The scandal surrounding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has the potential to end the reign of King Charles III, says a British historian who wrote an unofficial biography of the former prince.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the King’s brother, has been released from custody after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. 

Former British prime minister Gordon Brown urges British police to investigate whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor used taxpayer-funded jets and Royal Air Force bases to meet with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest has cast another long shadow over the York family. While his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, has vanished from public view, their daughters Beatrice and Eugenie face an uncertain future.

It will be up to King Charles to shepherd his family's institution through its darkest hour. But could his own mother have done more to snuff out this crisis before he inherited it?

The image, taken by Reuters photographer Phil Noble, went viral when it was published on Thursday. He says capturing the moment came down to a tip-off and more than a little luck.

Like so many of the elite caught in Epstein's web, Andrew believed he would escape scrutiny for his behaviour. But it is precisely because of his name and position that his alleged wrongdoing has now delivered him into the hands of the law.

Ostracised by his family and stripped of his titles, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor celebrates his 66th birthday with police. 

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has for years faced allegations over his contact with Jeffrey Epstein. These key moments led to his arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office. 

The former Duke of York has been released under investigation by British police, as officers continue to search his former Windsor home.

British royals have lived by the adage "never complain, never explain", but these days, many of their subjects are demanding answers.

Police are searching two addresses in the UK, including Royal Lodge on the Windsor Estate where the former prince lived until last year.

It was a new high, or low, in performative relationship management for a generation who believe a flipped screen and a full-face confession of "accountability" can solve any problem.

British police say they are "making progress as quickly as possible" on whether to launch a full investigation into allegations that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor shared confidential trade documents with late financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Donald Trump's enemies made no secret of their hopes the documents would contain something explosive enough to bring the president down, but right now the Epstein spotlight is on Britain's politicians and palaces.

Police have confirmed they are assessing information provided to them that former prince Andrew had passed late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein confidential reports while the former royal was British trade envoy more than a decade ago.

The Prince and Princess of Wales say their thoughts remain focused on the victims of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, in their first statement on the issue.

The latest release of the so-called Epstein files has revealed the convicted child sex offender was in contact with members of — and people close to — monarchies across Europe and the Middle East.

The portrait of Queen Elizabeth on two coins released by the Royal Australian Mint has drawn criticism, despite proving popular with collectors.

The thieves who robbed the famed Paris museum last October dropped the diamond and emerald-studded crown as they escaped, leaving it crushed and broken.
