The arrest of ex-Prince Andrew sent shockwaves through the British royal family. He was reportedly taken into custody on his 66th birthday on suspicion of misconduct in office. While the news has seemingly shaken the foundation of the monarchy, the senior royal members are keeping calm and carrying on with their duties. King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton have all made appearances at high-profile events recently — a move which is a “distraction technique,” as per a PR expert.
Royal family minding their ‘business as usual’ after ex-Prince Andrew’s arrest, says PR expert
Despite Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest, the royal family is carrying on with their duties and minding their own business. HELLO!

He had a conversation with the designers and kept himself composed amid the arrest news.
Meanwhile, Queen Camilla also attended an arts organization event in Westminster. As for Kate Middleton, she continued the streak of high-profile event appearances. She attended a rugby game as well as the British Academy Film Awards along with Prince William.
Phil Dampier, a royal expert, mentioned that the royals are trying to keep calm and go on with these high-profile events. This is to show that they are carrying on their duties as they did earlier, without any disruptions. As per another expert, Hayley Knight, the royal family putting themselves forward as a “national front” is a “distraction technique.” She explained that they just want to show that “it’s business as usual.”
Meanwhile, Dampier added that the royal family believes in the mantra, “Never complain, never explain,” and that’s exactly what they are doing right now. He emphasized that in such tough times, the royal family believes in staying united. This is why they are carrying on with their usual selves and duties. Moreover, they believe it’s better to stay silent rather than speak out.
