I gotta say, this whole thing with Prince Andrew and his royal titles feels like a big mess
. I mean, I get it, he's trying to distance himself from the Epstein scandal, but at the same time, it's hard not to feel like he's just trying to save face
. Like, if you're gonna step down from public life five years ago and now are only doing it because people are talking about you, that's kinda funny
.
On a more serious note though, I think this is a big deal for the monarchy as a whole
. They've been handling this situation so poorly for so long, and it's starting to erode trust with the public
. But at the same time, I feel like we're not seeing enough from Prince Andrew himself about what he did wrong or how he plans to make things right
.
Ultimately, I just hope that this decision brings some closure for the women who were affected by Epstein's abuse
. We need more people in positions of power to take responsibility for their actions and do better
. And yeah, maybe Prince Andrew's title thing is a small step in that direction
.
. And let's be real, the royal family is always going to have some skeletons in their closet. It's like they think they're above the law or something 
. The fact that he thought relinquishing his title would "distance himself" from the fallout is just laughable 
. He should've done this years ago when everyone else was calling him out for it 
. Now, all he's doing is drawing more attention to himself and making us wonder what other secrets are lurking beneath that royal facade 
.
.
.
. And it's interesting to see how Prince Andrew is trying to distance himself from all this, but it's hard to shake the feeling that he's just trying to save his own skin 
.
. But I guess times have changed, and the monarchy needs to adapt if they want to stay relevant 
. One thing's for sure, though – this is gonna be a wild ride while it's all being sorted out
