Former UK official demands probe into Prince Andrew sharing confidential reports with Jeffrey Epstein, sparking ongoing investigation.

Former UK business secretary Sir Vince Cable is calling for a formal investigation into Prince Andrew’s time as trade envoy, citing US Department of Justice documents suggesting he shared confidential reports from official visits to Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Singapore with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. Cable called the alleged actions “totally unacceptable” and urged police and the Director of Public Prosecutions to assess potential criminal corruption. Thames Valley Police are reviewing allegations of misconduct in public office, working with the Crown Prosecution Service, though no decision on a criminal probe has been made. The King has expressed “profound concern,” and Buckingham Palace said it will support authorities if needed. The controversy continues despite the King’s earlier decision to banish Andrew and strip him of titles.
