On Thursday, King Charles took unprecedented action by stripping his brother, Prince Andrew, of all royal lands and titles.

The decision comes after years of controversy surrounding Andrew’s alleged sexual misconduct.

The most prominent accuser was an American woman named Virginia Giuffre, who claimed that she was sexually assaulted by Andrew while being trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein.

Giuffre took her own life in April, but today, her loved ones are celebrating the news that Andrew has essentially been ousted from the royal family.

Virginia’s brother Sky Roberts and sister-in-law Amanda Roberts broke down in tears while discussing Andrew’s downfall on the BBC show Newsnight.

“This normal girl from a normal family has taken down a prince,” Sky said through tears.

The family echoed those comments in a statement to People magazine:

“Today, an ordinary American girl from an ordinary American family brought down a British prince with her truth and extraordinary courage,” they wrote.

“Virginia Roberts Giuffre, our sister, a child when she was sexually assaulted by Andrew, never stopped fighting for accountability for what had happened to her and to countless other survivors like her,” the statement continues.

“Today, she declares victory.”

News of Andrew’s expulsion comes just days after the posthumous publication of Virginia’s memoir, Nobody’s Girl, in which she recounts the night when she was 17, and Ghislaine Maxwell instructed her to have sex with

“When we get home, you are to do for him what you do for Jeffrey,” Virginia quotes Maxwell as saying.

“Back at the house, Maxwell and Epstein said goodnight and headed upstairs, signaling it was time that I take care of the prince, In the years since, I’ve thought a lot about how he behaved.

“He was friendly enough, but still entitled – as if he believed having sex with me was his birthright.”

Virginia first came out with her allegations several years ago, and for a long time, it looked as though the royals would take no action.

But this week, Charles stunned the world with an announcement about his brother’s future:

“His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew,” reads the statement issued by Buckingham Palace.

“Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence.”

Andrew has not yet publicly responded to the Palace’s decision.

Ryan Seacrest has opened up about a heartbreaking loss.

The legendary host and television personality’s father, Gary Seacrest, has passed away after battling prostate cancer.

Seacrest himself confirmed this very sad news in a statement on October 31.

“It is with a heavy heart that I share with you that my loving father peacefully passed away earlier this week,” he captioned an Oct. 31 Instagram post. “My mom, sister and I have peace knowing he is in a better place and free of any pain or suffering. We are heartbroken.”

Earlier this year, the Wheel of Fortune emcee had revealed that his dad had been diagnosed with the aforementioned disease.

Continued Seacrest in his emotional statement:

“He was a devoted husband for 56 years, an incredible Papa to my niece Flora and my best friend. Dad, you will live in our hearts forever. I love you.”

Included alongside Seacrest’s social media caption were photos of Gary with his family, including wife Constance Marie Zullinger, Ryan’s sister Meredith Seacrest, her husband Jimmy Leach and their daughter Flora Leach.

Later on Friday, Ryan recalled his final moments with Gary during the Friday broadcast of his iHeartRadio show.

“It’s so vivid in my mind, but as he said without much strength or energy that he loved us and that he was going to miss us,” Seacrest told listeners.

“He looked over at me — and the power in the contact — he said, ‘Take care of your mom.’ And he said to my sister [Meredith, and her husband,] Jimmy, ‘Take care of Flora, my granddaughter.’ Then, literally a few seconds later he closed his eyes and said, ‘I’ve got to go.’ He knew. He was at peace.”

Back on July 21, Seacrest said the following during a segment on On Air with Ryan Seacrest:

“My dad is about 80 years old, and I have a very close relationship with my father. And my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer years ago and started his treatment. And he, it didn’t get better. It got worse and it spread. It didn’t go well for him.”

According to Seacrest, his father’s illness took a turn during the most recent season of American Idol.

“I was on an American Idol show live during last season and my sister called me and she said, ‘Dad is in the ICU. How fast can you get here?’” Ryan remembered, noting Gary had contracted pneumonia.

“I finished the show. We were almost done. I couldn’t even, I didn’t even remember what I was saying was on the show. It was, like, robotic at that point.”

After flying to his father’s bedside, Ryan made sure to treasure of some family memories.

“I watched [my parents] over the weekends send photos of smiling and happiness and being together,” he said at the time.

“They’ve been married for 55 years. And they’ve got each other. They’re just happy to sit together looking at an ocean. I want to share that because I’ve been holding that in for a long time.”

On Thursday, millions were stunned by the news that Prince Andrew had been stripped of his land and titles by order of his brother, King Charles.

The decision was a result of ongoing controversy surrounding Andrew’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged sexual misconduct.

After years of dithering on the part of the royals, it initially looked as though Andrew would not suffer any consequences.

Now, many are speculating that Charles will continue cleaning house by removing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s titles.

Is this the end of the royal line for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex?

In fact, Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan claims that with Andrew out of the way, Harry and Meghan’s days are “surely numbered.”

“It is now a question of when. Not if. The sun begins to set over Montecito — permanently,” firebrand journalist writes, adding:

“If the late Queen’s favorite son can be coldly ejected and stripped of his birthright — if William can have convinced the infamously conflict-averse Charles to renounce his own brother — well, Harry’s days as prince and Duke of Sussex are surely numbered.

“As for Meghan? Like Fergie, she would just be collateral damage. An afterthought.”

It’s odd that the piece is written with such a tone of moral righteousness, considering the author is essentially saying that underage sex trafficking is as bad as moving to a different country.

Yes, for years now, the British tabloid press has been comparing Andrew to Harry and Meghan, even though he (allegedly) committed actual, heinous crimes and they just relocated to California.

Callahan seems positively giddy at the thought of Harry and Meghan losing their royal titles and privileges.

So we have to take her with a grain of salt when she claims that an insider assured her it’s really gonna happen this time.

Royal source says Andrew is just the beginning of ‘bigger unraveling’

The source tells Callahan that the royals have begun the process of “picking away at the edges [of the family]” and that “a bigger unravelling is coming.”

“That bigger unraveling is, to my mind, Harry and Meghan’s royal titles, status and honors,” Callahan helpfully explains.

“The role William has — to try to forge something sustainable — is now in stark relief. And no, Charles isn’t up to that job,” the insider continued.

“Once Andrew stops being the convenient cover, then where will people look next?”

Look, it’s certainly possible that Harry and Meghan might lose their titles someday — maybe even someday soon.

That doesn’t make it any less gross that Maureen Callahan is comparing their situation to that of an accused sexual predator.
