Just when King Charles was trying to make peace and end the rift with his younger brother, disgraced Prince Andrew, yet another scandal blows up in the Royal Family’s face.
Buckingham Palace is reportedly investigating visits made by an alleged Chinese spy to royal residences – at the invitation of the Duke of York.
The Chinese businessman, identified by the British Justice only as H6, was invited to events at Buckingham palace, St James’s Palace and Windsor Castle.
All the facts surrounding the espionage scandal came to light after a court heard that the Chinese individual, who was described as a ‘close confidant’ to Andrew, is banned from the UK on national security grounds.
The Telegraph reported:
“Buckingham Palace is understood to be investigating the various occasions when H6 entered royal residences, to ascertain with whom he may have had contact.
[…] H6 was allegedly invited into Buckingham Palace twice and also attended a function at St James’s Palace and an event at Windsor Castle.”
This comes after UK’s MI5 have been revealed to also be investigating money given to the Andrew’s business venture by Chinese donors with alleged links to H6.
Many link that to the fact that it is not known how the Duke is paying for the upkeep of the 30-bedroom Royal Lodge.
The King has been informed of the investigations and allegations before they became public.
The Chinese businessman brought a recourse to the Special Immigration Appeals Commission after then
Home Secretary Suella Braverman said he should be excluded from the UK back in March 2023.
“Judges were told that in a briefing for Mrs. Braverman in July last year, officials claimed the man had been in a position to generate relationships between prominent UK figures and senior Chinese officials ‘that could be leveraged for political interference purposes’.”
Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield said Andrew is a ‘liability’ to both the monarchy and the British Government, and the situation is ‘a major headache for the King’.
GB News reported:
“The royal expert emphasized that Prince Andrew ‘continues to be a liability to the monarchy, but potentially now to the Government’.”
Representatives for Andrew said he has ‘followed advice from HMG and ceased all contact with the individual after concerns were raised’.
“They added: ‘The duke met the individual through official channels, with nothing of a sensitive nature ever discussed. He is unable to comment further on matters relating to national security’.”
According to Schofield, serious consequences may ensue for Prince Andrew’s position within the Royal Family.
“She claimed: ‘Under extreme circumstances, Prince Andrew’s title as the Duke of York could be removed by an Act of Parliament. […] ‘This is the newest addition that I think is rocking the royal-watching community, and maybe that is the next step here’.”
