Kate Middleton 'Disgusted' By Andrew's Ties — 'Forces Him Out' To Protect Her Children's Future

The royal family is once again embroiled in a highly charged power struggle, but this time, the future of the monarchy is at stake, and Princess Kate is leading the charge.

The Duchess of Cambridge has moved far beyond her role as William's dutiful wife; she is now reportedly acting as an executive force, determined to clear the slate for the next generation, regardless of whose feathers she ruffles.

The friction between the current and future queens, Camilla and Kate, was impossible to ignore after a now-viral moment on 17 September.

During President Donald Trump's state visit to England, as Kate spoke animatedly with Melania Trump outside Victoria House on the grounds of Windsor Castle, Queen Camilla appeared to 'shoo' the Princess of Wales away, motioning for her to move along. This subtle yet public gesture spoke volumes about the mounting tension between the two women.

That tension reached its peak the following month when sources indicated that Kate and her husband, Prince William, both 43, were the driving forces behind the ousting of Prince Andrew, the King's younger brother.

This decisive move saw King Charles III, 77, initiate 'a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours' from Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, as announced by Buckingham Palace on 30 October. Andrew's biography page has since been removed from the official royal family's website.

A source confirms that Queen Camilla, 78, is not taking this generational power shift lightly, feeling that she and Charles are being 'bulldozed' by the younger royals. However, the accusation is reportedly 'sitting just fine with Kate', who is focused on the long game.

The mother of Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, is urging William to prepare to replace King Charles, who is currently receiving treatment for cancer.

'Kate's saying it's important they ascend the throne with everything in place,' the source claims, adding, 'she's also taking certain things into her own hands and making executive decisions.'

The Ultimate Goal: Why Princess Kate Demanded Andrew's Royal Exile

The core of Kate's current power play is an intense and deeply personal disgust for Prince Andrew's past. It is 'no secret she was disgusted by William's uncle's ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein'.

This long-simmering issue exploded back into urgent focus when Andrew's scandal was revived by the newly published posthumous memoir of Virginia Giuffre, who had alleged he sexually assaulted her as a teen.

Andrew, 65, had settled out of court with Giuffre in 2022, but the memoir brought the sordid details back to the front pages. In it, Giuffre wrote, among other details, that Andrew 'believed having sex with me was his birth-right' (Andrew has consistently denied all allegations). For Kate, this was a clear and present danger to the stability and respect of the crown that her children are in line to inherit.

'Kate is dutiful when it comes to matters that affect the royal family,' the source explains, 'and she's also extremely conscious about her children's futures and what they're in line to inherit.'

In her mind, the monarchy cannot move forward with such a devastating anchor of scandal attached. She holds immense influence over her husband, as 'He seeks her advice on issues relating to the monarchy's best interests,' and values her opinion because she is 'so fair and balanced'.

This unique access has allowed her to push for a permanent, sweeping solution.

The Showdown: Camilla's Fury and Kate Middleton's Remission Strategy

Kate's decisiveness has inflamed the royal household. Queen Camilla is reportedly 'fuming over Kate's power plays', revealing that 'She believes Kate and William are constantly undermining the king's authority and holding sneaky meetings with courtiers and leaving them out of the loop.'

Yet, Camilla's ability to retaliate is severely constrained. Kate's health issues—she announced she is in remission from cancer in January—mean that Camilla cannot risk being seen 'going too hard on her'.

Despite this, the Queen is not backing down, 'ordering Charles to ensure William and Kate don't get away with treating her like a second-class citizen'.

Meanwhile, William and Kate find Camilla to be 'pushy' and are 'exceedingly wary' of her. They feel no obligation to consult Charles and Camilla on their strategic plans.

This dynamic was underscored by a reported, yet denied by Kensington Palace, meeting in mid-October with Princess Beatrice, 37, and Princess Eugenie, 35, regarding their father, Andrew, and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.

While 'Charles mostly trusts William and Kate to handle things as they see fit, that doesn't go down too well with Camilla', says the source.

Amidst the high drama, the Prince and Princess of Wales continue to project business as usual.

They shared their hopes for a 'better world' in a video on X featuring finalists from William's Earthshot Prize initiative, and officially moved into their larger 'forever home' at Forest Lodge in Windsor Great Park in early November.

Camilla's ultimate fear is being 'relegated to the shadows once Kate is queen' and being 'marginalized once Charles isn't around'.

She is 'intent on standing her ground, which means a showdown with Kate will take place at some point. When that happens,' the source warns, 'it's sure to be explosive.'

This battle for control signifies that the next era of the British monarchy is already being shaped by the uncompromising will of the future Queen, Kate Middleton.
