The Duke of York has been accused of 'hoodwinking' the Queen by not warning her he was about to discuss the scandal at length in a car crash BBC interview which aired last weekend.
Days after the disastrous interview was aired Prince Andrew, 59, said he was stepping back from his royal duties.
His performance in the interview has been heavily criticized and massively overshadowed Prince Charles' trip to New Zealand.
The Duke of Cambridge was unhappy with his uncle's behaviour and decided his removal from public life was 'the right thing to do', a source is reported to have told The Sunday Times.
Another said the dad-of-three and second in line to the throne had spoken to the Queen and Prince Charles about Andrew's future, adding: "William is becoming more and more involved in decisions about the institution [monarchy] and he's not a huge fan of his uncle Andrew."
