Former prince Andrew<\/a> has appeared in public with what appears to be a large bruise on his face.<\/p>\n

The disgraced royal was photographed on Thursday driving near his Marsh Farm home in Norfolk, sparking speculation about the cause of the injury. <\/p>\n

Andrew has been living at the Sandringham Estate since February after he was removed from his former home, Royal Lodge. <\/p>\n

In photos taken on June 4, King Charles\u2019 younger brother<\/a> can be seen driving his Land Rover near his home and appears to have a sizable red mark on his right cheek. <\/p>\n

It remains unclear when and how Andrew, who has been called Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor since losing his royal titles last year, may have obtained the marking. <\/p>\n

Andrew, 66, has been under close scrutiny since his shock arrest in February. <\/p>\n

The sighting comes amid renewed interest in the investigation into Andrew\u2019s alleged misconduct during his time as a UK trade envoy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The scope of the investigation was recently widened to include claims of alleged sexual misconduct.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The official update from the Thames Valley Police came on May 22, as the disgraced royal remains under investigation for alleged misconduct in public office.<\/p>\n

In February, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor<\/a> was arrested, following allegations he had passed confidential documents to late sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n

Documents released by the US Department of Justice appeared to show the\u00a0former duke\u00a0\u2014 who served as trade envoy between 2001 and 2011 \u2014 sharing reports of official visits to Hong Kong, Vietnam and Singapore with Epstein.<\/p>\n

At the time,\u00a0King Charles<\/a>\u00a0released a statement revealing his \u201cdeepest concern\u201d over his younger brother\u2019s arrest.<\/p>\n

Following the arrest and search activity, Andrew was interviewed under caution and released under investigation on the same day.<\/p>\n

British police have since been working with the US Department of Justice to gather further information related to the case.<\/p>\n

The Thames Valley Police said in its release: \u201cIn addition to the investigation into misconduct in public office, the assessment of reports that a woman was taken to an address in Windsor in 2010 for sexual purposes is ongoing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andrew has strenuously denied any wrongdoing in relation to all the allegations made against him.<\/p>\n
