"the Royals" reaction to any denouement after her Seth

Money and access to it. He's still got that.
His doting mother is perhaps the richest woman in the world and won't be convinced by anything, least of all a US jury verdict.
Which provides an additional incentive for him to settle, as "the Royals" reaction to any denouement after her Seth would certainly be less favourable to Andrew.

The incentives for both parties to settle seem stronger than those for a trial. Agreeing a figure seems to be far more difficult, though. How much money does he actually have with no royal titles, and where are his future earnings? Does he still get something when the Queen dies, purely as a blood descendant? Do his kids have independent incomes and what happens to their titles?

No, she doesn't have to settle, but one shouldn't underestimate how traumatic defence counsel can (and do) make it for victims to pursue their case all the way through trial (not to mention how intrinsically uncertain any verdict in a jury trial is).

An MSN news headline just popped up on my screen just now: "Royal expert says three photos have 'ruined' Prince Andrew"
I'm no kind of expert, but I would have thought bonking teenage girls with his paedophile mate was what ruined Prince Andrew.

This feels like a major development and seems to have been forced on Brenda, most likely by Charles. But at the end of the day he's lost symbols of power not anything else. Yet.

Might this not push him towards the settlement option? By all accounts his decision to continue with the case was to save his name (such as it is) and in his mind the key element of that would be to salvage his reputation with his beloved forces. Now that the forces themselves have officially dumped him there’s not much to fight for in reputational terms.

She isn't required to at this stage of the proceedings
Her prayer for relief is very much boilerplate
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests judgment against Defendant, awarding compensatory, consequential, exemplary, and punitive damages in an amount to be determined at trial; costs of suit; attorneys’ fees; and such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.

The problem would be that the settlement terms are unlikely to be cash only any more.
