Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been reported to the police after a woman claimed she was trafficked for sex with the former prince at a royal residence.

Following the latest release of the Epstein files last week, a second woman, who was in her 20s at the time, has come forward alleging that she was sent to the UK by Epstein.

In a statement, Thames Valley Police said it was “aware of reports about a woman said to have been taken to an address in Windsor in 2010 for sexual purposes.

“We are assessing the information in line with our established procedures.”

It added: “We take any reports of sexual crimes extremely seriously and encourage anyone with information to come forward.

“At this time, these allegations have not been reported to Thames Valley Police by either the lawyer or their client.”

The anti-monarchist campaign group Republic earlier said it had reported Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to the police over allegations “he was involved in the trafficking of a woman to the UK for sex”.

According to the BBC, the woman’s lawyer, Brad Edwards from the US firm Edwards Henderson, claimed that the encounter took place at Royal Lodge in Windsor.

The latest update is the first time that an alleged survivor has claimed an encounter took place at a royal residence.

Campaign group Republic made the report to the police. The group claimed that, as the allegations date from 2010, they are covered by the Sexual Offences Act 2003.

The alleged claims made by the late Virginia Guiffre occurred in 2001, which means that they were not covered by the legislation.

Speaking about Andrew, CEO of Republic Graham Smith said: “I have reported the alleged crimes myself, to ensure they are reported as crimes committed in the UK, to ensure the police must now respond to a formal report.

“So much talk is about Andrew giving testimony to the US Congress, but he needs to be answering questions in a London police station.

“This isn’t a judgment on his guilt or innocence; it is an insistence that the law treat everyone equally. Anyone else facing such accusations would have been arrested and questioned a long time ago.”
