Prince Andrew spotted riding horse in unflattering pics while Fergie praised Royals’ ‘unity’ amid cancer battles

THE Duke of York looks neither up nor down as he rides a horse.

Deadpan Prince Andrew, 64, was spotted riding the steed around the grounds of Windsor Castle yesterday.

The disgraced Duke cut a casual figure in a burgundy shirt and black trousers, with a Champion riding hat and boots, while out for a canter with a friend.

The Prince, who was forced to quit his official royal duties over his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, appeared tense as he paused for a break from exercising his horses.

It comes amid reports King Charles has threatened to sever all ties with his brother unless he leaves the Grade-II listed Royal Lodge for nearby Frogmore Cottage.

Meanwhile, his ex-wife that she, the King and the Princess of Wales are supporting each other throughout their cancer battles.

She told the magazine “family unity is key”, adding: “I love that the royal family are all supporting each other and carry on.”

Fergie, 64, announced in January she’d been diagnosed with skin cancer.

It was her second scare in a year, after she was found to have breast cancer last summer.

She had a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery.
