By the time a wide-eyed Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was slumped in the back of a Range Rover on his way to the police station last week, the reality had hit home. The man who was once a prince, watching his life crumble before his eyes.

Today, royal historian Andrew Lownie, who literally wrote the book on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, on what’s next for the former prince – and whether the King could be forced to abdicate the throne.
