Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in a dramatic new chapter of the Epstein files investigation. On Talk, Julia Hartley-Brewer speaks to former Head of Royal Protection Dai Davies as police take the unprecedented step of detaining the King’s brother. With Thames Valley Police leading inquiries and multiple forces now coordinating, Davies says his first reaction was simple: “At long last.”
Davies tells Talk he has been calling for action “for nearly six years” and argues that the allegations around Andrew’s time as UK trade envoy are serious and potentially far reaching. He describes the case as a “Pandora’s box” with “enormous consequences” not only for Andrew but for the wider Royal Family. Questioning how senior palace officials handled early warnings, he says bluntly, “Stop taking us for fools, frankly,” and raises concerns about who knew what inside Buckingham Palace as the Epstein scandal unfolded.
In stark comments, Davies warns of a possible “conspiracy of silence” if evidence shows information was deliberately withheld, adding that as an investigator he would not stop at junior levels but would “go all the way up.” With Andrew now in custody and the monarchy facing intense scrutiny, this episode examines whether the arrest signals long awaited accountability or the beginning of a deeper reckoning for the institution itself.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor denies any wrongdoing.
