The downfall and disgrace of Prince Andrew has taken another dramatic turn after he announced he was giving up some of his royal titles.
Reports have emerged that Andrew asked his personal protection officer to help with a smear campaign against Virginia Giuffre years before she filed a civil lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault. The prince continues to deny any wrongdoing.
What role did the King and other members of the Royal Family play in Andrew's decision to give up his titles? Why is this happening now and does the move go far enough? And could this lead to calls for a rethink over the future of the monarchy?
Niall is joined by Sky's royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills for the latest on the long-running scandal.
