Prince Andrew is giving up his titles, including the Duke of York, he has announced in a personal statement. He has been under increasing pressure over his links with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, with calls for Buckingham Palace to take action against him. That now seems to have resulted in the prince deciding to voluntarily hand back his titles and to give up membership of the Order of the Garter, the oldest and most senior order of chivalry in Britain. In his statement he said he continued to “vigorously deny the accusations against me”.
