Recently celebrated Prince Andrew’s birthday. The disgraced royal has turned 62. And that without any banging and trumpets – because nothing was known about a birthday party against the background of the recent events. Instead, Prince Andrew was sitting almost alone in his home that day, according to The Telegraph magazine. Lonely than ever and without the bells of Westminster Abbey ringing, he celebrated his special day at the Royal Lodge, around five kilometers from Windsor Castle. Who gave the son of Queen still congratulated? Who is still with him in this difficult time?

Fergie congratulated Prince Andrew
The answer: His ex-wife Sarah Ferguson. The Duchess of York is his rock and the woman who believes in him and stands by him. Despite their divorce 26 years ago, the two still get along great. The abuse scandal has Andrew neatly added, yes Fergie hasn’t tired of emphasizing over the past few months that she’s convinced of Andrew’s innocence. It was she who, according to The Telegraph, visited Prince Andrew on Saturday at the Royal Lodge to keep him company on his birthday.
The royals didn’t respond
In December last year, the 62-year-old said these weighty words on an Italian talk show: “I stand by Andrew 100 percent.” Do their children Princess Eugenie (31) and Princess Beatrice (33) think the same way? It is unclear whether they also visited their father for his birthday. In any case, it is certain that the social media channels of the royal family remained quiet on Saturday and congratulations to Prince Andrew were probably preferred. There should still have been a few flowers and greeting cards, reported RTL. Footage appears to exist on the Daily Mail showing employees accepting gifts of flowers and greeting cards in front of Andrew’s house. Although the case that disgraced Andrew has since been settled out of court, it’s clear from events like the birthday that dark shadows hang over the prince. Shadows that fall not only over him, but also over those who would normally have congratulated him.
