\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tThe British royal family may appear prim and proper to the public, but they\u2019ve faced their fair share of controversies over the years. One of the biggest royal scandals in recent memory came when King Charles III and the late Princess Diana announced their separation in 1992 after 10 years of marriage. At the time, [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
In the days leading up to the Easter holiday, multiple outlets reported that Beatrice, 37, and Eugenie, 36, would not be present for the church service<\/a> amid the ongoing fallout from their father Andrew\u2019s connection to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein<\/strong>.<\/p>\nIn October 2025, Charles officially stripped his younger brother of his royal titles<\/a> and honors. Nearly four months later, Andrew, 66, was arrested<\/a> on February 19 on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He was detained by police for approximately 11 hours before being released.<\/p>\nWhile Andrew and his daughters have yet to speak publicly about his arrest, Charles addressed the matter<\/a> soon after his brother was taken into custody.<\/p>\n\u201cI have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office,\u201d the king said in a statement at the time. \u201cWhat now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and cooperation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n![\"Charles-and-Camilla-GettyImages-2269322511\"](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Charles-and-Camilla-GettyImages-2269322511.jpg?w=1000&quality=86&strip=all\")
