<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prince-andrew">Prince Andrew</a> will allegedly no longer have access to an apartment and offices at <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/royal-family">Buckingham Palace</a> per orders of King Charles III.
The 62-year-old royal was apparently turned out by his older brother <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prince-charles">Charles</a> following the death of their mother, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/queen-elizabeth">Queen Elizabeth II</a>. Andrew had already been stripped of his official duties in the wake of a scandal in 2019, but up until now had retained access to the palace. Now, reports say he’s been kicked out of the royal enclave, too.
The Duke of York made headlines several years ago following the revelation of his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew was also accused of engaging in sexual activities with a then-17-year-old girl named Virginia Giuffre. The royal settled a civil suit out of court.
Though he denied wrongdoing, Andrew resigned from public roles in May 2020. The former working royal also had his honorary military affiliations and royal charitable patronages stripped by Queen Elizabeth II in January 2022.
Prince Andrew’s eviction is notable, but Entertainment Tonight <a href="https://www.etonline.com/king-charles-iii-removes-prince-andrews-access-to-former-apartment-and-office-at-buckingham-palace">pointed out</a> that the royal had not been using the apartment as his primary residence for some time. Instead, he’s been living with ex-wife Sarah “Fergie” Ferguson at the Royal Lodge at Windsor. For now, he still appears to have access to that property.
Queen Elizabeth was known for despising scandal and royal family drama. However, she always had a soft spot for Andrew, and royal insiders were surprised at how close the two remained even after the sex scandal plagued the British royal. 
&#8220;[The queen] saw Andrew very, very regularly right up until her death,&#8221; Vanity Fair’s royal correspondent Katie Nicholl <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/queen-elizabeth-remained-incredibly-close-prince-andrew-right-until-death">told</a> Fox News Digital shortly after Elizabeth’s death in September 2022. &#8220;They remained incredibly close, and she was very protective of him.&#8221;
Nicholl went on to explain how she delved into claims that Andrew was the queen’s “favorite son” while researching for a book about the royals. 
&#8220;She asked him about the Epstein allegations and about his relationship with Virginia Giuffre. They had a very honest conversation, and Andrew assured her that he was innocent of those allegations. She believed him. This was her son after all. And she didn’t just believe him. She stood by him,&#8221; Nicholl said.

King Charles III <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/news/6982112/king-charles-throws-prince-andrew-out/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a> evicted the disgraced Duke of York Prince Andrew from using an office at Buckingham Palace in the wake of his ties to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The 62-year-old Duke reportedly paid millions of dollars in an out-court settlement after Virginia Giuffre accused the Royal Family member of sexually abusing and raping her on three separate occasions in 2001 when she was 17.
Although Prince Andrew has denied any wrongdoing, the King has allegedly barred his sibling from working out of the Palace or using it as a corresponding address.
“Any presence at the palace is officially over,” a source told The Sun. “The King has made it clear. He isn’t a working royal. He’s on his own.”
The eviction comes after Queen Consort Camilla took over the Duke’s role as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards last week.
The Royal Household officials also stripped the Prince of his $3.5 million, 24-hour armed security last month after officials said they would no longer fund the service for the disgraced family member.
Former Home Office minister Norman Baker said last week that “armed protection has always been a status symbol for the likes of Prince Andrew.”
“Of course, he should pay it himself and not burden the taxpayer because he is a private individual and carries out no public duties,” Baker said, as <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11570663/King-Charles-finally-evicted-Prince-Andrew-Buckingham-Palace-Epstein-scandal.html">reported</a> by the Daily Mail.
The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/king-charles-iii-set-to-axe-prince-andrew-and-prince-harry-as-official-stand-ins-for-the-crown-report">reported</a> last month that the King could soon move to exclude Prince Andrew, Princess Beatrice, and Prince Harry from acting as official stand-ins if he should be “incapacitated.”
The Regency Act of 1937 allows a monarch’s spouse and the next four in line for the throne to be called up to act as “Councillors of State” — appearing on behalf of the King or Queen to conduct official business.
Buckingham Palace announced earlier this year that Prince Andrew’s military titles and royal patronages had been returned to the Queen after the royal failed in his last-ditch effort to have the civil case thrown out.
The Duke said in a statement at the time of the civil lawsuit that damaged his reputation he “regrets his association” with Epstein and had agreed to make a “substantial donation” to Giuffre’s charity.
Prince Andrew surprisingly joined his family for the Christmas service at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Sandringham, Norfolk, after pictures surfaced of the Duke walking behind the senior-most royals, including his brother King Charles III and the queen consort, Camilla, Fox News <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/prince-andrew-surprisingly-attends-christmas-service-king-charles-iii-prince-william">reported</a>.
Buckingham Palace has declined to comment to media outlets.

