"
Andres tried to persuade the Queen to block Carlos's marriage to Camilla

According to Angela Levin, Andrew's plans included
Charles's resignation as heir
to the Crown and
Prince William's rise in the line of succession

resentment
towards Camilla and his determination to convince the

made "a very strong lobby"
for years to predispose the monarch against Camilla for years, before
his own fall from grace
