King Charles III may have had a rather weak start to 2025, even though the New Year is only less than a week away.

Keeping an eye on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex isn’t the only thing King Charles would be busy with now that Prince Andrew’s infamous royal scandal made headlines.
As Andrew was accused of being a Chinese spy, former royal correspondent Jennie Bond called him a “pariah” within the royal family.
In a conversation with OK! Magazine, stated: “The King is a kind soul and Andrew is his brother. He would have liked to have been in the position of having to cancel his invitation or ban him from what promises to be a large family gathering.”
“It seems quite likely that Andrew sat down with Fergie, and possibly her daughters, to discuss the best solution,” Bond added.
“Fortunately, sensible ideas prevailed and he obviously realized that his presence at Sandringham would be an embarrassing distraction on a day that – this year of all years – should be all about the King and Catherine,” he concluded. which resulted in Prince Andrew skipping the royals’ official 2024 Christmas tradition at Sandringham.
