King Charles Expresses Deep Sorrow Over the Loss of a Close Family Ally

King Charles is reportedly devastated following the recent death of Virginia Ogilvy, Countess of Airlie, a close friend and confidante of the late Queen Elizabeth II. This personal loss comes at a time of growing tensions between Charles and his younger brother, Prince Andrew.

According to The Sun, the Monarch issued a heartfelt statement mourning the loss of Lady Airlie, who had been a steadfast ally of the royal family for many years. Buckingham Palace released a statement in which King Charles expressed his deep sorrow over her passing.

“His Majesty was deeply saddened to hear the news, having known Lady Airlie for so much of his life and having so greatly appreciated her immense devotion and dedicated service to Her late Majesty over so many years,” the statement read.

The news of Lady Airlie’s death adds another layer of difficulty for King Charles, who is currently embroiled in an escalating rift with Prince Andrew. The tension between the brothers has been making headlines, with reports suggesting that Charles has asked Andrew to vacate the Royal Lodge, a residence he has occupied for years. However, it is believed that Andrew has refused to leave, further straining their relationship.

Sources close to the royal family have hinted that King Charles may be considering more drastic measures, such as evicting Prince Andrew from the Royal Lodge and potentially revoking his security privileges. These developments underscore the ongoing challenges within the royal family as they navigate both personal losses and internal disputes.
