The disgraced former prince has been stripped of two royal titles that he once held dear.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has today been stripped of two titles, over a month after Buckingham Palace announced that the King had taken formal action against his brother. In the formal statement, it was revealed that the disgraced prince would have his membership of the Order of the Garter, an order of chivalry and that his Knight of the Grand Cross of the Royal Victoria Order would be taken away.

These remaining titles have been stripped today, The Sun has revealed. The official comes after it was announced that Andrew’s princely title would be removed, as well as his other remaining royal titles. It was also agreed that the King’s brother would vacate his 30-room mansion, Royal Lodge.

He is in the process of relinquishing the lease on the property and moving to a more modest home on the Sandringham Estate.

However, The Sun reported last week that Andrew is struggling to downsize, and although the move had originally been anticipated to take place in the New Year, it is now more likely to occur in February.

The removal of Andrew from the orders was announced in the London Gazette at midday.

They read: “THE KING has directed that the appointment of Andrew Albert Christian Edward MOUNTBATTEN-WINDSOR to be a Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, dated 23 April 2006, shall be cancelled and annulled and that his name shall be erased from the Register of the said Order.

“THE KING has directed that the appointment of Andrew Albert Christian Edward MOUNTBATTEN-WINDSOR to be a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, dated 19 February 2011, shall be cancelled and annulled and that his name shall be erased from the Register of the said Order.”

Andrew just has one remaining title, that of vice-admiral in the Royal Navy. Secretary John Healey said the government would “work to remove” this from him.
