Buckingham Palace says King Charles has made clear his “profound concern” at allegations about the conduct of his brother Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and that he stands ready to support the police if approached.
The British police have said they are assessing suggestions that the former Prince shared confidential information with Jeffrey Epstein, during his time as the UK’s trade envoy. Mr Mountbatten-Windsor has previously apologised for his ties with Epstein but has denied wrongdoing.
Prince William, on.a visit to Saudi Arabia, has also said he is “deeply concerned” by the continuing allegations emerging from the release of the Epstein files.
