John Oliver Lashes King Charles for ‘Protecting’ Andrew
Key Points:
- John Oliver criticized King Charles III's attempts to distance himself from his brother, former Prince Andrew, following Andrew's arrest related to sexual abuse allegations linked to the Epstein case.
- King Charles reportedly moved Andrew from Windsor Great Park to a more isolated location at Sandringham estate after Andrew was seen publicly riding his horse and engaging with photographers.
- Oliver mocked the king's formal statement expressing "deepest concern" over Andrew's misconduct suspicions, accusing Charles of long protecting his brother despite public scrutiny.
- The British public remains curious about King Charles's prior knowledge of Andrew's actions, especially regarding a $15 million settlement reached in 2022 with accuser Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide in 2025.
