Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor reportedly believes he is the most "at risk royal" for one unusual reason. The former Duke of York had his titles and honours removed last year due to his ever-growing links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The former working royal was also forced to leave his previous Windsor home, Royal Lodge, to move to new accommodation in Norfolk. He has always denied any wrongdoing. Sources have revealed that Andrew believes he is the royal who is most "at risk" due to his family connection in the Firm – as the late Queen Elizabeth II's son and the younger brother of King Charles.

A source close to Andrew told The Telegraph: "This is a clear demonstration of the fact that you cannot uninvent a member of the Royal Family.

"Regardless of the fact that Mr Mountbatten-Windsor has had his titles removed and is no longer a working royal, he still continues to face security threats.

"There is just as much of a risk to him from fixated individuals as there is to any active members of the Royal Family, if not more so because of all the publicity surrounding him.

"He has no choice but to remain the current monarch's brother and son of the late Queen Elizabeth II.”
