Every year, Princess Catherine hosts her televised Christmas carol service, traditionally held at Westminster Abbey and broadcast on Christmas Eve. Many members of the Royal Family make an appearance, including King Charles III and Queen Camilla, as well as Prince William and their children—Princes George and Louis, and Princess Charlotte.
Last year, many noted that Andrew was absent. In fact, reports from Marie Claire say that Andrew—now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor—has never attended the concert and has apparently never been invited at all. His name, it’s said, has simply never been on the guest list.
A Title Removed, But Not the Family Ties
Last month, King Charles formally removed Andrew’s prince title following continued backlash surrounding his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
A statement released by the Palace read: “His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew.”
It was also confirmed that “Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence.”
