From where I sit, the biggest problem for the Windsor clan is that Prince Andrew actually has a strong position in all current and future negotiations. I think Andrew is a rapist piece of sh-t, but I won’t pretend that Andrew is in a terrible position as he negotiates his future. As much as King Charles wants to put Andrew and Fergie onto an ice floe and set them to sea, Andrew and Fergie will not go quietly. Andrew has already “lost” his titles and honors, but they’re finding it difficult to take away much more than that. Andrew has to agree to give up his lease on Royal Lodge, which he will only do for what sounds like a substantial payment/settlement. And the larger threat is “what happens if we take away Andrew’s home and he gets mad and decides to write a tell-all book?” Well, according to the Sun, Andrew has apparently promised Charles that no memoir will be written.
Prince Andrew has promised the King he won’t “do a Harry” and write a bombshell book. There are fears that the former duke, 65, could “go rogue” if he is evicted from Royal Lodge.
But he has assured Charles that the split — dubbed “York-xit” by insiders — will not be a repeat of Megxit. A source said: “Andrew won’t write a book like Spare. He has promised the King.”
Harry, 41, rocked the foundations of the Royal Family after he and Meghan departed in 2020.
The pair bleated to Oprah Winfrey in a TV interview, then made a six-part Netflix series. The Duke of Sussex then made millions from his best-seller memoir.While Andy will not do the same, The Sun on Sunday can reveal his ex-wife Sarah is inundated with book offers. Fergie, 66, who was caught in a fresh Epstein emails scandal, would be expected to write a tamer “life lessons” book about her cancer diagnoses and becoming a grandmother. But a friend noted: “She couldn’t write a book without (Andrew) being in it.”
A friend said Andrew was also banned from interviews after his 2019 Newsnight “car crash”.
Something I think about a lot regarding the Sussexes is how infrequently the Windsors put things in writing. The Windsors are not fans of legally-binding contracts or putting their non-legal “settlements” into writing. Perhaps Andrew did pinkie-swear that he won’t write a memoir, but that doesn’t mean anything and Andrew can still use it as a threat for Charles AND William. Like, imagine this – Charles “settles” the Andrew problem, buys out the Royal Lodge lease for a low eight-figure payment and sets Andrew up at Wood Farm in Sandringham. At some point, Scooter King William gets to sit on the big-boy throne and William decides to punish Andrew even further, no more Wood Farm, no more titles for Andrew’s daughters, what have you. What’s stopping Andrew from writing a memoir or giving an interview or spilling some of the royal gossip he’s accumulated over decades? What’s stopping Andrew from basically doing all of this all over again to get more money and more accommodations from the crown? Absolutely nothing.

Oh he “”promised”” that’s all right then. If Andrew told me the sky was blue I’d immediately want to go outside to check.
In other words Charles “Bitch, betta pay me my money!”
Oh yeah. that’s the vibe. And one day, he’ll be saying that to William.
Sure the pedo “promises” not to write a book like spare. The pedo is a known liar and this agreement will never end because the pedo will always have leverage (secrets) and whenever he wants something else he will use his leverage to get more. Thats what happens when your blackmailer has your secrets.
But if you are a well known lying pederast who lies, writing a “tell all” book isn’t really the threat you think it is.
Ha! That’s true. Unless you do somehow actually have legitimate receipts lying around somewhere.
Oh but it is when you (Chuckles Peg and others) know he has your secrets to tell and that is most frightening to Chuckles et al. Chuckles knows his pedo brother lies but he is still afraid of those secrets coming out and those secrets probably can be fact checked by others.
Andrew can write all the books he wants because no matter how credible his version of events is, the monarchy will ignore him and the press will eviscerate him. And honestly, what could Andrew or even Fergie possibly know that will make a difference. The only person who might be exposed is Camilla and she’ll scorch the earth if they come for her.
Being terrified someone is going to write a book about you is not a valid excuse to kowtow to a man who raped trafficked minors, it makes Chuck look weak and cowardly and his heir just looks useless ranting to the rags as always.
Andy’s promises are also as reliable as his alibi of being at the pizza express in Woking. Just a reminder.
Andrew “promises” not to write a memoir…
Just like he said yes he’d sit down with FBI and answer questions…
He may not write the book but it doesn’t mean he won’t get someone else to do it. Or like others have said hold that over Chuck and Willy’s heads for ever
Oh! Well then. A promise is a promise. That’s basically their family motto.
