Furthermore, British police are now said to be looking into an allegation that Andrew asked a protection officer to uncover information about the aforementioned Virginia Giuffre hours before the picture of them together – used to establish a clear connection between Andrew, Epstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell – was made public.

In January of 2022, Queen Elizabeth stripped Andrew of his military titles and patronages amid a sexual assault lawsuit against him by Giuffre. Andrew ultimately settled out of court with Giuffre in February 2022 for an undisclosed sum. Giuffre died by suicide in April of this year, age 41.

Late last week, the prince revealed that he would be giving up his royal titles and honors. According to People Magazine, this is a bombshell decision that was only made after discussion with several other high-ranking royals, including Andrew’s nephew, Prince William, and older brother, King Charles.
