Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's daughter Princess Eugenie made her first public appearance following her father's arrest. Eugenie, 35, stepped out for coffee with husband Jack Brooksbank in London on Tuesday, February 24, according to photos obtained by People. She kept a low profile in a T-shirt, leggings, jacket, sneakers and a baseball cap. While spotted out and about, Eugenie, whom Andrew, 66, shares with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, was snapped speaking with a friend before returning to her car to her husband. Eugenie smiled at one point after previously keeping herself out of the public eye in the days following Andrew's arrest. The former Prince Andrew was arrested on Thursday, February 19, on suspicion of misconduct in a public office in connection to his friendship with late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew previously made headlines in 2019 when Virginia Giuffre accused him of sexually assaulting her when she was trafficked by Epstein as a 17-year-old. Prince Andrew and Ex-Wife Sarah Ferguson's Relationship Timeline Giuffre, who died by suicide in April 2025 at age 41, settled a lawsuit against Andrew three years after her allegations, while Epstein died by suicide in August 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Andrew, for his part, stepped back from his duties amid speculation into his connection to Epstein. "In discussion with The King, and my immediate and wider family, we have concluded the continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family," Andrew said in an October 2025 statement. "I have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life." He continued: "With His Majesty's agreement, we feel I must now go a step further. I will therefore no longer use my title or the honors which have been conferred upon me. As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me." That same month, King Charles III stripped Andrew of his royal style, titles and honors. "Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence," the palace said in a statement at the time. "Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease and he will move to alternative private accommodation. These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him." Prince Andrew's Ups and Downs Ahead of His Shocking Arrest Officials later confirmed an investigation into Andrew potentially sharing confidential information with Epstein while serving as the U.K.'s trade envoy - a role he held between 2001 and 2011. (Andrew has since been released after being arrested.) Charles broke his silence amid brother Andrew's legal woes. "I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office," he stated on Thursday. "What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation." Charles concluded: "Let me state clearly: the law must take its course. As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all."