Like how Charles PROMISED security for Harry and Meghan and Archie for at least a year and pulled it. Snatched up their legal lease which is a legal PROMISE.
Andrew’s word – like Charles’s – is his bond. 🙄
write the book it will do better than all the other stuff being written by others, but make sure you are in a non extradition place LOL
And make sure you learn a skill by which you can support yourself. Because you won’t have those royal connections to sell anymore.
Again, these people are so atrocious and have done such gruesome things that what they are most concerned about is covering up their corruption and deviance. They are truly abhorrent.
The Windsor women who claim to champion or support charities for abused women and girls are complicit in this coverup. None of them has expressed concern for the victims JE sexually trafficked over the years since Andrew was first exposed. Where is Camilla, Sofie, even Eugenie who founded a charity to fight human trafficking? The toxic dysfunctional Windsor ‘mafia’ has closed ranks yet again to weather the storm and execute another cover up of their gruesome wrongdoings.
The entire situation just stinks. Just truly abhorrent.
If Charles believes this, then he has more health problems than they’re letting on.
I feel like if Andrew or even Fergie wrote THAT book, William would (finally) sic the Met Police and Parliament on him. They’re in a mutual destruction compact.
I love how these creeps have tried to make commonly accepted the notion that Harry spilled the beans on the royals. They never say what was spilled other than in generalities when, in fact, the only thing that Harry said was that his brother assaulted, that the staffs at both palaces have been out of control for decades and that Chucky and Cruella used multiple nameless briefings in the press to make her look better at the expense of H and then H&M. Not exactly earth shattering or monarchy wrecking.
Yeah, Spare was barely a “told some.” Harry could’ve revealed a lot more.
And what’s to stop either Beatrice or Eugenie from writing about their lives in the royal family? I imagine they too know where the bodies are buried, especially having seen how WandK treated the Sussexes.
A “tell all” like Spare? Has Charles read Spare? Maybe he knows only what Camilla told him.
If King William attacks Harry, I hope it will be time for Spare 2, starting with what Harry left out of Spare. A true tell-all.
Seriously speaking, how much damage did Spare cause William?
Yeah but did the PDFile promise not to write a biography like the one that Dimmbleby wrote for chuckyTheTURD in which he slagged off his parents & bemoaned his life with the Windsors inside the gilded cage.
The way they keep putting Harry in the same sentence as Andrew, as if marrying a Black woman and writing a book is a similar crime to literal rape and pedophilia is absolutely vile.
Also, no one would buy a book written by Prince Andrew. The only ones who would read that are the royal rota rats looking for any morsels they can get. Most of the general public generally don’t want to support pedophiles. Harry’s book was a bestseller because Harry is actually interesting and has done a lot and gone through a lot in his life.
That’s it also, I certainly wouldn’t purchase any book he authored, and with his history of lies I wouldn’t expect it to be truthful either. So the panic from the king and heir is probably all performative to try to justify the pedo not facing any real consequences.
Whether they believe in honor or not, they would be absolute idiots not to require an NDA before he can cash the check.
this is the end of the monarchy, I swear. Like brexit was the end of the Conservative Party, in long historical view. I mean, “bleated?” Harry? Harry was discrete, painfully modest, and direct. He told the world exactly what happened in his family, to him, after his mother died. Which was, he was treated like shit. Harry has a lot more in common with Virginia than he does with Andrew. They want to compare the two “Spares” because of their birth order? Not their behaviour? Harry was a neglected child. Hardly the case with Andrew, who was cosseted, enabled, spoiled, and indulged. Harry’s first school holiday after his mother died was spent with friends whom his father asked to take him in because he was busy. It was also his first fall term at Eton, as I recall. At a new school, and after his mother’s violent and sudden death, and after the billions of people following the story watched him walk behind her coffin. About six weeks later his father was simply too busy to spend a week with him over his half-term holiday, which we’re on now, as it happens. Harrry doesn’t even *mention* that in Spare. Spare is a lot more like Virginia’s book than they want to admit. The constant bashing, gratuitous smears, the sneering, the crude put-downs, it’s all just…. Infra dig. Sadistic, wilfully obtuse, and lowbrow. It’s the combination of malice and blockhead stupidity that animated Brexiteers. They look like rude, loutish drunks, on the world stage. Like — get away from these sordid people, whatever it takes.
