Prince Charles' closest aide Michael Fawcett is spotted outside his London home as he breaks cover after being forced to resign for offering Saudi donor help securing knighthood and British citizenship
[MAIL] Prince Charles's aide Michael Fawcett has today been seen breaking cover after dramatically resigning over claims he offered to help secure a knighthood and British citizenship for a billionaire Saudi donor to the royal's charity.

Mr Fawcett was earlier spotted walking his dog outside his London home after last night stepping down as chief executive of The Prince’s Foundation. He did not answer questions when approached by a BBC camera crew as he returned to his home.

The bombshell resignation came after he was confronted with a letter in which he said the Royal charity would be ‘happy and willing’ to use its influence to help businessman Mahfouz Marei Mubarak bin Mahfouz, who had given it hundreds of thousands of pounds.

The charity said that Mr Fawcett – arguably the Prince’s most trusted aide – had ‘offered to step down temporarily’ while its trustees investigate.

A former Palace official said the loss of Mr Fawcett was ‘an earthquake’ to the future King.

#3 Our founders especially despised inhereted aristocracy. And granted heraldic titles. So we have a country of old idiots worshipping "Camelot" and a bunch of young morons worshipping "prince" Harry and his mulatto "wife" because Oprah tells them to.
