William’s Long Campaign to Push Andrew Out

Even before formal measures were imposed on Andrew, Prince William had reportedly been urging his father, Charles, to take decisive action. In November 2019, Andrew sat down for a televised interview with the BBC’s “Newsnight,” attempting to present his version of events amid growing controversy.

The appearance, however, was widely viewed as a misstep and intensified scrutiny rather than easing it. Following the broadcast, William is said to have spoken to his father, urging swift action.
