It\u2019s been months since ex-Prince Andrew<\/a> was stripped of his official titles, but his drama with the royal family isn\u2019t done yet.<\/p>\n

A source told Heat World UK<\/a> in a report published on December 22 that Andrew has \u201cbecome completely fixated\u201d on Prince William\u2019s wife Kate Middleton<\/a> as the reason for why he lost his royal titles and was essentially exiled from the family. (Buckingham Palace announced in October 2025 that Andrew would no longer be known as \u201cPrince Andrew<\/a>\u201d and that he would be moving out of his residence at Royal Lodge. The palace also confirmed that all royal \u201cstyle, titles, and honours\u201d Andrew previously had would be removed.) <\/p>\n

\"Prince<\/figure>\n

\u201cAndrew<\/a> has become completely fixated on Kate. He keeps going on about how she\u2019s a \u2018silent assassin\u2019 who\u2019s been quietly pulling the strings and whipping William into a frenzy about him,\u201d the insider said. \u201cHe\u2019s absolutely certain that major decisions about his future have been run past her and William, but instead of blaming William for getting him forced out he\u2019s turned his wrath on Kate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The source continued, \u201cHe has this warped belief that William is being controlled by her, that she\u2019s whispering in his ear and turning him against his own blood. He\u2019s saying she\u2019s poisoned the well against him.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the insider, Andrew is especially hurt by Kate<\/a> because he believed they were on \u201cgood terms\u201d before his royal exile. \u201cWhat makes it sting even more for Andrew is that they used to be on perfectly good terms, she was always very polite and warm, he believed she genuinely liked him,\u201d the source said. \u201cNow she won\u2019t give him the time of day and he\u2019s seeing it as her deliberately freezing him out and using her influence to make sure he stays sidelined.\u201d<\/p>\n

The insider continued, \u201cHe\u2019s now lashing out and telling anyone who will listen that she\u2019s the reason he\u2019s been booted from his own family. He\u2019s vowing to get back at her, which is not going to go down well with William when he finds out.\u201d<\/p>\n

The source also claimed that Andrew\u2019s \u201cbitterness\u201d has led him to find someone to blame for his exile, and that person happens to be Kate. \u201cAndrew is absolutely seething and looking for someone to blame, and in his mind Kate has become the perfect villain,\u201d the insider said. \u201cHe\u2019s convinced himself she\u2019s far more powerful than she lets on, that she\u2019s quietly steering decisions behind the scenes while maintaining this serene public image. He\u2019s a very bitter man.\u201d<\/p>\n

The source continued, \u201cTrue to form, Andrew refuses to accept that his own actions landed him where he is now. Instead, he\u2019s badmouthing Kate and, while there are still a few people within the palace that speak to him, he\u2019s been venting to them and warning them not to be fooled by her \u2018nice girl\u2019 act.\u201d<\/p>\n

The insider also claimed that Andrew<\/a> feels negatively toward Kate because of her close relationship with his late mother, Queen Elizabeth, which he believes he should have had. \u201cHe resents that Kate has emerged as this central, respected figure while he\u2019s been pushed into total irrelevance\u2019\u201d the source said. \u201cIn his mind, she\u2019s stolen the authority and standing he believes should have remained with him as the Queen\u2019s son.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for Kate, the source denied that the Princess of Wales has been leading a \u201ccampaign\u201d against Andrew, though he has been \u201cdisgusted\u201d by reports of his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. \u201cFrom Kate\u2019s side, she\u2019s simply not engaging with Andrew. She\u2019s by no means on some campaign against him but naturally she\u2019s disgusted by his behaviour and agrees with the King\u2019s decision.\u201d the insider said. \u201cIt\u2019s very awkward for her so she\u2019s avoiding Andrew and saying she\u2019s glad he\u2019s out of her hair. Andrew is so narcissistic he can\u2019t understand why she would want to distance herself.\u201d<\/p>\n

The source continued, \u201cInstead of having a shred of self-awareness he\u2019s turned it into this big sob story whereas usual he\u2019s the big victim.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
