ANDREW UNDER HOUSE ARREST

Disgraced royal taken away as Epstein SEX SCANDAL ROCKS MONARCHY

-

BRITAIN’S scandalsca­rred Prince Andrew was shockingly put under house arrest as dramatic developmen­ts plunged Queen Elizabeth’s favorite son deeper into a sordid sex crime probe, palace sources tell GLOBE!

The disgraced Duke of York is being secretly held in a remote tower on the family estate in Windsor, where he was questioned by an FBI team probing the Jeffrey Epstein murder and sex slave scandal, a royal courtier tells GLOBE in a world exclusive. “Andrew has thrown the palace into an unpreceden­ted crisis because he refused to cut ties with Epstein, a convicted pedophile, and give up the globetrott­ing perks the twisted billionair­e provided,” charges the high-level palace source.

“He’s put the future of the monarchy in jeopardy and Her Majesty will do ANYTHING to save it — even sacrificin­g her favorite son!”

According to the source, the queen ordered Andrew’s detention after Epstein sex slave Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s explosive TV interview, giving lurid details of being forced to bed Andrew when she was just 17.

“It didn’t last very long — it was disgusting,” says Giuffre, 36. “He got up, said thanks and walked out. I sat there in bed and felt ashamed and dirty.

“I didn’t expect [to be] abused by a member of the royal family.”

She called BS on Andrew’s “ridiculous excuses” and the royals’ persistent denials that the encounter ever happened.

“He knows what happened. I know what happened. There’s only one of us telling the truth and that’s me,” declares Giuffre, who insists she also had forced sex with Andrew at Epstein’s New York mansion and during an orgy at the pervert’s Caribbean estate.

“This is a story of being trafficked, of abuse. I implore the people of the U.K. to stand up beside me, to help me fight this fight, to not accept this as being okay.”

Giuffre’s impassione­d plea left the queen, 93, humiliated and embarrasse­d, reveals the source.

“Seeing this woman tell her shocking story in person was truly horrifying and Her Majesty urgently convened crisis talks with senior royals.”

But even as they met, more allegation­s surfaced against Andrew.

Ex-housekeepe­r Deidre Stratton claimed he was “given” a “beautiful young neurosurge­on” for three days at Epstein’s New Mexico ranch.

“Tiffany Doe” alleged he shoved his face between her breasts at an Epstein party, while Johanna Sjoberg, 39, ac

cused him of groping her and will testify under oath to the FBI, which insiders say questioned the disgraced prince about his ties to the fiend, who was murdered in his New York jail cell last August.

Andrew’s also facing new charges he used his taxpayerfu­nded role as U.K. trade envoy to line his own pockets.

“Prince Charles was so outraged, he urged shocking action — Andrew’s arrest!” says another royal insider.

“He said it was the only way to contain the evergrowin­g scandal and save the monarchy!

“The queen immediatel­y ordered Andrew held under house arrest. She also decreed Andrew, a former naval helicopter pilot, be stripped of all military ranks and titles. She commanded him to tell FBI investigat­ors everything he knows about pervert Epstein and his sex-traffickin­g empire.”

Andrew, 59, was kicked out of Buckingham Palace and stripped of his royal status last month after he gave a disastrous TV interview.

He tried, and failed, to downplay his friendship with Epstein, 66, who was killed while waiting trial for sex traffickin­g.

Now Giuffre has totally torpedoed his royal future, say palace insiders.

She told the BBC show Panorama she was taken to meet Andrew at the London club Tramp in 2001 by Epstein and his then-girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell.

“Hideous dancer” Andrew was “raining sweat” all over her, she says.

During the car ride to Maxwell’s house — where Andrew was photograph­ed with his arm around Giuffre’s waist — she says she was ordered to have sex with the royal, long dubbed “Randy Andy.”

The next day, she claims Maxwell told her, “You did a really good job. You made him really happy.”

Andrew has publicly denied being in the club that night or ever meeting Giuffre. But a bombshell new witness claims she “vividly remembers” seeing the pair together and is willing to speak to the FBI, says Lisa Bloom, an attorney representi­ng Epstein victims.

“It’s the end of the road for Andrew,” dishes the palace insider.

“His reputation is shredded, and his entitled royal life — the only life he’s ever known — is OVER!”
