Wonder if we’ll see some “Prince Andrew Didn’t Kill Himself” memes in the future?

That poor woman has got to really wonder where did such a idiotic group of kids came from.

She may as well pass the crown to her daughter. It seems like she’s kept out of trouble as far as I know.

The royal “chilluns” keep reminding me of the Monty Python “Upper Class Twit of the Year” contest.

“Steps back?” I think the Firm finally fired him. About time.

Yes, there isn’t a bright bulb in the entire royal family. I give you Prince Charles as a prime example.

That and the fact that the Queen did not raise her children when she was younger. She was away most of the time.

Andrew doesn’t know the first rule for finding yourself in a hole.

Too bad the Crown has to pass to that other loonie, Charles. They’d be better off picking someone at random from the phone book.

Yes, all of the other royals suddenly look a lot better by comparison, so are probably secretly grateful to Prince Andrew right now.

The Firm is pulling him back. Think he will rehabilitate with Fergie..and Prince PHillip who hates her will die rather than be in the same room with her. (sort of joking about the last part)

Has he ever been in public except for the courtship, wedding and divorce from Sarah Ferguson and... well, this?

I’m sure his royal duties are quite burdensome...

Ya really gotta wonder if they weren’t all molested as kiddos by the ‘courtiers’ in charge of their care.

The Brits need to find him a nice comfortable exile, like they did for Edward 8th.