A <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/royal-family">Buckingham Palace</a> official has resigned after she allegedly asked a black guest where she “really came from.”
The late <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/queen-elizabeth">Queen Elizabeth</a> II’s lady-in-waiting, Susan Hussey, made the remarks during an event that took place at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday, per the <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-63810468">BBC</a>. The publication noted that she asked the background question of charity founder Ngozi Fulani. 
Fulani said she was &#8220;totally stunned&#8221; by Hussey’s comments. The 83-year-old former royal official is <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prince-william">Prince William</a>’s godmother.
A spokesperson for Prince William said &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/racism">racism</a> has no place in our society&#8221; and called the comments “unacceptable,” saying that “it is right that the individual has stepped aside with immediate effect.&#8221;
Eyewitness Mandu Reid, who is leader of the Women’s Equality Party, told BBC News that she found the comments by Hussey to be &#8220;offensive, racist and unwelcoming.&#8221; She also recalled having a &#8220;sense of incredulity&#8221; upon hearing the question.
&#8220;We take this incident extremely seriously and have investigated immediately to establish the full details,” Buckingham Palace shared in a statement.
&#8220;In this instance, unacceptable and deeply regrettable comments have been made. We have reached out to Ngozi Fulani on this matter, and are inviting her to discuss all elements of her experience in person if she wishes,” the statement continued.
&#8220;In the meantime, the individual concerned would like to express her profound apologies for the hurt caused and has stepped aside from her honorary role with immediate effect. All members of the household are being reminded of the diversity and inclusivity policies which they are required to uphold at all times.&#8221;
Fulani was attending the reception at Buckingham Palace as a representative of London-based charity Sistah Space, which supports African and Caribbean women who have experienced domestic and sexual abuse, the publication noted.
This isn’t the first time the royal family and employees have been accused of racist behavior. Former senior working royal Meghan Markle, who is half black, claimed during an interview with Oprah Winfrey that a royal family member had questioned what skin tone her children would have. 
Markle said that individual expressed “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/meghan-markle-claims-british-press-called-her-child-the-n-word">concerns</a>” over her son Archie’s skin tone and “how dark the baby’s going to be potentially and what that would mean or look like.” 
Prince Harry corroborated his wife’s story but refused to identify which person made the statements. “That conversation I’m never going to share,” Harry said.

Megyn Kelly absolutely destroyed Kim Kardashian as she explained why she thinks the reality TV star got booed Sunday at the Los Angeles Rams game when she appeared on the Jumbotron in Inglewood, CA.
During the Sirius XM &#8220;The Megyn Kelly Show&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXL8N_70LxA">podcast</a>, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/megyn-kelly">host</a> spoke with political commentator Andrew Sullivan about his <a href="https://andrewsullivan.substack.com/p/an-icon-not-an-idol-71f">piece</a> on the late-Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s passing. She said his piece dealt with how narcissism is everywhere as the two talked about the realization that we used to revere people like her and not a &#8220;false God&#8221; like Kardashian.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/screw-her-megyn-kelly-blasts-olivia-wildes-attack-on-jordan-peterson-says-metoo-was-never-meant-to-bastardize-men">Kelly</a> said at heart, she doesn&#8217;t think the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kim-kardashian">Kardashian</a> &#8220;is a bad person,&#8221; but added that she hates what Kim &#8220;stands for, what she represents&#8230;&#8221;

