Andrew Windsor faces new infamy as street name is changed

The push comes after years of controversy surrounding his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and allegations from the late Virginia Giuffre, who said Windsor sexually abused her as a teenager before taking her own life this year at age 41.

He denies the accusation. Windsor now lives in disgrace after his older brother King Charles, 77, stripped him of his royal titles over his links to Epstein.

The Carrickfergus Street which will remove Andrew’s name from the sign currently contains around 10 addresses.

Alliance Party councilor Lauren Gray, who first proposed the name change, said the issue has gained momentum since she joined the council in 2019.

She added: “In recent weeks, as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor relinquished some of the titles bestowed upon him, and now that the Royal Family has removed his style, title and accolades, we are now in the space to have this conversation.”

Her motion was seconded by Alliance councilor Aaron Skinner and unanimously supported by all political parties on the council, including the DUP, UUP, TUV and Sinn Féin.
