Prince Andrew has long clung to the idea of a return to public royal life, despite mounting evidence that such a comeback is all but impossible. His self-belief that he could simply “ride the scandal out” and resume duties stems from pre-2019 days when he was a visible working royal. But after his disastrous BBC interview in November 2019 — widely regarded as a major turning point in his fall from grace — his hope of a return entered the realm of fantasy. One commentator called his plans “delusional” and argued that Andrew was still under the illusion that a few apologies or media appearances could restore his status.
