The arrest of the former Prince Andrew is “an awful day for the evolution of an institution that has lasted over a thousand years and has sought at its heart to be of service,” a leading royal commentator tells NBC News.
“You can’t avoid this being the most horrifically embarrassing day, sad day, shocking day for the British crown to have a former prince of the blood arrested and to have him arrested and to answer questions on a charge that is pretty serious,” Alastair Bruce told NBC News British partner, Sky News.
King Charles III “has had a short reign so far and its been clobbered by now two things, first of all his diagnosis with cancer and now the horror of today with his brother at the center of these accusations,” he said.
“I think that for the king, he feels that he really must do his bit and fulfill the expectations that people make of him.”
