Prince Andrew, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s third child, became embroiled in controversy (once again) in 2019 due to his connection with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Duke of York allegedly had sex with an underage girl whom Epstein procured, a claim Andrew and Buckingham Palace have denied on more than one occasion. Following a troubling televised interview on the matter, Prince Andrew stepped down from his royal duties in November 2019. Although this was the scandal that finally ended Andrew’s royal career, it was certainly not the first in the 60-year-old prince’s life.
