Former Prince Andrew, now known simply as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has been arrested by the very same police force that once protected him: the Thames Valley Police. He has been charged on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
Mountbatten is mentioned over 1,800 times in the Epstein files, including in documents that invite others to a “fun party” at Epstein’s Manhattan residence. He was a frequent visitor to the island, underage girls had sex involving girls and adult men is alleged to have occurred.
Mountbatten may have illegally shared government documents with Epstein while he was a member of the royal family. The crimes for which the former prince was arrested do not allege any sexual misconduct on the now-infamous Epstein Island.
Andrew has been stripped of his royal titles and banished to a small house on the Sandringham Estate. He was once nicknamed “Air Miles Andy” for his frequent trips and even visited Philadelphia in September 2022. He appeared very standoffish, not mingling with the crowd that showed up to see him.
When (then) Prince Charles visited with his wife, they were gregarious, posing for photos and shaking hands. Charles later became King and saw to it that his brother’s royal titles and accoutrements were taken away.
