As Prince Andrew faces fallout over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, take a look at other royal scandals.

Fallout from Prince Andrew’s former friendship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and allegations that he slept with a teenage girl kept the disgraced royal away from Tuesday night’s NATO reception in London. But the 59-year-old Brit — who has been pulled from official duties following a controversial interview about his Epstein connection — isn’t the only modern-day royal to be caught up in a scandal, nor is he the only one linked to Epstein.

“I would never have had anything to do with Epstein if I had been aware of the seriousness of his criminal acts,” the statement read in reference to numerous meetings with the disgraced financier between 2011 and 2013. “I should have examined Epstein’s past more closely, and I regret that I did not.”

Princess Stéphanie of MonacoLike her brother Albert, the younger daughter of Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier III has made headlines with her personal life. The former model and singer dated Rob Lowe before romancing her bodyguard Daniel Ducruet; though their two children were born prior to their 1995 wedding, the nuptials secured them as legitimate heirs to the throne.

Princess Michael of KentWife to Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin Prince Michael, Baroness Marie Christine Anna Agnes Hedwig Ida von Reibnitz was born shortly after her German father was dismissed from the Nazi Party and SS Cavalry Corps. A tabloid favorite who’s been busted gossiping about other royals — including Princess Diana, whom she called “bitter” and “nasty” — and complaining about her financial situation, the 74-year-old has been criticized for her comments on race.

Here Are Photos of Trump With Prince Andrew, Whom He Says He Doesn’t KnowPresident Trump on Tuesday claimed to not know Prince Andrew despite multiple pictures of the two men together taken over the years Trump is a liar. He does have dementia so entirely possible he forgot about all the times they hung out 🤷🏻‍♂️ Stupidest article I have ever read. All photos are from gala type events. I can show you two pics of Jennifer Love Hewitt hugging me at a film festival 16 years ago. I guarantee she doesn’t know me. I wish I could say otherwise. This is crap journalism....

Trump claims he doesn't know Prince Andrew, but once called him 'a lot of fun''I don't know Prince Andrew,' President Trump says of the British prince who he has met multiple times. In 2000, he told People Magazine that the prince is 'not pretentious' and 'a lot of fun to be with.' Is it me or Trump never seems to know anyone he already knows? AkiresHenri Why do they all look scared?! This is why I say prince andrew is taking the heat for the only one partying with epstein but trump did too! (allegedly) stop thinking trump is so innocent Idk why people don’t tell the truth. I don’t want to call him a liar because maybe he doesn’t remember ever being n Prince Andrews company. That’s fair enough but those pics are not a good look.
