‘Absolutely ridiculous!’ Charles Rae blasts Prince Andrew for latest ‘spoiled’ move in heated rant
Royal commentator Charles Rae has launched a blistering attack on Prince Andrew over his alleged refusal to walk the late Queen’s beloved corgis.
Speaking to GB News, Rae branded the Duke of York’s behaviour as “absolutely ridiculous”, accusing him of acting like “a spoiled brat who has just thrown his toys out of the pram”.
The criticism comes as reports emerge that Prince Andrew is “sulking” and delegating the walking of his inherited royal corgis to palace staff.
The Duke of York shares custody of Queen Elizabeth’s former pets, Muick and Sandy, with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson at Royal Lodge.
Speaking to GB News, Rae said: “This absolutely ridiculous. I mean, Andrew is very much on Santa’s naughty list, and he is acting like a spoiled brat who’s just thrown his toys out of the pram.
“And there’s no metaphorically kicking the corgis. It’s ridiculous.

“He’s got five other dogs there as well, so they’ve got to be walked too. And I’m not suggesting that Fergie is doing all the walking.
“It is tradition for royal flunkies to look after the dogs as well. I mean, even when the Queen had the corgis, there were flunkies around.
“He’s got no purpose in life anymore. I mean, from what we’ve gathered, he does set a lot of time on his sofa just feeling sorry for himself.
“He got himself into all these all these dramas and messes and everything else. I don’t know what else he can expect, you know that.
“People do not want to see him out and about. They do not want to see him with other members of the royal family.It’s a shame, really, because, I mean, Christmas is a time for families. We all know that.
“The naughty uncle should be allowed to come in from the cold and everything, but he just spoils his copybook all the time.”
An insider told The Sun that Andrew is “so down and demoralised he hasn’t even been able to get himself motivated to take the dogs for a walk”.
The Duke’s alleged refusal to walk the corgis comes amid fresh controversy over his connections to an alleged Chinese spy.
According to Britain’s High Court, Andrew had developed an “unusual degree of trust” with Chinese businessman Yang Tenbo, also known as Chris Yang.
The businessman has since been banned from the UK over spying concerns, though he denies the allegations.
Prince Andrew has stated that “nothing of a sensitive nature” was discussed with Yang and their meetings occurred “through official channels”.
The scandal has led to Andrew’s withdrawal from both King Charles’ pre-Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace and the royal family’s Christmas celebrations at Sandringham.
