The spotlight's on the Royal Family following the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. 

This follows allegations the former Prince shared sensitive information with late sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein.  

The family of late Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre, who also accused Mountbatten-Windsor of misconduct, told the BBC they celebrated after hearing of his arrest. 

Mountbatten Windsor's brother King Charles says the law must take its course.  

Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams told Ryan Bridge with everything in the public eye, it'll be hard to keep calm and carry on. 

He says it seems Mountbatten-Windsor's in for a very tough ride, but so is the Royal Family.
