Andrew Excluded From Major Royal Ceremony as Isolation Deepens (6/18/26)

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has reportedly been left feeling increasingly isolated after being excluded entirely from this year’s Order of the Garter ceremony at Windsor Castle. Andrew had participated in the event in previous years and attended its private pre-ceremony lunch as recently as last year, but his removal from the order meant he was absent from every part of the 2026 observance. A source described the occasion as a painful reminder of everything Andrew has lost, particularly because senior members of his family—including King Charles, Queen Camilla and Prince William—continued with the ceremony without him.

His exclusion followed the loss of his remaining royal titles and honors as controversy over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein continued to engulf him. Andrew was also absent from Trooping the Colour and is now living in Norfolk while police investigate allegations of misconduct in public office; he was arrested on suspicion of that offense in February and later released under investigation. Andrew has consistently denied wrongdoing, but his complete disappearance from major royal occasions shows how thoroughly the monarchy has distanced itself from him and how far he has fallen from his former position within the institution.
