Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor officially stripped of two more titles
Baku, December 2, AZERTAC
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been officially stripped of two more honours by the King, according to Sky News.
He is no longer a knight companion of the Order of the Garter and has also lost his status as a knight grand cross of the Royal Victorian Order.
It's another formality in the King's effort to sideline his brother and show he's acting decisively over his controversial links to Jeffrey Epstein.
The former prince has consistently denied allegations of sexual abuse and his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, took her own life this year.
Official notice of the titles being revoked was published today in The Gazette, the official public record.
Andrew had held the Order of the Garter title since 2006 and the Royal Victorian Order honour since 2011.
He agreed to stop using those titles, as well as the Duke of York, in October, amid further claims over his friendship with Epstein, including an email raising doubts over when he cut ties with the paedophile, and the imminent publication of Ms Giuffre's memoir.
Andrew was stripped of his prince status days later amid the release of US court documents and claims Andrew tried to dig up dirt on Ms Giuffre through a police bodyguard.
It was also announced he and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, would move out of the palatial Royal Lodge in Windsor.
