Perhaps not, but the story is definitely inching in that direction. It certainly isn’t because he fell below the income/investment threshold, which is what Coutts have previously let slip, and is probably the only reason the public at large would be sympathetic about, as Coutts is known as the Royal family’s bank.
Side note, years ago when I was treasurer of the Christian Union at my uni I received a very generous donation from a student in the form of a Coutts cheque. I was suitably impressed by the bank’s name though at the time I had insufficient life experience to join the dots and realise just how utterly minted this bloke must have been.
. From that day to this, that’s my one single brush with the world of Coutts.
