Well now I know for certain that Prince Andrew is innocent of all charges. Because rather than drag that poor woman (though not ‘poor’ for much longer) through a messy autopsy of her early life, subjecting her to a legal character assassination, instead he’s decided to ‘make it all go away’. But for her benefit. Virginia Du Pres. Du-freit, Dufffreys… her. And that sacrifice, unselfishly distributing over 10 million pounds of his mother’s immense fortune, means that Virginia is liberated from the trauma. In Saudi Arabia, their legal systems allows for people to buy their way out of, in many cases, murder. And apparently that works in America too now. And, so it would seem, England. I know, there’s a difference between ‘civil’ and ‘criminal’ law, but not evidently, that big a difference.

So well done Prince Andrew. Now he can get on with his life once more, contributing to the nation’s… whatever, serving the people by… errrrr… wearing lots of medals and just being an all-round good guy, once again. Oh, he can’t do that, he’s persona non grata in the Royal households. Well he can do charity work. That’d be nice. And he wants to. He wants to help ‘victims of abuse’. But not just people that he’s personally abused, but others too. And I’m sure he is the man perfectly placed to be of immense benefit in that sector.

There are those, probably anti-royals who haven’t had a crush on the hunkiest of Princes since Koo Stark days, who think that Andrew just ‘buckled’ under the potential shame and humiliation that a court case would inevitably bring. Most unfair. There are others who think that its somewhat odd giving all that money to someone who he apparently ‘has no recollection of meeting’. To them I say just that there are some people in this world whose very status and family history leaves them totally and absolutely free from any possible untruths or doubt, let alone immoral behaviour!! To be a Royal means something. To me, definitely to Prince Andrew. Possibly to Henry VIIIth, probably Edward VIIth. Though I won’t mention Edward VIIIth.

Happy Royal Support day

A xxxx
