King Charles fears ex-Prince Andrew’s scandal could threaten the monarchy

Chard noted that regardless of Andrew’s “tarnished reputation,” the king continued to care for him because he was his brother or sister.

She also explained that Charles is doing this as he promised his mother.

“The Queen had a strong sense of duty and family obligations,” she said, “which may have led her to ask King Charles to care for Andrew. Andrew’s emotional and overall well-being was of great importance to her.”

Author Paul Burrell, Princess Diana’s former butler, told the story Fox News digital the “weight of the monarchy weighs heavily” on Charles.

“He is a father, a brother, a husband,” he said. “He has everyone’s weight on his shoulders. I often think to myself, he waited so long for this job. He waited so long to be king and wanted it so badly. I wonder if, now that he has it, he should think, ‘Be careful what you wish for, because you’ll get it in the end.’ And now he has it. And what a job he has now.

“His brother has gone rogue, and I don’t think we’ve seen the last of it.”

He also explained that Charles is currently trying to control the House of Windsor.

“If he can contain it and keep it all in separate compartments, I think he’ll win,” Burrell testified. ‘But he has to handle it very carefully. He can’t let people just walk all over him because he is king. Charles makes the rules. The family must adhere to this.’
