The former Duke of York reportedly sent Jeffrey Epstein private travel documents.

Thames Valley cops apprehended Andrew and kept him in custody for 11 hours at the time. He was detained due to allegations he sent Epstein private travel documents when he served as the U.K.'s trade envoy in the early 2010s.

Andrew was also not invited to sister Princess Anne's son Peter Phillips' wedding to NHS nurse Harriet Sperling earlier this month.

The Royal Navy veteran allegedly told his staff he has regret over how things turned out following his scandals with Epstein.

'My life has been turned upside down,' ex-Prince Andrew reportedly told his staff.

Royal author Andrew Lownie released an updated version of his book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York earlier this year, and it claimed the ex-prince had feelings of loneliness.

Andrew reportedly told his employee: “It’s been very hard to deal with. The hardest thing was how it affected my family and put so much burden on them. For that, I’m sorry beyond words, and unfortunately, will have to bear that regret for the rest of my life."

“My life has been turned upside down, and often I feel a deep-rooted sense of being alone in the world. I need to establish new routines and networks. Perhaps I’ll end up doing it somewhere else," Queen Elizabeth's favorite son allegedly confessed.

"I’ve been completely misunderstood, and I’m hopeful that one day the naked truth will finally let out," Andrew apparently said.
