From the Daily News Now Network, this is Cory with Entertainment and Celebrity News today. Prince Andrew has faced big losses in his royal roles lately, but he still holds on to one key honor. The freedom of the city of London remains his, a tradition going back centuries. He picked it up in 2012, not through a regular nomination, but by inheritance from his father, Prince Philip. This sticks out after King Charles III stripped Andrew of his patronages in duties last year. That move followed fresh looks at his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier. At 66, Andrew saw most ceremonial spots vanish, but this city title stayed put. Many assumed every honor linked to him would disappear too. Insiders say people expected a clean sweep, but reactions highlighted how tricky these old awards can be, especially ones passed down through family. Officials at the city of London checked the rules closely. They found inherited honors fall under a separate legal setup. What looks simple, turn into a maze of regulations, blocking any easy removal.

For now, the title endures despite the scandals. It shows how rigid some historic rants really are, leaving Andrew with this unexpected holdover, thanks to our sponsor for supporting today's coverage. Some people meditate. I just lay down and press play. S-O-L-I-S-O-L-P-Lo.com.
