Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, is stepping back from his royal public duties “for the foreseeable future”.

It is amid a controversy surrounding his relationship with disgraced American financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

It also follows the now infamous interview with Emily Maitlis on BBC Newsnight.

Richard Fitzwilliams is a royal commentator, par excellence, and didn't hold back in his assessment of the Prince.
