What's Happening?
A report has surfaced detailing Prince Andrew's daily routine at the Royal Lodge, where he spends significant time playing video games like Call of Duty. The 65-year-old prince, who no longer participates
in ceremonial engagements, reportedly leads a life described as 'arrested adolescence,' involving late mornings, extensive TV watching, and minimal social interaction. Royal biographer Ingrid Seward notes that visitors to the Lodge describe Andrew as deeply withdrawn, with his life largely confined to the estate.
Why It's Important?
The revelations about Prince Andrew's lifestyle contribute to the narrative of his isolation and detachment from public duties, following his withdrawal from royal engagements. This situation raises questions about the role and responsibilities of non-active royal family members, especially those with controversial pasts. The report may influence public perception of the monarchy's relevance and the personal lives of its members, potentially affecting public support and calls for reform within the institution.
