The King 'Sucking Up to Republicans' on Andrew Will Only Lead to the Monarchy's Downfall

Feb 20, 2026 | “This monarchy will be brought down eventually.

There are personal challenges for the royals, but new links are being forged with “kind words”, as King Charles has said, between the public and the Palace.
