Prince Andrew is stepping away from his royal duties only days after his controversial interview on the BBC.
The Duke of York released a statement Wednesday saying that he asked his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, for permission to step back from his public duties for the foreseeable future, due to the increasing scrutiny surrounding his link with the late Jeffrey Epstein.
The intense scrutiny of Prince Andrew increased over the weekend after a cringeworthy interview with BBC’s “Newsnight” went viral, during which the royal denied having any knowledge of Epstein’s alleged child sex trafficking operation and the activities going on at Epstein’s many homes. A photograph of Giuffre and Prince Andrew has circulated online since charges were filed against Epstein over the summer. However, the royal claimed during the interview that he didn’t know how the picture came into existence considering he was picking up daughter Princess Beatrice from a pizza party that night.