&#8220;So, I believe the reason they booed Kim Kardashian is because the country&#8217;s getting sick of narcissistic, vain, self-promotional, &#8216;rules do not apply to me&#8217; type of people, like her, like Meghan Markle,&#8221; Kelly shared.
&#8220;And I do think one of the reasons it&#8217;s in the ether is because the death of the Queen and the reminder of what used to be, what once was, what we used to once revere versus this false god of money, and materialism, and selfie culture, and weird decisions on extreme plastic surgery that one refuses to acknowledge infecting it into the bloodstream of our little ones and so on,&#8221; she added.
She threw it to Sullivan for his thoughts — and he said he wasn&#8217;t sure he wanted to add to Kelly&#8217;s comments, adding, &#8220;have you seen the latest photographs of Madonna?&#8221;
He admitted he loved the superstar singer back in the day, but said that appeared the star had &#8220;become addicted to youth and fame.&#8221; He said that there are methods in which &#8220;you can kind of look younger,&#8221; noting that Madonna&#8217;s face is now more a mask than a face.
Later, the former <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/take-your-fetish-behind-a-closed-door-megyn-kelly-blows-up-at-canadian-school-for-allowing-trans-shop-teacher-with-enormous-breasts-prosthetics">Fox News host</a> talked about Meghan Markle&#8217;s upcoming Variety cover — which Markle reportedly complained was &#8220;racist&#8221; because a message on the cover under her image read, &#8220;She&#8217;s just wild about Harry!&#8221; a throwback to an old song, per author <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/meghan-markle-accused-vanity-fair-165454184.html">Valentine Low</a> in his new book &#8220;Courtiers.&#8221; It can be seen <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkcCjd6E6mQ&amp;t=2s">here</a>.

&#8220;Anyways, everything is either racist, sexist, or wrong when it comes to Meghan Markle, despite all of the enormous gifts that have been given to her …&#8221; Kelly shared. &#8220;It&#8217;s back to my comment about the Kim Kardashian boos — I am cheering the downfall of this woman&#8217;s approval ratings. I&#8217;m cheering the authors who are bringing these stories out, so that people can see how petty and shallow, and small these people are.&#8221;

Royal family members said they are &#8220;saddened and in shock&#8221; after Queen Margrethe II of Denmark announced she was removing the royal titles of several grandchildren because it&#8217;s best for their future.
In a <a href="https://www.kongehuset.dk/en/news/changes-in-titles-and-forms-of-address-in-the-royal-family" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> from the Royal House of Denmark, the 82-year-old monarch announced that four of her eight grandchildren will no longer be identified by their royal titles, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/09/29/denmarks-queen-margrethe-strips-grandchildren-of-prince-and-princess-titles/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a> reported.
The grandchildren will be identified as &#8220;His Excellency Count of Monpezat&#8221; or &#8220;Her Excellency Countess of Monpezat&#8221; starting on January 1, 2023, the outlet noted.
All four of Prince Joachim&#8217;s children: Nikolai, 23, Felix, 20, Henrik, 13, and Athena, 10, will maintain their places in order of succession. Joachim is currently the sixth in line to the throne.
Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg — the mother of Prince Nikolai and Prince Feliz made it clear she was &#8220;confused&#8221; by the move.
&#8220;We are saddened and in shock,&#8221; Prince Joachim&#8217;s ex-wife shared in a statement from her press advisor Helle von Wildenrath Løvgreen, according to Danish magazine <a href="https://www.seoghoer.dk/kongelige/prins-joachim-prinsesse-marie-og-grevinde-alexandra-boernene-foeler-sig-udstoedt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Se og Hør</a>.
&#8220;This comes like a bolt from the blue,&#8221; she added. &#8220;The children feel ostracized. They cannot understand why their identity is being taken away from them.&#8221;
Margrethe, who is now the longest-reigning monarch after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/without-any-hesitation-we-booked-the-trains-to-be-here-thousands-fill-london-streets-to-pay-final-respects-to-the-queen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s death</a>, defended the move and said, &#8220;It is a consideration I have had for quite a long time and I think it will be good for them in their future. That is the reason,&#8221; <a href="https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/20220928152771/queen-margarethe-denmark-breaks-silence-stripping-royal-grandchildren-titles/?utm_medium=social_media&amp;campaign=hellouk&amp;utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1664396218" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hello! magazine</a> noted.

In the statement from the Denmark royal household, it said that Her Majesty The Queen in 2018 &#8220;bestowed upon her sons, their spouses and their descendants the titles of count and countess of Monpezat.&#8221;
“In May 2016, it was also announced that His Royal Highness Prince Christian, as the only one of The Queen’s grandchildren, is expected to receive an annuity from the state as an adult,&#8221; the message on the website read. &#8220;As a natural extension of this, Her Majesty has decided that, as of 1 January 2023, His Royal Highness Prince Joachim&#8217;s descendants can only use their titles as counts and countess of Monpezat, as the titles of prince and princess that they have held up until now will be discontinued.&#8221;
&#8220;Prince Joachim&#8217;s descendants will thus have to be addressed as excellencies in the future,&#8221; the statement added. &#8220;The Queen’s decision is in line with similar adjustments that other royal houses have made in various ways in recent years.&#8221;
The statement concluded with a message that the queen&#8217;s move is in hopes that this will &#8220;create the framework for the four grandchildren to be able to shape their own lives to a much greater extent without being limited by the special considerations and duties that a formal affiliation with the Royal House of Denmark as an institution involves.&#8221;
It is unclear from the report if the queen&#8217;s decision had any connection to the drama involving two of Queen Elizabeth II’s grandchildren Prince Harry and Prince William, their spouses Meghan Markle, Kate Middleton, and their children.

