<p> A British prince is under siege.</p>
<p> On December 13, the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC) and other authorities revealed that a Chinese businessman who is a close friend of Prince Andreu, &#8220;His Royal Highness the Duke of York,&#8221; may be a spy.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The alleged businessman is Yang Tianbo, 50, a native of Yunnan Province; SIAC had previously referred to Yang as &#8220;H6&#8221; to protect human rights, but released his real name on December 17. According to SIAC, Yang came to the UK to study more than 20 years ago. He started a travel agency and has been able to stay in the UK without any time limit for about 10 years.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Mr. Yang became close to Prince Andreu through a venture business he founded to promote trade between the UK and China.&#8217; Mr. Yang, who was invited to Prince Andreu&#8217;s birthday party in February 2008, had been to Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, and had obtained the right to develop business in China as Prince Andreu&#8217;s agent.&#8221; (National newspaper reporter)</span></p>
<h2> [Mr. Yang] declined all contact.</h2>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> However, British authorities determined that Mr. Yang was a spy related to the Central United Front Work Department of the Chinese Communist Party, based on information from his mobile device and other sources. They decided to deport him in March 2011, hoping to strengthen their influence over the British Establishment and obtain confidential information. Mr. Yang appealed the decision, but in December of this year, SIAC upheld the British authorities&#8217; decision and dismissed the appeal.</p>
<p> Prince Andreou declined to comment on his relationship with Mr. Yang. I have not discussed confidential information with him,&#8221; he commented. Prince Andreou&#8217;s scandal is not limited to the &#8220;suspicion of spying on his best friend,&#8221; although he rushed to put out the fire. The current incident has rekindled suspicions from the past as well.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Prince Andreou was stripped of his military title by Queen Elizabeth, and retired from official royal duties in November &#8217;19. The kicker was an alleged sexual assault on an American girl that occurred from 1999 to &#8217;02. Prince Andreou was alleged to have had relations with an underage girl at the behest of a wealthy American businessman.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The wealthy American was indicted and convicted of 18 months imprisonment. Prince Andreou was not accused, but he was forced to leave his official duties because of the serious damage he had done to the royal family&#8217;s image.</span></p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" Tearful words from a woman defending the prince"></div>
<h2>If I were born again, I would still marry him.</h2>
<p> Prince Andreou has been criticized for a string of ugly stories, and did not attend this year&#8217;s Christmas party hosted by the king. However, there is only one woman who defends him.</p>
<p> His ex-wife, Sailor Ferguson, 65, whom he divorced in May 1996, is still on good terms with him. In an interview with the daily newspaper &#8220;The Times&#8221; on December 14, Ferguson said the following tearful words.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> [I will not abandon him. I would marry him in the same way even if I were born again. He is a wonderful man. Our wedding was without a doubt the best day of my life.</span></p>
<p> Although the couple parted ways for a variety of reasons, including the strict royal family traditions, their relationship of trust remains strong. Prince Andreu, who has faced criticism, must have felt some comfort from Ferguson&#8217;s words.</p>
