Former Prince Andrew is under arrest by police in England following news of his longtime friendship with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

The disgraced ex-royal, who now goes by the name Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was apprehended by Thames Valley Police officers at his home today on his 66th birthday.

The police department issued a press release, saying a man in his 60s was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office, and that officers are currently searching two addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk, which are located in the eastern part of England. The release noted police “we will not be naming the arrested man, as per national guidance.”

As you know, Andrew had close ties with Epstein over the years while the notorious pedophile was allegedly sexually abusing underage girls. Andrew’s name is all over the Epstein Files, which were released by the Department of Justice after President Trump signed a bill requiring them to be made public.

In the Epstein Files, Andrew is pictured kneeling over an unidentified woman sprawled out on a floor, touching her stomach over her shirt. Last October, Andrew was stripped of his royal titles due to his association with Epstein.

In 2019, Epstein died by suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges.