<a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/queen-elizabeth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queen Elizabeth II</a> passed away at 3:10 p.m. on September 8, 2022 — and according to reports, &#8220;old age&#8221; was listed as the official cause of death.
The National Records of Scotland released the Queen&#8217;s death certificate on Thursday, confirming that the 96-year-old monarch had died of &#8220;<a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/09/29/queen-elizabeth-iis-cause-of-death-revealed/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">old age</a>&#8221; and that her daughter, Princess Anne, was named on the papers as the &#8220;informant&#8221; of her death.
The longest-reigning monarch in British history, <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/breaking-queen-elizabeth-ii-dead-at-96/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queen Elizabeth II</a> had spent 70 years of her life on the throne. She passed away at her summer residence, Balmoral Castle, in Scotland just days after Her Majesty had greeted Great Britain&#8217;s new Prime Minister, <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/liz-truss/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Truss</a>.
The public word went out that she had been placed under strict medical supervision due to fears about her rapidly deteriorating health. Family members rushed to be by her side in her final moments. They publicly announced the news of her passing just three hours after she died.
&#8220;The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon,&#8221; the palace announced in a tweet. &#8220;The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.&#8221;

&#8220;We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world,&#8221; King Charles said in a statement, adding that his mother&#8217;s death was &#8220;a moment of the greatest sadness.&#8221;
The Queen&#8217;s partner of 73 years, Prince Philip, had passed away just over a year earlier in April of 2021. After the coffin <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/09/10/queen-elizabeth-iis-funeral-details-date-location-and-more/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rested</a> in several high-profile locations throughout the United Kingdom — namely the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Scotland and lying in-state at Westminster Hall in London — Queen Elizabeth II was laid to rest in a prepared tomb beside her late husband at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. Thousands came from all over the world to pay their respects to the late monarch, some waiting in line for hours and hours for the privilege.
King Charles III has stepped into his new role in the days since, traveling around Great Britain and greeting his subjects as they join him in mourning the only monarch most of them have ever known.

Harry had reportedly insisted on his wife accompanying him to Balmoral, but his father, King Charles, told it him that would be inappropriate.
“It was a massive snub,” a source told <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/19892627/harry-snub-william-charles-dinner-meghan-fury/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Sun</a> of Harry coming too late for the dinner.
Harry, also known as the Duke of Sussex, was staying at Frogmore Cottage, Windsor, when Charles informed him that Markle was not welcome with the small group of family, allegedly precipitating an argument.  That argument reportedly delayed Harry long enough that he missed his flight with Prince William and their uncles Andrew and William to Scotland, thus <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11240909/Prince-Harry-snubbed-Charles-William-Balmoral-King-BANNED-Meghan-joining.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">missing a chance</a> to say goodbye to his grandmother.
Another source has disputed The Sun&#8217;s story, <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/09/22/prince-harry-did-not-snub-king-charles-iii-over-alleged-meghan-ban/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">telling</a> the New York Post that it was other traveling difficulties that prevented Harry from making it to the queen&#8217;s bedside and that the dinner &#8220;snub&#8221; did not happen.
According to The Sun though, Harry caught a later flight, but snubbed the dinner with his father, Queen Consort Camilla and Prince William, instead eating with the Duke of York and the Earl and Countess of Wessex.
Prince Harry, who stated with Meghan Markle in 2020 they were relinquishing their roles as senior working royals, was banned from saluting Queen Elizabeth’s funeral procession to Westminster Abbey on Monday .
Reports have indicated that the rift between the royal family and Harry and Meghan ruptured when the couple refused to come to England for a memorial service for Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth’s husband and Harry’s grandfather. Harry claimed their absence resulted from an argument over security.
The British Home Office had made clear that Harry and Meghan were not permitted to fund their own security, prompting Harry’s team to issue a <a href="https://www.marieclaire.com/celebrity/royals/why-didnt-prince-harry-attend-prince-philip-memorial-service/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> saying, “While his role within the Institution has changed, his profile as a member of the royal family has not. Nor has the threat to him and his family.”
The statement added of the security the British were prepared to offer, “That security cannot replicate the necessary police protection needed whilst in the UK. In absence of such protection, Prince Harry and his family are unable to return home.”
Harry did attend Prince Philip’s funeral later, but Robert Lacey, who served as a consultant for Netflix&#8217;s “The Crown,” <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9726785/Prince-William-called-Meghan-Markle-bloody-woman-treated-staff-badly.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> of the reunion between Harry and William, “They started quarreling again.”
A friend of both men told Lacey, “There they were, at each other&#8217;s throats as fiercely as ever. The rage and anger between those two has grown so incredibly deep. Too many harsh and wounding things have been said.”

