00:00Prince Andrew allegedly still demands to be called His Royal Highness despite losing titles, staff still bow to him.
00:08Prince Andrew may have relinquished his Duke of York title in mid-October, but he's reportedly demanding that his staff still address him as His Royal Highness.
00:18Nothing has changed inside Royal Lodge, a source told Rob Shooter's hashtag ShooterScoop on Thursday, October 23rd.
00:25Andrew's made it clear, palace rules don't apply inside his walls.
00:30Buckingham Palace confirmed on October 17th that Andrew, 65, was stripped of his Duke of York title, a peerage title, which was granted to him by Queen Elizabeth II in 1986 when he married Sarah Ferguson.
00:43According to the source, Andrew insists that it's his birthright to issue directives at home to his staff, adding,
00:50It's not something the king can erase.
00:52He's living in his own royal bubble, the source explained.
00:55To the world, he's a fallen prince, but in his home, he's still the duke.
01:00The decision to strip Andrew of his titles came after King Charles reportedly reached a tipping point in his brother's ongoing scandals, largely stemming from his former ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
01:11I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life, Andrew's October 17th statement read.
01:19I will therefore no longer use my title or the honors which have been conferred upon me.
01:23As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me.
01:28The message added,
01:30Days after stepping down, Prince Andrew made headlines as Representative Stephen Lynch confirmed he may be invited to meet with Congress regarding the late pedophiles' trafficking scheme.
01:40As a non-U.S. citizen, he cannot be legally compelled to attend.
01:43We would be extremely interested in hearing from Prince Andrew regarding his involvement in all of this.
