After being stripped of his remaining titles and evicted from his Royal Lodge mansion, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is reportedly clinging on to the royal ties he has left … the late Queen Elizabeth’s two corgi dogs.
Andrew Windsor “takes huge pride in looking after” the corgis
When Her Majesty passed away in September 2022, the then-Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, took on the Queen’s pet dogs, Muick and Sandy. The pets were very dear to the late monarch. In fact, she owned more than 30 Pembroke Welsh Corgis and “dorgis” throughout her lifetime.
Now, however, some royal critics believe Andrew should give the dogs up. This comes amid growing and ongoing speculation over his alleged ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The former Prince was again featured in the latest batch of Epstein files. These included an array of photos showing him crouched over an unidentified woman on the floor. Despite all that, the former Duke of York has always denied any wrongdoing in relation to the late financier.
“He takes huge pride in looking after the dogs,” a source told Radar Online of Andrew’s decision to keep caring for Muick and Sandy. “Many royals feel it’s inappropriate, but Andrew insisted his mother made her wishes clear.”
“He often says the Queen personally handed him the leashes,” the insider added. “He sees it as a sign of her trust – and a reminder of how different things feel now.”
Previously speaking about the corgis, Sarah told The Telegraph it was a “big honor” to care for them. She went on to describe Muick and Sandy as “national treasures” and added that they’d “been taught well.”
