Royal Shockwave: Former Prince Andrew Arrested Amid Epstein-Linked Misconduct Probe

 

Britain's Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, looks round as he leaves after attending the Easter Matins Service at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, England, April 20, 2025.                                    

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, was arrested on Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office following renewed scrutiny of his ties to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The arrest, carried out by Thames Valley Police at the Sandringham estate, marks an unprecedented moment in modern British royal history.

Authorities are investigating allegations that Andrew may have shared confidential information with Epstein during his tenure as the UK's trade envoy. The arrest coincided with his 66th birthday and followed the release of extensive files related to Epstein, intensifying public and political pressure. 

King Charles expressed “deepest concern” and emphasized that “the law must take its course,” underscoring the seriousness with which the monarchy is treating the situation. Police have also conducted searches at multiple properties linked to Andrew as part of the ongoing investigation.

The case continues to unfold, with UK officials reiterating that no individual—royal or otherwise—is above the law.
