The second son of Queen Elizabeth II is accused of sexual assault in connection with the case involving convicted US offender Jeffrey Epstein.
American Virginia Geoffrey accuses Prince of sexually assaulting her about 20 years ago when she was 17 years old. Accordingly, the deceased American billionaire Jeffrey Epstein interceded.

The Queen’s son has resigned from his public duties as a member of the royal family since the allegations became known, but so far he has retained his military titles.
