Andrew

As the past few weeks have shown, British royalty and the media can be an explosive mix.

The absence of the Princess of Wales after abdominal surgery in January sparked uncontrolled online speculation that was first heightened by the release of a manipulated photo, then eased by a video statement from Kate disclosing that she is being treated for cancer.

Two Greek-American brothers, identified as Andrew, 39, and Angelo, 51, Hatziagelis, have been arrested in the Astoria neighborhood of Queens, New York, on suspicion of planning a campaign of attacks on high-profile domestic targets.

U.K. police said Friday that no investigation has been launched into Prince Andrew after an anti-monarchy group filed a complaint based on recently released U.S. court documents detailing people linked to accused sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Recent developments in the Jeffrey Epstein case have brought to light potentially incriminating information involving two former US presidents.

A New York judge on Wednesday began to unseal the identities of high-profile figures, including Prince Andrew, linked in court documents to Jeffrey Epstein, the U.S. financier who killed himself in 2019 as he awaited trial for sex crimes.

The legal documents contain a previously documented allegation of groping by Prince Andrew, which he has denied.

The Romanian organised crime prosecutors on Tuesday charged brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate with organising a criminal group, aggravated human trafficking, aggravated rape, unlawful access to a computer system, tampering with the integrity of computer data and instigating battery or other violence.

Netflix on Oct. 17 defended its latest series of "The Crown" after former British prime minister John Major lashed out at a story line showing King Charles plotting to oust the late queen.

Major's tenure as prime minister from 1990-1997 covered a turbulent period for the royals that included the divorce of Charles and his wife Princess Diana.

A key question around Britain's royal succession was resolved on Sunday when it emerged scandal-hit Prince Andrew and his ex-wife will look after Queen Elizabeth II's corgi dogs after her death.

The prince and his former spouse Sarah Ferguson will take on Muick and Sandy following the queen's death at Balmoral on Sept. 8 aged 96, Andrew's spokesman said.
