Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was apprehended due to his association to Jeffrey Epstein.

Andrew's association with Epstein came to a head when he was arrested on February 19, which was also his 66th birthday, by the Thames Valley police force in Windsor, U.K.

He was apprehended on suspicion of sending private trade envoy secrets to Epstein in the early 2010s.

Charles noted in a statement that he supports the authorities in investigating his younger brother. "I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office," the sovereign said.

The disgraced former prince could be removed from the line of succession.

"What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation," he went on.

"Let me state clearly: the law must take its course," the message concluded. "As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all. Charles R."

There are also heightened calls for Andrew to be removed from the line of succession, as he is still eighth in line to the British throne. This legislation would require an Act of Parliament, as well as the approval of the 14 Commonwealth realms.
