Prince Andrew 'asks Queen to restore his HRH status' as he's a ‘Prince of the Blood’

ok.co.uk:

Prince Andrew has reportedly asked the Queen to reinstate his HRH title due to his status as a 'blood prince' – being one of Her Majesty's four children.

Last year, the Duke of York, 62, found himself embroiled in an alleged sex scandal involving Virginia Giuffre, which he ended up settling out of court for £12million, causing the Queen to strip him of his well-respected royal titles.

According to reports, he is pushing the 96 year old Queen to be reinstated as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards, as well as reinstating his 'blood prince' status, meaning that he can join his other family members on official royal appearances and duties.The Telegraph reports that Prince Andrew would also like his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie, to be given more active roles as working royals.
