Prince William is fed up with his scandal-scarred uncle, Prince Andrew, and wants him to “vanish from public view” after new allegations about him emerged in a new memoir.
This week, the disgraced Duke of York, 65, was accused of behaving “inappropriately” toward a female masseuse back in 2000 when she was summoned to Buckingham Palace by Ghislaine Maxwell.
As Andrew’s name continues to make headlines, the Prince of Wales is getting increasingly fed up with the negative attention the royal family is getting as a result.
“This is yet another national and royal embarrassment for all,” royal expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News. “Prince William so wants his uncle Andrew to vanish from public view.”
“When it comes to his wayward brother Andrew, King Charles III is also beyond exasperated and has disassociated himself publicly to make certain Andrew doesn’t appear with any senior members of the royal family.”
Elsewhere, royal commentator Ian Pelham Turner told the outlet that William, 42, is unlikely to ever have his uncle feel welcomed back into the royal fold.
“More allegations of potential impropriety will cause King Charles and Prince William [to take] further action,” Pelham Turner said of the future king.
“William has gained a reputation for being hot-headed, and even Charles could see this as the last straw with his brother.”
The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.
Earlier this week, former masseuse Monique Giannelloni, 60, claimed that the former working royal displayed an “abuse of his privilege” when she arrived at the palace 25 years ago, the Daily Mail reports.
Prior to the meeting, Giannelloni says, Maxwell — a longtime friend of Jeffrey Epstein’s — said she had a high-profile contact for her who was “more famous than God.”
Once there, Giannelloni realized that Maxwell was referring to Andrew.
In the book, the masseuse claims Andrew disrobed and removed his towel before climbing onto the massage table.
“He did not do anything or suggest anything untoward, but I was very uncomfortable and a bit shocked that he had acted like that,” she writes.
She added that she “expected more” from a member of the royal family, and his behavior did not leave her “impressed.”
Giannelloni was reportedly a sought-after masseuse in the UK, and boasted a high-profile client list, including “Friends” star David Schwimmer and dancer Michael Flatley.
Additionally, Giannelloni alleged that Maxwell had tried to recruit her for what she now believes were Epstein’s infamous boat parties.
“Andrew’s reputation has been sullied by his friendships with those two people,” she said, referring to Epstein and Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking.
“It was Andrew’s choice to be friends with those individuals Ghislaine and Epstein and somehow, I ended up in their world because of my work,” she went on.
“I have a lot of questions and a significant one is: was Ghislaine trying to involve me and Andrew in her sordid lifestyle?”
Maxwell, 63, was convicted in 2021 of recruiting and grooming young women to be sexually assaulted by Epstein — who in 2019 died by suicide in a lower Manhattan jail cell while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.