🎯
@Parkrunmum , yes , bleated,, rocked foundations ..so much bile at Harry while a rapist pedo entitled creep gets a free pass because he promised NOT to bleat? There are more ways to spill the beans than to be upfront and honest like Harry . Pedrew is capable of dropping all sorts of revelations and using it to negotiate terms .I would love to know exactly what happened when Kate fell off the radar and the insiders must all know it . For chrissake the staff always have deadly inside information and so do hospital staff . They deserve to have all their crimes and misdemeanors aired for all to see
I wouldn’t believe a word he writes anyway, unless it’s a full confession of his crimes and the cover up, and shares all his knowledge of other crimes. He’s a liar.
This is a promise that needs to be broken. Andrew should write and publish.
His postures over the past week lead me to believe that he has some serious dirt on Camilla, which is the only reason Chuckles the Tampon Clown would still be trying to negotiate with him.
As an aside, no one forced QEII to leave her entire estate to Charles. Any decent parent would split it evenly amongst all one’s blessings.
Yes. Queen Elizabeth could have left her possessions to anyone she wished. She was simply avoiding tax consequences. I also think that if Andrew did indeed promise not to write a memoir that would have been when he agreed with Charles to stop using his titles but remain at Royal Lodge. I don’t think he would or should refrain from writing a book if he is kicked out of Royal Lodge.
If we are being truthful, no, Andrew couldn’t possibly write a memoir like “Spare”. That would require a level of introspection that he simply doesn’t have, as well as a huge public demand that will pay good money to read his garbage. That isn’t going to happen.
But what could certainly happen is that Andrew (or more likely Fergie) will write their own version of events that will end up being embarrassing to the firm. The Yorks were there throughout Charles and Diana’s courtship, marriage, and divorce (and you KNOW Fergs is bitter about the comparative size of their divorce settlements). I’m sure they know all sorts of gossip and sordidness, including about Prince Philip (who openly hated Fergie), how the Windsors REALLY reacted to Meghan (cuz we’ve seen that no royal book gets sold without mentioning the Sussexes) and the exact state of the Queen’s health in her last few years. Remember all of those stories about Andrew doting on his ailing mother in Windsor during 2022? Yeah, it’ll be a lot of that, and how HE took care of her while Charles was putting out fake news about her health and ensuring Camilla’s titles once he ascended to the throne. I’m certain that Andrew also knows all kinds of disparaging stories about the Middletons and the Wales family. He hasn’t survive this long by being unobservant.
If Andrew has any sense, his book is already dictated and locked up, in several different locations, with the proviso that ,if anything were to happen to him, it would be released.
They had nothing of value to take from Harry because they never gave him anything of value.
Even Frogmore Cottage was previously servants’ housing. Harry literally had nothing to lose and everything to gain: his first paying jobs, his own house, his own car, and his first taste of freedom from not having to diminish himself so that his father and brother were not “overshadowed”.
If you have access to that first Invictus Games clip in the UK, watch it again, particularly the part where Harry gets a HUGE round of applause. He looks down because he knows his father and brother are in the audience, and he even says something self-deprecating, since he already knows that being congratulated in front of them is forbidden. Slow down the video speed and watch the reactions of Charles and William; they are clapping for Harry with stone faces. Camilla is in the middle, lapping up their pain like an emotional vampire. That was the last time Charles or William ever mentioned Invictus Games.
I read that Harry was told to “wrap it up” after Toronto, but he pulled off Melbourne with Meghan (I think these plans were made before Geidt left). Then The Hague was interesting, I remember Jobson saying that Harry will have a difficult time keeping the games because the big sponsors want to be associated with the 👑, not Harry, and that was the last time Range Rover sponsored the games…
I think Andrew only has this leverage cuz the family doesn’t hate him as much as they claim. They are choosing not to go nuclear on him. We saw how far they can go when a spare refuses to follow the rules and taints the bloodline with black blood. Deep down they truly believe Andrew is special and deserves a baseline level of respect and privileges cuz of his blood.
They were able to gather the entire elite class of Britain against Meghan. Even people on the left in Britain treat Harry and Meg like they’ve committed some unforgivable crime and deserve hate on par with Andrew. The family may have skeletons but the media will lie and worse to protect the institution. This isn’t the Diana days, the reporters know they are stenographers and there to maintain the aristo status quo. With a man who had to pay 8figures to his abuse victim the media would have a field day if the family made it known they stopped protecting Andrew. I mean the family leaked his lease agreement thou I’m sure the media has always known the basics of how he little he paid. The tabloids would do clean up for any of andrews attacks against the royals.
