Perspective with Heather du Plessis-Allan: Has Andrew really lost enough here? - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Well, even I didn't expect Prince Andrew to lose the use of his titles that fast.

It was about 5pm on Friday afternoon that I said that he would lose them - and about 7am the next morning, the news broke that he had.

But then again, I suppose we can see why it happened so fast, right? Because since that happened, it has just been one revelation after the other involving him.

First, the police are looking into reports that he tried to get his personal protection officers to dig up dirt on Virginia Giuffre, his accuser.

Then came the news that Fergie and the girls were among the first to welcome Epstein out of jail, and she kept trying to borrow money.

And now you've got the creepy detail emerging from Giuffre's book about how Andrew behaved.

Now, that is why the announcement about Andrew's titles came so quickly, because King Charles needed it to happen before the newspapers started printing excerpts from the book so that the stuff that came out didn't hurt the royals by association.

But honestly, I don't know that King Charles has done enough, because Andrew hasn't actually lost anything.

Which might be news to you, because the palace has done an epic spin job in trying to make it look like Andrew's given up all of his titles. He actually hasn't.

He is still the Duke of York, he just has agreed not to use it in public.

And I don't know about you, but we saw how that went with Meghan and Harry, didn't we? They were also promising not to use the HRH titles, and then Megs was busted using it in a private note to someone.

So what's happening now is that all the UK newspapers are unsatisfied and they're calling for complete stripping of the titles.

You've got the MPs coming under pressure to confront the royal family - just the sheer volume of coverage that this is getting at the moment over in the UK suggests that this could go on for days.

That is not what King Charles wants, because in a couple of days he's got a meeting with the Pope, and he will not want that meeting to be overshadowed by his playboy brother and all the revelations coming out.

I would say, watch this space. I reckon there's a better than average chance that Andrew hasn't even got his full punishment yet.
