Andrew Halts Titles as Palace Signals Concern

Royal sources say Buckingham Palace is treating claims about Prince Andrew's links to Jeffrey Epstein with "very great concern" and wants them examined fully. Andrew said he will stop using his titles and honours, including Duke of York, and gave up the Order of the Garter, though he remains a prince. A posthumous memoir by Virginia Giuffre, whose allegations he denies, has intensified pressure as the Metropolitan Police examine claims he sought her personal details from a protection officer. MPs Rachael Maskell and Stephen Flynn urged legal changes to strip titles, while a minister said decisions aren't for government.
