Remember when Covid was a great excuse to avoid an inevitably awkward event? Well, Prince Andrew has managed to test positive at a very convenient time, avoiding the glare of the world during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Andrew - ninth in line to the British throne - has been accused of child sexual abuse by Virginia Giuffre, allegedly trafficked to him by the late financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It all resulted in a settlement with Giuffre, with Andrew coughing up eye-watering amounts to avoid the case going to trial.
With all that money, as well as, we assume, the enormous bills at Pizza Express, you might think the poor Prince has been left bankrupt. Think again…
As of 2022, Prince Andrew has an estimated net worth of $5 million (£4 million), according to Celebrity Net Worth.
The Queen son used to have lots of titles - His Royal Highness, Freman of the City of York, Colonel of the Grenadier Guards, Patron of English National Ballet, the list goes on.

But he’s lost all of these over his links to Epstein, and nowadays Andrew is only in with a shot at one title: a song in his honour, ‘Prince Andrew is a Sweaty N*nce’ by The Kunts, hit the UK Top 20 in the run-up to the Jubilee.
He’s also been kicked off public duties as a royal, meaning his chunky tax-free salary of around £250,000 from the Royal Family is no more.
But he still gets to relax in an mansion in the English countryside, sold off another house for millions, and owns a seven-bedroom luxury lodge in Switzerland. So still doing alright I guess!
