King Charles is regretful about a decision made regarding Prince Andrew, according to royal commentator Charles Rae.
The former Sun royal editor joined Martin Daubney on GB News to discuss the Duke of York appearing on unsealed Jeffrey Epstein files.
A tranche of documents relating to the paedophile financier included the evidence of a woman who claimed Andrew touched her breast.
Buckingham Palace previously said the allegations are “categorically untrue”, and Andrew has always maintained he is not guilty of any wrongdoing.

Speaking on GB News, Rae said the new information is likely to make Charles regret his decision to invite Andrew to Sandringham on Christmas.
“The King is in a difficult position in so much as I think he made a mistake at Sandringham.

“That wasn’t an official royal outing, it was a family outing. He should have told Andrew not to turn up.
“I think he may well regret that decision.”
Andrew’s involvement with the royal establishment has been thrown into question before, with reports suggesting the monarch sought to remove the Duke of York from Royal Lodge.
Charles looked to move Andrew into Frogmore Cottage, a decision the Duke has so far resisted.
“The King has tried to kick him out of the royal residences before”, Rae said.
“That has reached a stalemate. The King will try again to oust him from Windsor Lodge.
“He will still have to have a house and I suspect it will be Frogmore Cottage, which is Harry and Meghan’s former home.
“Andrew is a very arrogant man and he loves to keep his royal trappings. He has got nothing left apart from riding his horse.
“The King is going to have to sit down and have a review of Andrew’s future in terms of the Royal Family.
“He won’t be kicked out, but he will certainly be curtailed in many ways.”
