The high-profile arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor in the Epstein case, which took place at the end of February, became the most high-profile incident of its kind in history, shocked the world community and caused serious damage to the reputation of the British royal family, which had already managed to strip Andrew of his title. Since the arrest, which was written about by all possible tabloids, the current members of the royal family, including King Charles III, Queen Camilla, Prince William and Kate Middleton, have remained silent and have not commented on the incident, which has caused serious discontent among citizens: demonstrations have already begun in London.

Thus, the other day, at Westminster Abbey, where the traditional service in honor of Commonwealth Day was held, protesters met the monarchs with posters reading “Not my king”, “Down with the crown” and “What did you know?”

If “If it turns out that members of the royal family, their staff, or the police were aware of Andrew’s crimes, then heads will roll,” Robert Jobson, author of The Windsor Legacy, told Page Six.

Palace sources say the royal family is actually “in shock” about what’s happening.

There have been many internal events that have rocked the monarchy, but the fact that a member of the royal family has been arrested is something else entirely. This is much more serious, – says the Page Six informant.

The arrest of the former Duke of York directly affected his daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who were not invited to the Ascot races this year because of their father.
