Prince Andrew has escaped further investigation from the UK's Metropolitan Police over the allegations raised in Virginia Giuffre's sexual assault lawsuit, in which she claims he forced her to have sex with him on multiple occasions while she was underage.

But that doesn't mean the legal battle is over for the Queen's favourite child, as he has until October 29 to formally respond to the lawsuit, and could face serious consequences if found guilty.

The Quicky speaks to a Royal expert to find out what his potential punishment could be, and what is happening to Ghislaine Maxwell, the woman accused of grooming young girls for billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his high-ranking friends.
