Police arrested a man on suspicion of public order and weapon offences after reports he behaved intimidately near Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's home, officials said.

  • Mountbatten-Windsor relocated to Marsh Farm earlier this year after leaving Royal Lodge, following withdrawal of his state-funded police protection in 2022 and King Charles III's 2024 decision to cease funding his private security provisions.
  • Witnesses reported the balaclava-clad suspect approached Mountbatten-Windsor from approximately 50 yards away, prompting the former royal and his private security team to flee the scene in a vehicle.
  • The suspect remains in custody at the King's Lynn Police Investigation Centre as officers took statements from Mountbatten-Windsor and his protection officer, with authorities continuing to investigate the confrontation.
  • Mountbatten-Windsor remains under investigation following his February 19, 2026, arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office related to his historical associations with financier Jeffrey Epstein.
