According to the publication, Prince William and the Princess of Wales are allegedly worried about the impact the recent arrest of Prince Andrew may have on the health of the king, who continues to be treated for cancer. At the BAFTA ceremony, William admitted that he was “not in a calm state,” and insiders note that the couple would like to distance themselves from the scandal, but are forced to exercise caution due to the ongoing police investigation.
Police conducted searches at the Royal Lodge and Wood Farm, Andrew is on bail and, according to the report, lives in seclusion on the Sandringham estate. Investigative authorities are evaluating reports of the possible transfer of confidential trade materials and investment opportunities to Jeffrey Epstein in 2010-2011, when Andrew was a sales representative in Asia. Buckingham Palace expressed its “full and sincere” support and willingness to cooperate with law enforcement, stressing that the law must go its own way.
The newspaper’s sources claim that this scandal will drag on for a long time and creates an additional burden on William as the future monarch, as well as worries the couple as parents of young children. There are increasing demands for transparency in society, and the royal family is simultaneously trying to maintain a calm public image and not obstruct the investigation.
