Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s funeral plans have simply “not yet been updated”, a royal commentator has suggested. Overnight, it was claimed in the Mail on Sunday that the former Duke of York remains in line for a full royal ceremonial funeral, despite being stripped of his official titles by the King last year.It is a discourse that could seem premature, given the 66-year-old remains in good health.And speaking to GB News, royal historian Rafe Heydel-Mankoo noted that, given Mr Mountbatten-Windsor is some 11 years younger than King Charles, a decision is unlikely to be made in the near future.”Issues around his funeral are not going to be made until King William is on the throne – and we know that the Prince of Wales has adopted the harshest of attitudes towards his uncle,” he added.King Charles stripped his younger brother of his royal titles last year after further allegations were brought against Mr Mountbatten-Windsor when the US Department of Justice released a tranche of files relating to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.Mr Mountbatten-Windsor had already lost his military titles and royal patronages under the late Queen Elizabeth II, his mother, after he faced a US civil action over sexual assault allegations, which he denied.Virginia Giuffre had sued Mr Mountbatten-Windsor for allegedly sexually assaulting her when she was 17.
