As new allegations about Prince Andrew's ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have recently emerged and incited a new round of backlash against him, the disgraced royal has receded from both only royal work, but from spending time in public in general.
According to The Mirror, Andrew has "holed himself up at his Royal Lodge home" since the newest revelations about his connections to Epstein began to be made public, including allegations detailed by his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, in her posthumous memoir, Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, which was released this week.
