Crown and Controversy - King George III and the American Revolution7 Jun

8. Stripping Andrew

After years of scandal over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, Charles makes the brutal decision to strip his younger brother Andrew of all remaining titles. Andrew is no longer a prince—he's now just Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. He's evicted from Royal Lodge. The decision comes with Prince William's support, but it's devastating nonetheless. Charles is removing his own brother from the royal family. It's the final, terrible duty of his kingship: protecting the institution, even if it means destroying family bonds. Just like his mother before him.

While no one truly knows what happens behind closed palace doors, this series uses news sources, on-the-record quotes, and some artistic license to craft this entertainment series. Some moments have been dramatized for storytelling effect. AI narration was used in creation of this series.
