Prince Andrew will not be joining his brother King Charles III and other members of the royal family for Christmas this year.
Instead, the Duke of York, 64, will “honourably withdraw” from the royal family’s Christmas celebrations at their estate in Sandringham, England to avoid being a distraction, according to the BBC.
It is expected that Andrew will remain home at Royal Lodge in Windsor Park — the palatial estate he has fought to remain in after King Charles attempted to evict him.
Andrew’s bowing out comes after a British high court hearing last week heard evidence suggesting that an alleged Chinese spy banned from the UK was a “close” confidant of the prince.
On Monday, businessman Yang Tenbo, also known as Chris Yang, was revealed to be the alleged Chinese operative after a judge lifted an anonymity order that had kept his identity under wraps.
Yang has denied the accusations of espionage leveled against him, saying in a statement that he had “done nothing wrong or unlawful and the concerns raised by the Home Office against me are ill-founded.”
He also said that it is “entirely untrue” that he was a spy.
The Chinese national visited the UK regularly and frequently attended events at royal residences — Prince Andrew’s 60th birthday party at Royal Lodge key among them.
Court documents have reportedly revealed that Yang had an “unusual degree of trust” with Prince Andrew and was authorized to act on his behalf in business dealings with Chinese investors.

I feel bad for Prince Andrew. He saw our Senator Mitch McConnell take ChiCom money with no repercussions. So Andy decides to investigate possible opportunities, and he gets slapped down.

My guess is the spy was supplying “Randy Andy” with women. And maybe funding.
I think they just don’t want him around anyway. The combined scandals and his actions just made him the dumpster fire relative you don’t want around the house.
I think the spy issue is just icing on another crap cake.
PA is a dolt and judging by his nephew in Montecito, affliction must run in the family.
A British Biden...
Always liked Andrew and Sarah..and happy they’re together.
What ever happened to the scandalous claim that Prince Andrew’s real father was someone other than Prince Philip (Lord Porchester)?
Inbreading
Harry or Andrew: which of the pariah princes does Britain dislike more?
From a few days ago...
...It said: “Under your guidance, we found a way to get the relevant people unnoticed in and out of the house in Windsor.”...
Both Andrew and Harry are national security threats.
Which the UK's Deep State was and is just fine with.
Prince Andrew...the Bidens...goodness,you’ve gotta give these Chinese spies credit. They get around!
Is this his first Christmas away from Epstein Island?
Just ask Eric Swalwell.
Every family has that one, particular uncle...
Just imagine if that particular uncle was Prince Andrew.
It would seem that approximately 100% of Andrew’s troubles are due to his proclivity for chasing tail.

His mama babied him letting him get by with whatever he wanted. Should have had dad lay down some discipline years ago.
It is said daddy was really the horse manager or something. Not that Charles is any better but he’s smart enough to keep his misdeeds (aside from Camilla) on the down low.
The resemblance between the two is definitely there.
Add to the long list of PA’s scandals, Epstein was a guest at Beatrice’s 18th birthday party with pictures to prove it.
