King Charles has been cautioned to proceed with extreme care in his dealings with Prince Andrew and the York family, as a royal biographer claims more damaging revelations could be on the horizon.

Andrew Lownie, whose forthcoming book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York will be released on August 14, advises the King to keep his distance.

Speaking to the Daily Mail’s Palace Confidential newsletter, Lownie was direct: “I would keep the whole York family at a distance. Fergie should not be invited to events, and the daughters should not be made working royals. I believe there are more scandals to emerge.”

A History of PR Disasters

This is not Charles’ first experience with his brother’s controversies. In 2019, Prince Andrew stepped away from public duties due to his ties with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

By 2022, the late Queen removed his military titles and royal patronages after he faced a US civil lawsuit over sexual assault allegations — claims he has consistently denied. The matter was resolved out of court with his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, and since then Andrew has largely been excluded from royal life.

Fresh Allegations in Upcoming Book

According to royal insiders, Lownie’s book is set to reopen old wounds, revisiting Andrew’s associations with both Epstein and former US President Donald Trump. In a serialized excerpt published by the Daily Mail, Lownie recounts a 2000 Halloween party hosted by model Heidi Klum, which Andrew attended with Trump.

At the event, Trump reportedly called Andrew “a lot of fun to be with.” Not long after, Lownie claims the two discussed Trump’s planned golf resort in Scotland before engaging in a crude conversation about women, with Trump allegedly “producing a list of masseuses for the Prince.”

Damaging Testimonies and Controversial Claims

Over the course of his research, Lownie says he reached out to more than 3,000 people from Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s past, persuading 300 to speak — most off the record. He depicts Andrew as financially reckless and strikingly poor at reading social situations.

The book includes an alleged remark from Epstein describing Andrew as “more obsessed with p—y than [him],” along with a claim from Epstein’s former driver, who says he once chauffeured the Duke and “two young girls, aged around 18” to a hotel, where they allegedly took cocaine and Andrew was seen kissing one of them.

Unwelcome Timing for the Duke

The book’s release comes just weeks after the FBI and US Department of Justice announced they had found no incriminating ‘client list’ in the Epstein probe — a temporary reprieve for Andrew after years of scrutiny. Still, Lownie’s account suggests that while the Duke may have avoided new legal trouble, the court of public opinion is far from ready to absolve him.
