Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson seemingly ignited a feud with King Charles with their unexpected move.
For the unversed, the Duke and Duchess of York stepped out from the program to join the royal family during the Christmas walkabout on Sandringham after Andrew's spy scandal.
However, the former couple was spotted in Windsor just minutes before the monarch's speech, sparking a new controversy about their surprise step.
The King's pre-recorded speech aired at 3 pm on December 25. Just 15 minutes before the monarch's annual message, Andrew was seen leaving his home, Royal Lodge, with Fergie.
It has been said that Andrew and Sarah's decisive step might not seen well by the royal family as the two allegedly tried to grab the spotlight from a big royal event.
It is pertinent to note that Andrew once again portrayed the royals in a negative light with his involvement with an alleged spy, who is barred from the UK.
Amid this new tension, royal experts claimed that the Duchess of York must have advised her former partner to avoid spoiling the royal family's Christmas celebrations with his appearance.
