The ski chalet has been up on the market for several years, IIRC. I don't think that the sale has anything to do with the Queen's willingness or unwillingness to pay his legal fees or any settlements, but more because Andrew has always been terrible about managing his money and he and Fergie have often spent lavishly and well beyond their actual worth.I read tonight that Andrew has to sell his ski chalet in Switzerland (where Fergie and the girls and their families have been holidaying this week) because the Queen has made it clear she will not be paying any legal fees or settlement with Andrew’s accuser. That doesn’t absolve her, of course, she has protected and coddled him for years, but poor baby! Not the ski chalet in Switzerland!
He isn't being accused of raping her. And her story has changed over the years.I have kids. If my son did something illegal, like rape a girl, I would make him turn himself in. I certainly wouldn't protect him.
I'm not going to get into a discussion about victim-blaming because that's not my intent here - what he did, in sleeping with a young woman young enough to be his daughter, is gross and pathetic, and he's just an arrogant, stupid man in general (let's be real, do we truly believe the Fergie cash for access scandal happened in a vacuum?), but Guiffre's story has some holes in it that a competent lawyer could drive a Mack truck through (not that Andrew's legal team seems to be necessarily competent, of course his arrogance might be hamstringing them).
