\n\t\u201cBut above all the trio seem both very human and humane in how they show their individual characters, all the while under the judging glare of the public and the press,\u201d the\u00a0Express\u00a0<\/em>reported. Riches also pointed out that their gleaming outlook on the future might be able to \u201cwash clean the lingering stain of Andrew and Fergie\u2014and erode the millstone of Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s memory that still weighs heavily on the royal family.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tKing Charles had previously uninvited Prince Andrew\u00a0or his ex,\u00a0Sarah Ferguson, from this year\u2019s Christmas celebrations after the latest scandal. Andrew is set to move to a smaller house at Sandringham, reportedly at the beginning of 2026.<\/p>\n
