Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is facing renewed calls to testify before Congress in the wake of the newly released Jeffrey Epstein files.
The former Duke of York, 65 — who denies any wrongdoing — reportedly ignored an interview request from members of the U.S. Democratic party back in November. However, as the National Enquirer’s source notes, “it’s becoming clearer by the day that this isn’t something that’s going to go away.”
Even British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has publicly spoken out about Andrew.
“In terms of testifying, I have always said anybody who has got information should be prepared to share that information in whatever form they are asked to do that,” he told reporters.

As did Vice President JD Vance, who revealed to the Daily Mail that he is “certainly open” to supporting bipartisan efforts to summon Andrew to the U.S.
“Not very long ago, a member of the royal family being pursued this way would have been unthinkable,” admits the source. “But Andrew also never imagined that he’d be stripped of his titles and kicked out of his home in the middle of the night.”
Andrew’s royal status “has always offered [him] so much special protection,” says Enquirer’s source. “The idea that he could now be treated like anyone else under the law is terrifying, and it really is looking like he will have to face some sort of consequences.”
There’s no question where the British monarchy’s loyalty lies, though.

“The king has made clear, in words and through unprecedented actions, his profound concern at allegations which continue to come to light in respect of Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor’s conduct,” a Buckingham Palace spokesperson said on Monday, February 9.
The statement also addressed reports that Andrew, who has long denied any wrongdoing, is being investigated by Thames Valley Police for sharing confidential information with Epstein.
“While the specific claims in question are for Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor to address, if we are approached by Thames Valley Police, we stand ready to support them as you would expect,” the palace declared.
