Prince Andrew Is Threatened With A "Public Prosecution" In The U.K.

In recent days a campaign group called Republic has announced it has instructed lawyers to investigate Prince Andrew for potential legal action over allegations of sexual assault, corruption and misconduct in public office connected to his past ties with Jeffrey Epstein and the claims made by his accuser Virginia Giuffre. The group says if sufficient evidence is found, it may proceed with a private prosecution in the UK — an “unprecedented step,” they say, given that traditional criminal investigation avenues have repeatedly declined further action.

Alongside the legal moves, Prince Andrew is also under institutional pressure: a parliamentary watchdog has publicly queried his use of the Windsor-Estate property known as Royal Lodge, pointing to concerns about value-for-money and privileges of his tenancy under the Crown Estate lease. This signals a broader erosion of the informal protections he once enjoyed. While Andrew continues to deny all wrongdoing, the renewed scrutiny from both public bodies and private campaigners suggests that the legal and reputational stakes for him have risen significantly.
