The Duke of York also hosted the son of the Tunisian dictator shortly before a popular uprising drove him from power — and the buildup of embarrassment has sparked calls that he be stripped of his role as special U.K. trade representative.

Buckingham Palace is in damage control mode as it attempts to keep the public’s focus on the April 29 wedding between Prince William and tabloid favorite Kate Middleton, his college sweetheart.

British officials have rallied to Andrew’s defense. The foreign secretary expressed his “confidence” in Andrew on Sunday, and a U.K. trade official voiced support for the prince to remain in the position, saying he does a “very valuable job.”
