Queen Elizabeth's son says he has no memory of ever meeting Virginia Giuffre. He paid her a reported £12 million anyway. On his 66th birthday, police arrested him. His downfall started with one word he used about Jeffrey Epstein on the BBC: "Unbecoming." He said he regretted that Epstein had "conducted himself in a manner unbecoming." The interviewer stopped him: "Unbecoming? He was a sex offender." In the video below Prince Andrew answers, "I'm sorry, I'm being polite." Four days later he quit royal duties. In the same interview he said he couldn't have been with Giuffre the night she described, because he'd taken his daughter to a Pizza Express in Woking. She said he was sweating heavily that night. He said he couldn't sweat back then, because of an adrenaline overdose in the Falklands War. The £12 million settled her lawsuit in 2022. In 2025 his brother King Charles stripped him of his prince title and moved him out of Royal Lodge, a 30-room mansion he had been renting for a peppercorn a year. The arrest came on February 19, 2026, on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He was released after 11 hours and hasn't been charged. He denies everything Giuffre accused him of. Was he a naive friend who trusted the wrong man, or did that interview show exactly who he was?
