Furious King Charles Bans Disgraced Prince Andrew From Royal Family’s Christmas Reunion Over Chinese Spy Scandal – Businessman Yang Tengbo Named, Denies Espionage Allegations
The latest Prince Andrew scandal has had many developments, and our suspicions were confirmed—Andrew will not be together with this family yet again this Christmas.
BBC reported:
“Prince Andrew won’t be at Sandringham for Christmas this year, royal sources have confirmed. It’s expected that Prince Andrew will withdraw from all family events to avoid being a distraction.
It follows his linking to the controversy surrounding the prince’s links to the Chinese businessman, now identified as Yang Tengbo.”
Speculation was rife that King Charles was going to distance himself from his brother after it was revealed that Andrew allegedly befriended a Chinese spy.
A friend of the king, quoted in the Daily Beast report:
“’His Majesty’s patience is wearing thin. He has stood by Andrew for many years, but everyone has their limits. I can’t see the king wanting to walk to church with someone who was friends with a Chinese spy’.
[…] Another friend of the king said: ‘Andrew is finished. You would have thought it would be hard to find a way to make things worse but somehow, he has managed it’.”
Documents show that Andrew invited the alleged spy to Buckingham Palace twice, and also to Windsor Castle and St James’s Palace, not to mention his 60th birthday party.
“The alleged spy was stopped at an airport under counterterrorism powers in November 2021. Officers seized his phone, which contained detailed information about their relationship. In one message, Dominic Hampshire, an adviser to the duke, told H6 that he sat ‘at the very top of a tree’ of Andrew’s confidants.”
Tengbo also met two former British prime ministers.
“The Daily Beast’s source said: ‘This guy clearly operated with impunity in the U.K. for years, meeting PMs. That’s not Andrew’s fault, it’s the security services’.”
However, Andrew has built a personal and business relationship with Tengbo for at least eight years.
The Telegraph brings a source in Andrew’s camp arguing the Duke should not be blamed for the affair.
“The Telegraph’s source said: ‘If it is true that the duke was targeted by this man and that this man in turn was on maneuvers in some way, I don’t see how that can be a criticism of the Duke rather than a criticism of Chinese operatives. It’s a bit mystifying’.”
Again, from the BBC ‘Live’ coverage: ‘I am not a spy’, says Yang Tengbo in his first comments.
“In a statement issued by his lawyers, he says he has ‘done nothing wrong or unlawful’, and that the ‘widespread description of me as a ‘spy’ is entirely untrue’.
