Earlier this year, Andrew was reportedly arrested at his home in Sandringham on suspicion of misconduct in public office. According to reports, he spent roughly eleven hours in police custody while officers searched properties connected to him, including Royal Lodge in Windsor.
Police previously stated they were reviewing allegations that Andrew may have shared sensitive information with Epstein while serving as the United Kingdom’s trade envoy. These concerns followed the release of millions of documents by the US Department of Justice related to Epstein’s activities.
Andrew has repeatedly and strongly denied any wrongdoing connected to Epstein.
Fallout continues for the York family
The controversy has continued to affect the public roles of Andrew’s daughters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, even though neither of them has been accused of any misconduct.
Last year, King Charles III removed Andrew’s royal titles and asked him to vacate Royal Lodge, marking one of the most dramatic consequences of the long-running scandal.
