What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover or tap one to see who reported it.
Mr Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest followed the publication of material in the Epstein files suggesting he may have shared sensitive information with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein when he was the UK’s trade envoy between 2001 and 2011.
"As these legal proceedings are currently ongoing, it would be inappropriate for us to comment further."
Late last year, King Charles stripped his brother of his right to be a prince and of his dukedom over his association with Epstein.
The spokesperson said the hearing will concern a bid by Thames Valley Police to restrict access to court documents, with the hearing to begin in private.