Andrew is still deeply embedded in the aristo world and the royals have many levers they could pull to punish him that would genuinely hurt and isolate him. Charles could take away his shooting privileges and still not touch 10% of the heat they brought against Harry. Instead they have chosen protection and everyone is following including the gov. Look at ravec and the security case when the family approved going after Harry. Or how the met refused to investigate Andrew. Just asking for his security records would add credibility to his abusers claims. The gov is refusing to even discuss andrews tax payer supported housing situation cuz they know he is still within the Royal fold. Andrew has so many skeletons and no credibility that anything he says would be difficult but not earth shattering esp with media and elite support keeping everything quiet.
Andrew has leverage cuz he knows there is a floor to how much they will punish him. They don’t even like Andrew as a person but he’s an aristo and deserves a baseline level of respect and benefits. They are probably angrier that the peons are trying to take away the god given rights of the queens son. Things would be different if Andrew was black or not an aristo. They’ve put a line in the sand and refuse to go over it. By going with a black woman and mixing his blood with her, Harry relinquished his rights to that protection . So there is no low to how they will attack him. And it’s not just that he talked,everyone from Charles to Edward’s to Fergie to some of the cousins have use their own name or helped journalists expose and say bad things about others in the family.
This entire thing is a farce from top to bottom
I disagree with most of you: Andrew writing a tell all would sell zillions of copies and newspapers and magazines would be clamoring to publish excerpts. Assuming, of course, he drops some really steaming hot tea about his relatives.
Honestly I don’t think it would sell as many books as people think. Kevin federline is just the most recent example but for the truly slimy characters most people wait for the article writesups and don’t actually buy the book. They just released a book on Andrew and Fergie with minor tea and while it has fuelled some of the current bad PR it hasn’t actually sold. The press have shown they will protect the institution from anything truly damaging. They will massage and minimize the truly bad details. Look how they treated charles literal bags of cash or his concerns about Archie’s color stories. The tabloids are still writing “poor Fergie” and “what about andrews mental health” stories cuz they know he isn’t fully out. He still has a layer of protection by the family, and the press(and government) know that so they are pulling their punches. The vitriol against the Sussexes is what happens when you are fully cast out.
Unless Andrew has proof that Charles was on Epstein island too or the equivalent anything he exposes would be deeply uncomfortable and create scars, I agree, but not abolishing the monarchy bad. And camilla has DEEP strong ties with the media and a lot of her skeletons are already exposed. The institution has way more leverage they are just choosing not to use it cuz they are more upset with the public’s demands than angry at Andrew.
The problem is that British publishers constantly churn out the same old books by the usual suspects recycling the same old crap. One actually by Andrew (his ghostwriter) would sell well, I think. But who knows–let’s face it, leaving his own ridiculous personal life aside, I am sure Andrew has many more secrets about this parents and sibs, maybe even William’s generation though I tend to think not. Bags of cash, Jimmy Saville, Mountbatten, Phil’s affairs, god knows what about Margaret, where the money is hidden…..on the other hand, he’s extremely stupid, so who knows.
I don’t think that people realize the UK is currently experiencing a ‘Constitutional Crisis’.
The Monarch, King Charles, is being ‘blackmailed’ by his younger brother, Prince Andrew, who has been exposed as a voluntary accomplice of a convicted sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. The previous monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, paid £12m in 2022 to settle a civil court case in the USA and prevent the victim, Virginia Guiffre – who Prince Andrew was photographed embracing in the presence of convicted sex trafficker and JE accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell – from exposing Prince Andrew who has been accused of having sex with her when she was a teenager. Virginia ended her life in 2025 but has maintained her claims in a posthumous memoir that she was trafficked to the UK to have sex with Prince Andrew who continues to deny culpability and also denies even meeting or knowing Virginia despite the photographic evidence, the £12m settlement payment to gag her and despite soliciting a royal police officer to intimidate and silence her using potentially illegally acquired personal material information (her US social security number).
Steps are currently being taken by the Monarch, King Charles, to placate and acquiesce to Prince Andrew’s demands while attempting to dissuade the government and parliament from initiating an inquiry into Prince Andrew or the Crown Estate finances used to facilitate the demands of the blackmailer.
I repeat, the UK is currently experiencing a ‘Constitutional Crisis’.
He will certainly not write a book like “Spare” because that requires self-reflection, truthfulness, love and courage. Charles is the head of the Church and should be in a position to be his brother’s conscience and persuade him to face up to his responsibilities.
But I think Andrew will leave for a country like Qatar, won’t he?
