arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor His nephew may get a big relief. Prince William Reportedly demanded the dismissal of his uncle from the royal family behind closed doors. Andrew’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein led to him losing his title of Prince and being expelled from the Royal Lodge. On Thursday he was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
According to a royal insider, William always viewed his uncle as a “threat to the monarchy.” Andrew is the first senior British royal member to be arrested since King Charles I in 1647.
Former Prince Andrew continues to cause chaos for the royal family
Even if he has not been found guilty in any case, Andrew is unlikely to get any sympathy from the future king. An insider tells radaronline In William’s eyes, Andrew has only brought “shame and disgrace to the royal family”. Andrew has always denied wrongdoing in Jeffrey’s sex trafficking scandal. However, he settled a lawsuit against Virginia Giuffre out of court. The late Australian claimed she was trafficked to Andrew when she was 17 years old.
William has promised that he will rule the kingdom with an iron fist when he takes power. He has said that there will be zero tolerance towards scams like his uncle’s. The Prince has called for Andrew to be deported. Another insider says William and his family were sick and tired of all the embarrassment Andrew caused them.
Andrew was released hours after his arrest, although it is unclear whether he was on bail. The former royal was photographed in a car leaving Aylsham police station in Norfolk at around 7pm local time in the UK. King Charles said immediately after his brother’s release that investigators would receive full cooperation in the case. He said that the law should take its course.
Even before his relationship with Jeffrey, William reportedly never trusted his uncle. Insiders claim the future king saw how Charles’ brother treated palace staff and never made eye contact with him. William reportedly saw Andrew’s issues as something that could come up again and again, reducing public confidence in the royal family.
