Charles to sit down with Andrew and strongly suggest that he give up his patronages,” Koenig wrote on Twitter. “Let his daughters take over a selection. He has a trust fund. Live quietly out of the public eye.”

Meanwhile, there are rumors that Princess Beatrice wanted to ban Prince Andrew from her wedding. Princess Eugenie’s sister reportedly doesn’t want any drama on her big day and she doesn’t like the Epstein scandal involving her father, so she is thinking of not inviting him on her special day.
