There are many questions surrounding Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and his future with the royal family after being stripped of his remaining titles.
A statement released by Buckingham Palace last week confirmed that the former Duke of York would be losing all of his royal titles and honours.
The full statement, dated 30 October, reads: "His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew.
"Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence. Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease, and he will move to alternative private accommodation. These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him. "

The unprecedented announcement concluded: "Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse."

It came after Andrew previously said he would relinquish his titles following new allegations surrounding his relationship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Amidst the turmoil, royal biographers and experts have started to theorise on what Andrew's new life may look like, and how he will interact with his family.
A royal biographer has now delved into the questions surrounding Andrew’s future in a new interview.
Robert Hardman, author of Charles II: New King. New Court.The Inside Story, spoke with the Daily Mail and called the King the 'fountain of justice' following his decision to strip his brother of his honours and titles, adding that he would have 'talked to the Prime Minister about this'.
The royal author was asked whether Andrew would have to bow to his daughters, Eugenie and Beatrice, as they have retained their titles.
“Yes, he probably will,” he said.
However, the biographer mused that Andrew is unlikely to bow 'happily'.

Andrew shares his daughters with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, and they are still princesses and HRH despite their father being stripped of his titles.
“All along, the King and other members of the family have been concerned that the sins of the family do not befall them,” Hardman said. “They are blameless, they have led a pretty upright life and are level-headed and very nice young women.”
The controversy surrounding Andrew and his friendship with Epstein received renewed attention after the release of one a posthumous memoir, Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, by Virginia Giuffre's, one of Epstein's accusers, which included more accusations regarding Andrew.
Giuffre, who died by suicide in April, had previously alleged that she was forced to have sex with Andrew on three separate occasions, accusations which the disgraced royal has continuously denied.
