Scotland Yard Decides Royal Drama Not Worth Bothering Investigating
KEY POINTS
- •Scotland Yard confirmed in December 2025 that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor will face no criminal investigation in Britain.
- •Allegations include sex with a trafficked teenager in London and pressuring a police bodyguard to dig up dirt.
- •Mountbatten-Windsor’s connection to convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein led to his royal status being stripped.
In a dazzling display of bureaucratic déjà vu straight from the House of Windsor, Scotland Yard declared in December 2025 that no criminal inquiry will pursue Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the royal family’s unofficial audition for 'How Not To Stay Regally Relevant.' Despite juicy allegations that Andrew had sex in London with a trafficked teenager and then recruited his police minders to channel a low-budget spy thriller searching for dirt on said teenager, the Met stood firm. The dramatic scandal took place in London and featured a cameo by convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein—who helped Andrew lose that pesky royal status. After weeks of detective finger-wagging and coffee breaks, the Met just shrugged: 'Nah, not enough sparkle.' Thus, the saga continued, proving that even in 2025, certain scandals remain British royal tea time anecdotes rather than criminal cases.
