The Daily Beast Latest Articles | How I’ll Hold Royals to Account Over Epstein Ties: Royal Biographer by Vic Verbalaitis, The Daily Beast Podcast AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. British author and royal biographer Andrew Lownie, speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast, criticised King Charles III for his slow response to Prince Andrew’s ties with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, saying the monarch’s delayed action created a bigger public backlash and heightened calls for royal accountability. Lownie noted that after Andrew’s October “voluntary stepping down” statement omitted any reference to victims, Charles was forced to strip the former prince of his titles and evict him from Windsor Lodge, moving him to a private residence on the Sandringham Estate. Lownie is launching a campaign with former MP Norman Baker to push for greater financial transparency within the monarchy, warning that without swift action the royals will continue to protect themselves.

BBC News | Princess Eugenie's charity faces further scrutiny from Charity Commission AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The Charity Commission has opened a regulatory compliance case into Princess Eugenie’s anti‑slavery charity, the Anti‑Slavery Collective, over concerns about its spending. While the charity raised £1.5 million in donations last year—largely from a high‑profile gala—it distributed very little, carrying forward £1.3 million, and its most recent accounts (to 5 April 2025) show donations falling to £48,000 while salaries rose to £191,537, twice the amount spent on programmes. The watchdog has not yet drawn conclusions or set a timeline for the enquiry but is engaging further with the trustees. The charity, which supports victims of sex trafficking, has faced added scrutiny amid broader controversies involving Princess Eugenie’s father and his ties to the late Jeffrey Epstein; Eugenie also stepped down earlier this year as patron of a separate anti‑slavery charity, Anti‑Slavery International.
