King Charles Is Keeping Epstein-Riddled Brother At Arm's Length Ahead Of Trump's Visit

King Charles' worries have reportedly skyrocketed amid his cancer battle thanks to his brother, Prince Andrew.  

Sources claimed the British monarch was dealing with a significant headache, trying to maintain the UK's amicable relationship with the US despite growing cries for his brother's prosecution.

An American politician began pushing for Prince Andrew's punishment over his relationship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The demands happened at an inconvenient time for King Charles, who is expected to host President Donald Trump for two days next week.

Sources spilled the tea about the fraught relationship between King Charles and Prince Andrew, noting the monarch was embarrassed by his brother's Epstein ties. His feelings of shame were intensified by South Carolina's congresswoman, Nancy Mace.

Mace has been pushing for Andrew's prosecution for his relationship with Epstein, especially for Virginia Giuffre's allegations. Giuffre, who died in April, accused Andrew of sexually abusing her when she was 17 after Epstein introduced them.

The allegations sparked Andrew's fall from grace within the Royal Family, leading to his status as a non-working royal. Sources told PageSix, the King had been keeping his brother at arm's length and would continue to do so while hosting Trump for two days at Windsor Castle from September 16.

Sources noted King Charles would welcome Trump to the UK with a lavish state dinner that key members of the Royal Family would attend. Naturally, Andrew's status as a non-working royal and his Epstein ties did not earn him an invite to the upcoming event.

On the other hand, the future King and Queen, Prince William and Kate Middleton, shall attend the dinner alongside other senior royals. Other sources noted the Duke of York wouldn't feel bitter about his absence because he feared the consequences of interacting with the US.

Sources claimed Prince Andrew shall never attempt to enter the US again because he feared prosecution. He was worried about getting arrested after Mace sparked renewed interest in his relationship with Epstein and his alleged sexual abuse crimes.

Mace's cries for Andrew's punishment went viral on X, with The Blast sharing that she penned her grievances in a series of tweets. She claimed now was the best time to prosecute the Duke for any crime he committed on US soil.

"A cold, dark cell. Prince Andrew in handcuffs. Sends the right message," Mace wrote. She added in a separate post that the royal must be held accountable following the release of the Epstein files, stressing that victims and the country needed to heal.

However, many slammed Mace's post as a "double standard." These critics argued that everyone involved in Epstein's crimes should be prosecuted instead of just one famous person. Others noted that the Royal Family had punished Andrew, while other celebrities and influential figures had gotten away scot-free.

News of Trump's upcoming visit to the UK follows the White House's rebuttal of his involvement in Epstein's birthday book. The newly released document featured a compilation of the birthday wishes the late sex offender received from several influential figures.

The book was reportedly created by Epstein's co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell, for his 50th birthday in 2003. Trump's alleged input in the book captured an imagined conversation between him and Epstein, written within the silhouette of a naked woman.

The final line of the note, per the BBC, read: "Happy Birthday - and may every day be another wonderful secret." The letter was signed in Trump's name; however, the White House claimed he was never involved in the controversial book, and the signature did not match his.

Last month, The Blast reported that sources had weighed in on King Charles' health amid his cancer battle. They claimed his condition had significantly deteriorated, noting his frequent appearances with a walking stick weren't for show but a necessity.

"He is now shuffling around with a cane – and hitting the bottle, and in particular whiskey, to numb the pain and despair he feels," one source claimed. Another agreed, noting the monarch was "facing a tough, losing battle with his illness."

An insider echoed similar sentiments, claiming King Charles numbed the pain through alcohol and cannabis. They alleged he grew a small crop of cannabis in one of the greenhouses at Highgrove, noting they weren't large enough to cause issues with the law.

Can King Charles host Donald Trump at Windsor Castle without Prince Andrew's ties to Jeffrey Epstein coming up?
