Piers Morgan described the arrest of former Prince Andrew as a bombshell moment that could upend the British political system and become the most serious threat to the monarchy in modern history. Morgan told “FOX & Friends” that the arrest could become a tipping point for the British monarchy and spark broader political fallout in the United Kingdom. “To put it in context, there has been no member of the Royal Family arrested in my lifetime – I’m 60 years old. You have to go back centuries to the last time a member of the British Royal Family was arrested,” he said. “I think it’s important to clarify here: the arrest is not in connection with anything to do with the sex scandal involving Epstein. This is specifically about his behavior when he was a trade envoy – a government appointment.” “He was acting on behalf of the country for about a decade, traveling around the world as business envoy. During that period, we now know from leaks from the Epstein files that he was giving Epstein – remember, a convicted pedophile – information he was getting as a trade envoy.” “This is treasonous behavior by a man who was the brother of the King of his country. These are very serious allegations.”
