King Charles has intervened publicly in the latest Epstein-related revelations, saying Buckingham Palace is prepared to support police inquiries into allegations involving his brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

A palace spokesman said the King has shown “profound concern” over the allegations, while stressing that the specific claims are for Andrew to address.

Thames Valley Police confirmed it is assessing a complaint alleging misconduct in public office, following documents suggesting Andrew shared confidential reports and investment details with Jeffrey Epstein in 2010.

The Palace emphasized that the King and Queen’s sympathies remain with victims of abuse, as public pressure and scrutiny of Andrew intensify, the BBC has reported.

Andrew has denied wrongdoing, and officials note that being named in Epstein files does not in itself indicate misconduct.
