**Since we published this episode, we've heard from Buckingham Palace about allegations that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor shared confidential documents with Jeffrey Epstein whilst acting as a UK Trade Envoy.

"The King has made clear, in words and through unprecedented actions, his profound concern at allegations which continue to come to light in respect of Mr Mountbatten-Windsor's conduct," the Palace said**

The Prince and Princess of Wales made their first public remarks earlier saying their thoughts "remain focused on the victims."

The allegations threaten to overshadow an important diplomatic trip for Prince William to Saudi Arabia – which raises its own questions over the use of royal ‘soft’ power.

Niall speaks to Sky’s royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills, who is on William’s trip to the Middle East.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has always denied any allegations of wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.
