400 Years Later: Andrew’s Arrest Shakes Royal Succession

Prince Andrew faces removal from the British line of succession after being taken into custody on misconduct allegations. The arrest was linked to actions while in public office — not his past association with Jeffrey Epstein. UK lawmakers are now considering new legislation that could permanently erase his claim to the throne. If passed, it would mark the first such royal succession shake-up in nearly 400 years. The move raises global questions about accountability, monarchy reform, and the future of the Royal Family.
