The arrest of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, is an historic bombshell that raises uncomfortable questions about the monarchy and its separation from politics.

Andrew can only be accused of misconduct in public office because for 10 years he was an official trade envoy, during which time he’s alleged to have leaked state secrets to Jeffrey Epstein. But should he ever have been in that position in the first place?

And, as we recorded this show, the news broke that Lord Peter Mandelson has now also been arrested on suspicion of the same offense, showing the UK is at least holding people to account. Meanwhile, In the United States, where nobody is being prosecuted over the Epstein Files, there is a shocking lack of trust in the judicial system.

Joining Piers Morgan to discuss the scandal - and what it means for King Charles - is author of ‘Entitled: Rise and Fall of the House of York’ Andrew Lownie, CEO of Republic Graham Smith, Andrew’s confidante Lady Victoria Hervey, royal commentator Katie Nicholl and History Uncensored host Bianca Nobilo.
