King Charles has continued with his royal duties following the arrest of his brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, for alleged misconduct in public office. This morning, Andrew was taken into custody at his temporary residence on the Sandringham estate, an incident that reportedly took both the King and Buckingham Palace by surprise, as they were not notified ahead of time.

During his engagements, King Charles met with several ambassadors, including those from El Salvador, Spain, and Kenya, demonstrating an effort to maintain royal protocol and duties despite the turmoil surrounding his family. In a written statement, the King expressed his concern regarding the allegations against Andrew and emphasized that the royal family would continue to serve the public while respecting the legal process.

The situation highlights the ongoing challenges faced by the British monarchy, especially in navigating public scrutiny and family controversies. As the investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen how this event will impact the royal family’s image and its relationship with the public, particularly as King Charles reaffirms his commitment to his duties amidst personal family turmoil.
