Prince Andrew cancels Bahrain trip as top adviser ‘sacked’ over interview

Prince Andrew has cancelled a trip to Bahrain as the fallout over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein continues, it has been reported.

The Duke of York was expected to travel to the Middle East this weekend as part of his Pitch@Palace project for tech entrepreneurs but has cancelled plans following reported pressure from his family.

It has also been reported his private secretary, Amanda Thirsk, has been removed from her palace-funded role and will instead become the chief executive of the programme.

According to the Daily Mail, Ms Thirsk was the driving force behind Prince Andrew’s Newsnight interview.
