Prince Andrew’s interview has shockingly put Queen Elizabeth II’s reputation at risk.

The Duke of York has been in hot water due to his friendship with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Just recently, Prince Andrew spoke about the matter and said that it was damaging to him but not for the Queen. However, royal correspondent Peter Hunt doesn’t think so. In fact, according to him, Prince Andrew’s BBC interview will cause problems for Her Majesty.

“This interview was his attempt to convince us a) that he didn’t have sex with this woman Virginia Roberts three times, he said that three times in this interview,” Hunt said.

“But also more importantly for us, the public, to forgive him for yet another lack of judgement. The evidence is from Emily Maitlis, the interviewer, who has said twice now that this went ‘higher up’.”

According to Hunt, when the duke talked about the “higher up,” he was referring to his mother, Queen Elizabeth II. He stressed that the mention was important and it put the Queen at risk since some will probably question her judgment.

“That’s important, because that shows that her judgement is also being questioned for allowing her residence, Buckingham Palace, to be used for this. I suspect today, we will see coming out of Buckingham Palace what will be Operation Protect The Queen. I suspect there will be briefings suggesting that she didn't know. But I think that's shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted.“

Some netizens also felt that Prince Andrew’s interview didn’t help at all. According to some royal fans, Princess Eugenie looked sad when she was spotted at the John F. Kennedy International Airport following her father’s interview. Some hoped that Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice and Sarah Ferguson will remain strong amid the issues plaguing Prince Andrew.

In related news, Queen Elizabeth II had been spotted attending Sunday service with her favorite son, Prince Andrew, when she was vacationing in Balmoral last summer. However, on Sunday, Her Majesty made her way to church alone.
