Royal brothers King Charles and Prince Andrew's strained relationship stems from childhood favoritism by Queen Elizabeth II, creating a rift that persists decades later.
According to the Daily Beast, sources close to Prince William claimed that he was instrumental in King Charles's official statement regarding Andrew's demotion. "Charles has been trying and failing to get Andrew out of Royal Lodge for the past three years," the source claimed. "William did it in two weeks. William is king in all but name now."
King Charles was thrown into panic over the future of the British monarchy when he learned Prince William and Kate Middleton were expecting their first child, fearing the stability of the royal line could be shaken if their baby was a girl.
