Activists hang Andrew arrest photo at Louvre Museum to protest Epstein-related misconduct

Activists displayed a framed photo of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor at the Louvre to highlight allegations linked to Jeffrey Epstein; the image stayed up for 15 minutes before removal.

  • On February 22, 2026, activists from Everyone Hates Elon hung a framed Reuters photograph of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor inside the Musée du Louvre near the Mona Lisa, which staff removed after 15 minutes.
  • On February 19, 2026, Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested in Norfolk, UK, detained for nearly 11 hours while police searched properties in Norfolk and Berkshire, UK.
  • Posting a video on Instagram, the group showed activists mounting a framed Reuters photo of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor with a caption reading `He's Sweating Now 2026`, while museum visitors photographed the display.
  • UK police said Mountbatten-Windsor was released under investigation, and no charges were filed, allowing detectives to continue enquiries, the authority noted.
  • By placing the image in the Louvre, activists aimed to amplify calls for accountability as the U.S. Justice Department released emails appearing to show Mountbatten-Windsor sharing reports from official trade visits with Epstein, under investigation.