Prince Harry Missed Saying Goodbye To Queen Elizabeth In Quarrel Over Meghan Markle: Report

The question on my mind today is: Who is your queen? Who is your king?
It’s been especially on my mind as I watched Queen Elizabeth’s funeral and black America’s subsequent reaction, which has painted Elizabeth as a murdering, complicit colonist who doesn’t deserve praise or respect.
I’ve responded to the colonialist critique many times on previous programs and interviews. And I could easily respond to it now.
I think the more fruitful discussion lies in highlighting the stark contrast of how figures, such as Queen Elizabeth, are painted by woke scolds — and therefore many members of the black community — versus who they hold up and revere as heroes for the black community.
What you’ll notice immediately is that the black heroes are often criminals or, as I’ve repeatedly pointed out, characters who can easily be painted by the media as victims of an “oppressive” system. And black enemies are often figures with outstanding character, e.g. Queen Elizabeth.
The most recent example of this dichotomy comes from Uju Ana, a Nigerian professor from Carnegie Mellon. In response to the queen’s death, she tweeted something truly disgusting, vicious, and repulsive. “I heard the chief monarch of a thieving, raping, genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating,” she said.
I want to focus in on the word “raping.” You would assume that — because Uju so vehemently condemned it in the case of England — she would be against it in other cases.
Do you remember Jacob Blake? He was a black man who was fatally shot after his girlfriend called law enforcement on him over a “domestic dispute.” She had previously alleged she had been — I apologize if this is too graphic — digitally raped by him.
Uju Ana had something very different to say about rape then: “Jacob Blake is a family man. His sister Letetra Widman reminds us all that he has people and he is somebody’s people. No image you paint of him erases that.”
In other words, Uju Ana — and the media with her — doesn’t care that a black woman called law enforcement because she was obviously scared for her life. Nor did she care that Blake had been accused of digital rape.
This happens over and over again.
So again, who are the people we are told we should celebrate? Who are our kings and queens?
Consider Karen Attiya, a columnist for the ultra-woke Washington Post, who had a similar response to Queen Elizabeth’s death. She tweeted, “Black and brown people around the world who were subject to horrendous cruelties and economic deprivation under British colonialism are allowed to have feelings about Queen Elizabeth. After all, they were her subjects, too.”
But what did Karen — that’s a perfect name for her — say about George Floyd? Her words for Floyd were glowing. After his death, she suggested he win “Time’s Person of the Year.”
Floyd, who’s criminal record included multiple accounts of drug use, physical assault, and theft. Floyd, who’s alleged “victimhood” did nothing but damage to the inner-city communities destroyed by subsequent riots. Floyd, who’s name was used to legislate policies that have worsened crime in those same struggling communities. I explore Floyd’s troubled history extensively in my documentary “The Greatest Lie Ever Told,” which will drop very soon.
For Karen — and therefore the media and the Left — these hurting communities and their deeply rooted problems are never the focus. It’s always boogeymen like the white queen in Britain. Or it’s “uncle tom” Candace Owens, who has the audacity to criticize the heroes they crown.
This cancer destroying black Americans extends beyond the political sphere. It’s cultural as well.
So who’s our queen in black America today?
Beyoncé, who will often sexualize herself to sell <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljceAs9WMqY">products,</a> is our new queen. And we have other idols. Rappers, who live and sing about degenerate lifestyles. What food products do we allow corporate America to sell us? Popeyes, sponsored by a wonderful role model in Megan Thee Stallion, or McDonald’s, sponsored by Travis Scott.
It’s time for black America to return to the thriving culture it had before the Left began the great welfare experiment. Believe it or not, black Americans, before the 1960s, were well married and outpacing white Americans in terms of economic growth — all while enduring Jim Crow laws.
But this fell apart when president Lyndon Baines Johnson, an avowed racist, extended a government hand and offered incentives for mothers to not marry fathers; the government became the new surrogate father.
Yes — it’s time black Americans reject the degenerate culture and crooked heroes that the Left will continue to push.
It’s time we find new kings and queens which display repute and character. Or else we will continue to be destroyed.

