Arrest and Ongoing Investigation
Their appearance comes days after ex-Prince Andrew was arrested and held in custody for 12 hours on his 66th birthday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
The investigation relates to allegations raised in the latest release of Epstein files, specifically claims that Andrew shared confidential information with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein during his time as a UK trade envoy.
Andrew was later released under investigation, and searches of his former Windsor residence, Royal Lodge, remain ongoing.
King Charles responded swiftly to the arrest, expressing his “deepest concern” and confirming that police have his “wholehearted support and co-operation” as enquiries continue.
Andrew has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
