À propos de ce contenu audio

Former Prince Andrew was arrested on February 19, 2026, by Thames Valley Police in Britain on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to his long-criticized relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The arrest — historic because he’s the first senior British royal in centuries to be detained — came after the U.S. Department of Justice released thousands of pages of “Epstein files” that include emails suggesting Andrew may have shared confidential British trade-related information with Epstein while serving as a U.K. trade envoy. Police questioned him for nearly 11–12 hours, searched his properties on both Sandringham and Windsor estates, and then released him under investigation; he has not been charged or cleared. Authorities are also assessing broader evidence tied to Epstein’s network and have reached out to former protection officers for any relevant information.

Looking ahead, the investigation will continue with the Crown Prosecution Service deciding whether there’s enough evidence and public interest to bring formal charges. Legal experts note that proving misconduct in public office — a common-law offense — is challenging, and Andrew could face serious consequences if convicted. Meanwhile, the case has ignited political and public debate in the U.K., including calls from lawmakers for independent inquiries into the monarchy’s handling of Epstein-related ties and criticism of past investigations into alleged sexual abuse claims. King Charles III has publicly stated that “the law must take its course,” and the ongoing scrutiny is raising broader questions about accountability for powerful figures.
