Australian political leaders have described the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor as a fall from grace, but batted away questions about what it means for Australia's future in the monarchy.
The man formerly known as Prince Andrew was taken into police custody on Thursday night (AEDT) and questioned on suspicion of misconduct in public office - an offence in the UK which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
He was then later released pending further investigation.
