Prince Andrew's last-minute absence from the Garter Day service at Windsor Castle was reportedly due to concerns he could be booed by the public.
The queen attended the investiture and lunch but not the service or the procession in another nod to her mobility issues and a scaling down of any official engagements that could cause her to stand for a long period of time or walk any distance.Duchess of Cornwall, was installed as a Royal Lady of the Order of the Garter, the highest accolade the queen can bestow on a female family member.
The situation with the disgraced duke has caused tension behind the scenes as Andrew is said to be keen to resume public duties now that he believes he has cleared his name. While the queen is publicly willing to show support for Andrew and sees her son regularly in private, Charles andare adamant that the Duke of York cannot return to any public roles for the sake of the reputation of the monarchy.
