The prince and the pedophile: Brits defend embattled royal

Questions are again being raised about the already embattled British Prince Andrew, after his association with another billionaire accused of raping teenage girls came to light.
Canadian Peter Nygard, 77, was last week accused in a class action lawsuit in the US of sexually assaulting 10 girls at his mansion in the Bahamas, a location visited by the prince.
These latest accusations have been made just six months after Andrew’s friend, pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, killed himself as he awaited trial for underage trafficking.
Surprisingly, despite the new claims, the public attitude to the royals has not changed much.
The lawsuit against Nygard has made no claims against the British Prince while Nygard has strongly denied all claims.
This new case comes just three months after the Queen’s youngest son stepped down from front-line royal duty following a disastrous interview over the accusations against him and his relationship to Epstein. This year has been tough for the UK royals but its unlikely to get easier anytime soon.
