Princess Beatrice and her father Prince Andrew - Starface

Princess Beatrice almost saw her marriage take on water. Fortunately, Queen Elisabeth II, her grandmother, has just announced that her wedding with Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi will take place on May 29 in the royal chapel of St James Palace.

As ITV had confirmed, the marriage of Princess Beatrice will receive no media coverage such as that of her sister, Princess Eugenie, and her illustrious cousins, Princes Harry and William. The idea is to keep a low profile in the Andrew scandal. The Queen's son is mired in the Epstein affair.

Worse and worse

After completely failing to defend himself by giving an interview to the BBC to explain his links with the financier, who has since died, accused of trafficking minors, he has put an end to his work in the investigation, as confirmed by the FBI at a press conference. Prince Harry's uncle is also accused by a young woman of having had sex with her when she was a minor.

If Prince Andrew has denied all of these accusations, the fact remains that he has officially retired from his royal obligations and that his birthday does not promise to be most encouraging. For its 60 years (February 19), several British municipalities would not hoist the flag on official buildings in his honor, as is customary. The government of Boris Johnson saved him a little bit by announcing to the mayors, as the Guardian relayed, that it is "no longer required, in the future, to hoist the flags on February 19 after the Duke's decision of York to withdraw from its royal obligations ”.

Prince Andrew's next public appearance should therefore be at his daughter's wedding on May 29. Even if he finds himself somewhat conspired everywhere and by all, it is he, the latest news, who will lead Princess Beatrice to the altar.