It didn’t take long for the culture vultures to begin feasting on the recently deceased Queen Elizabeth II. 
Articles in newspapers, tweets from professors and chatter from TV talking heads all emerged decrying the Queen and her nation’s history of colonization. But one group remained conspicuously, and unusually, quiet about the death of a British Monarch. That group is American Irish Catholics.
For us plastic Paddies of a certain age, the death of the Queen is complicated. Growing up in my Irish Catholic family in Philadelphia in the 1980s the only thing we hated more than the English were the Dallas Cowboys. Maybe. For me, back then, England was not a domain of castles and knightly romance. It was the nation that starved half of Ireland to death in the 1850’s and under which Republican (in the Irish sense) hero Bobby Sands died in 1981 on a hunger strike in a British jail.
So, no, I did not share the sense of loss and sadness that so many, even Americans, felt at the passing of Elizabeth II. As the news developed, and it became clearer that she may have died, I thought to myself, “You don’t have to say anything about the Queen.” As I reached out to Irish-American friends (who shared my feelings almost exactly), I saw very subtle tweets hinting at the need to be gracious and quiet.
It is a strange feeling, to watch the world stop for a great figure’s death, to witness the endless adoration, the missives and messages on television and social media about their greatness, the profound and sincere sadness that takes hold, and to just not feel it. But at the same time, I felt no happiness, no mirth at the suffering of others. I felt no need to criticize Elizabeth II or her nation. 20 years ago I may well have.
And then I realized something. In the 40 or so years since I sat at my great grandfather’s knee, hearing stories of the Troubles in his brogue as he sat beneath framed photos of JFK and the Pope, my own attitude towards England has changed. My hatred had been visceral and very real. Though I no longer feel it, I remember it well. I eschewed British history, poets, and novelists. I made an exception for Shakespeare, consoling myself with the theory that he was a secret Catholic. 
But what I ultimately came to understand was that the disdain I felt was harming me. I am after all an American, and America is a child, if not an heir, to England. As it became clear to me (not until my late twenties) that to understand my own country I had to understand England, admiration began to mix with my malice. I could admire the Magna Carta, the speeches of Pitt, and the steely strength that this nation brought to two world wars. I could even admire the Queen. And I do.
All of this also happened at a time, in the late 1990’s when the Good Friday Accords were taking shape, when a new era dawned, one in which Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland had not settled old differences exactly, but had a functional framework for peace. And in the 20 years since, the Troubles have faded into memory. 
It’s not that most Irish Catholic Americans no longer have the goal of a united Republic of Ireland, many of us do, but especially with the sharp gains for Irish nationalist parties in both north and south, it very much seems that the Four Green Fields will live once again through political, not violent means. 
Something in my own family line ended with me. For hundreds of years, my ancestors and relatives passed down hatred of our oppressors — it was a birthright. A birthright I have not passed on to my own son. He knows the basic history of it all, but his chest will never tighten in anger at the sight of the Union Jack as mine did at his age. He will not experience the intellectual and emotional cage that I, and many others have found a way out of. For that I am grateful.
Queen Elizabeth oversaw nearly a century of history on her isles, she reigned over Bloody Sunday, and the H Block prison. She waived her royal waive while the rights of Northern Irish Catholics were trampled on. I do not forgive her for that. But she also reigned over the negotiations that brought about peace, and her grace, her sense of duty, and patriotism may well have helped her people come to terms with such change. 
My scar tissue is too strong to feel the pain of Elizabeth II’s passing, but as a Catholic I pray for her. And I can say that, under her leadership, ancient hatreds have crumbled — for that we can all be grateful.

