How Prince Andrew and Ex Fergie Are Privately Dealing With Epstein Crisis

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was released after questioning in a probe over alleged misconduct and sharing confidential trade information with Jeffrey Epstein, police said.

  • On February 19, 2026, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested at his Sandringham Estate on suspicion of misconduct in public office and released under investigation hours later.
  • A Feb. 9 complaint from Republic alleged the files showed he shared confidential information with Epstein, prompting scrutiny of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, following the DOJ's release of over 3 million Epstein pages.
  • Unsealed documents show continued contact, including an early‑2011 email to Epstein, examined by investigators, as Andrew left Aylsham Police Station after the operation using unmarked police vehicles searched Wood Farm and Royal Lodge.
  • Buckingham Palace said it had not been notified ahead of the arrest, while King Charles III expressed deep concern and support for authorities; family members are distancing themselves, with Beatrice and Eugenie described as horrified.
  • Legal risks loom: if convicted he faces a potential life sentence, commercial partners like Netflix are distancing, and experts warn the scandal risks lasting damage to Queen Elizabeth II's legacy and royal reputation.
