Andrew settled his lawsuit last year, accepting no liability and has always denied any wrongdoing. But Harry brings up the matter in Spare’s book about him.

Harry told him that there was an ‘obligation’ and an ‘implied promise’ to protect them.

Pressed by Meghan if he would ever be removed, he said: ‘Never. Not in this climate of hate. And not after what happened to my mother.

The Duke of Sussex adds: ‘Also, not after my Uncle Andrew. Despite being embroiled in a shameful scandal, accused of sexually assaulting a young woman, no one had suggested removing his security.

“People have had many reasons to complain about us, sexual offenses were not one of them.”

Prince Andrew has always denied the accusation.
