Andrew Mountbatten Windsor Faces U.S. Inquiry and Palace Eviction After Loss of Royal Status

Congressional investigators want his account of Jeffrey Epstein’s network by November 20.

Overview

  • Letters Patent published in The Gazette on November 6 formally stripped him of the styles Royal Highness and Prince, confirming he is now Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.
  • Buckingham Palace has served notice to surrender his Royal Lodge lease, with talks under way on alternative private accommodation and Sandringham reported as the likely destination.
  • House Oversight Committee Democrats requested a transcribed interview about Epstein’s operations and associates and set a November 20 response deadline, though Congress cannot compel a UK‑based non‑U.S. citizen to testify.
  • Reporting indicates potential new reviews by the Metropolitan Police and U.S. authorities, alongside a threatened private prosecution by the campaign group Republic.
  • Previous U.S.–UK tools such as mutual legal assistance requests and extradition provisions could guide any future steps, based on how earlier Epstein‑related inquiries were handled.