For Irish Catholic Americans, The Queen’s Passing Is Complicated

A spokesperson for Canadian Prime Minister <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/justin-trudeau/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Justin Trudeau</a> responded to critics after video surfaced of him singing Queen&#8217;s &#8220;Bohemian Rhapsody&#8221; while in London for the late <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/queen-elizabeth-ii/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s</a> funeral services.
&#8220;After dinner on Saturday, [the] prime minister joined a small gathering with members of the Canadian delegation, who have come together to pay tribute to the life and service of Her Majesty,&#8221; the spokesperson explained in a <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-62965838" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>.
The statement went on to add several details — namely that the pianist with whom Trudeau was <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/little-high-trudeau-mocked-over-hotel-lobby-bohemian-rhapsody-singalong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">singing</a> was actually a renowned musician who also hailed from Canada.
&#8220;Gregory Charles, a renowned musician from Quebec and Order of Canada recipient, played piano in the hotel lobby which resulted in some members of the delegation including the prime minister joining,&#8221; the spokesperson continued, later adding, &#8220;The prime minister has taken part in various activities to pay his respects for the Queen.&#8221;
Charles, one of the delegates from Canada invited to attend the late queen&#8217;s funeral, told <a href="https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-queen-funeral-canada-delegation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Globe and Mail</a> that he had just sat down to entertain the other members of the delegation. &#8220;Everyone sang with me for two hours. That was the feeling, that was a lot of fun,&#8221; he said.
The prime minister took some backlash after the video — showing Trudeau singing along beside a piano, dressed in a dark red t-shirt — began to circulate on Twitter.

&#8220;I don&#8217;t think that Justin Trudeau singing Bohemian Rhapsody was disrespectful to the queen but I know enough about karaoke to assume it was disrespectful to Queen,&#8221; music journalist Adam Feibel added.

The British Foreign Office is red-faced and apologizing after inviting a Danish princess to the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bidens-in-the-bleachers-president-first-lady-seated-14-rows-back-at-queen-elizabeths-funeral/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">funeral of Queen Elizabeth</a>, only to rescind the invitation after realizing it was a mistake. The humiliating faux pas prompted an official mea culpa from the British Foreign, Commonwealth &amp; Development Office.
</div>
<div>
“The FCDO has passed on their profound apologies to the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/denmark" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Danish Royal Household</a> through the Danish Embassy,” a spokesperson said.

Princess Mary had been invited Monday’s funeral and was confirmed to attend, with the Danish royals RSVPing a week ago, <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11230315/Foreign-office-apologises-Princess-Mary-Denmark-invited-Queens-funeral-MISTAKE.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Daily Mail reported</a>.

But on Monday, the family followed up with a new statement that belied the royal indignity.
</div>
<div>
“Her Majesty the Queen and His Royal Highness The Crown Prince” would do their mourning back home, a statement said.
</div>
<div>
Some 2,000 heads of state and other leaders attended Monday’s service in Westminster Abbey, prior to the queen’s interment at Windsor Castle. The beloved monarch died September 8 at age 96 after a record 70-year reign. President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden represented the U.S. at the event.
</div>
<div>
The British Foreign Office on Tuesday confirmed to the Daily Mail that it sent an apology to the Danish Royal Household via the Danish Embassy. The mistake was deemed a “regrettable error” by the Foreign Office, which was pressed to send out hundreds of invitations in a short window.
</div>
<div>
Each guest was officially allowed to bring one other person, and with Queen Margrethe and her son, Crown Prince Frederik, on the list, there was no “plus 1” for the prince. The Australian-born, 50-year-old princess was left behind.
</div>
<div>
“There has been a regrettable error in the invitation from the British Foreign Office&#8217;s protocol,” The Danish Royal House said.
</div>
<div>
Princess Mary, who married Frederik in 2004, is a high-profile figure in European circles, carrying out numerous engagements on behalf of her 82-year-old mother-in-law and serving on organizations including the United Nations Population Fund, World Health Organization, and the Danish Refugee Council.
</div>
<div>
Still, the rules were apparently bent for other European royals. King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima, of the Netherlands, brought his mother Princess Beatrix, and King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, of Spain came along with former King Juan Carlos I, who abdicated in 2014, and his wife Sofia.
</div>
<div>
Danish royal watchers said the whole thing was embarrassing.
</div>
<div>
“It&#8217;s really clumsy and unfortunate,” said BT&#8217;s royal correspondent Jacob Heinel Jensen. “It has meant that the Royal House must now say that a mistake had been made, and that is embarrassing.”
