He may have retired from public Royal duties but it didn’t stop Prince Andrew performing a special Royal mission for the Queen last week. The Duke carried a message to the Chinese government from his mother on Friday expressing sympathy for those affected by the deadly coronavirus outbreak. It was delivered when he attended a dinner hosted by the Chinese ambassador to Britain, Liu Xiaoming. Pressure is mounting for the Prince to co-operate with the FBI, which is investigating the late financier’s crimes in the US. The Royal message came soon after Liu reportedly conveyed his displeasure to Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s father, Stanley Johnson, over the British Government’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak.
