Prince Andrew Refuses to Walk Queen's Corgis

Prince Andrew is reportedly refusing to walk the corgis he inherited from his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, as he grapples with a scandal involving alleged Chinese spy Yang Tengbo. His reluctance to fulfill this duty has left him dejected and has led to him delegating dog-walking responsibilities to others, reflecting his demoralized state. Andrew has pulled out of royal Christmas festivities and is expected to spend the holiday at Royal Lodge with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson. The ongoing scrutiny over his connections with the spy has heightened tensions within the royal family, with insiders describing him as a 'pariah'. His actions, combined with previous controversies, have reportedly earned him the nickname 'Duke of Hazard' among palace staff. This marks yet another chapter in Andrew's troubled royal narrative, following his loss of titles and patronages amid various scandals.
