Prince Harry refused to address his uncle Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest during a TV interview while visiting humanitarian organizations in Jordan.
“I understand you don’t wish to talk about your family, your uncle, things back in London you’re here because you don’t want to distract from the work you’re doing on the WHO and on Gaza,” a Channel 4 correspondent said to Harry, 41, in a video released on Friday, February 27, before segueing into the topic at hand.
“Firstly, why are you here in Jordan? Why is it so important to you?” the reporter asked.
Harry ignored the remark about Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, and said that he spoke with Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization, in the months leading up to the trip. He noted they were both passionate about highlighting “the incredible work that Jordan does for this region.”

“The work’s been going on for decades, but more so recently, it’s been a humanitarian hub for the Middle East, especially with everything that’s going on in Gaza, and also Syria, as well,” the Duke of Sussex continued.
Harry explained that violence in that region can be overshadowed. “It was a really important time for us to collaborate and come here and shine a light and focus on the very real humanitarian catastrophe that has happened and continues,” he went on, praising “the incredible work that Jordan does for this region.”

Harry’s trip came almost one week after the arrest of Andrew, 66, for allegedly engaging in illegal misconduct while serving in public office. (Andrew was released from police custody within hours of his arrest.)
The Thames Valley police department said authorities were investigating claims that Andrew shared confidential information with late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, per BBC.
King Charles III Breaks Silence on Brother Prince Andrew's Arrest
Andrew, the former Duke of York, was notably stripped of his remaining titles by King Charles III in October 2025 over his links to Epstein. The decision was made amidst renewed scrutiny, following a decision by the late Queen Elizabeth II in 2022 to remove his military affiliations and patronages, which resulted in Andrew no longer using “His Royal Highness” title.
He had previously been accused of sexual assault by Virginia Giuffre, who said they first met through an Epstein associate. Andrew denied the claims and later reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre for an undisclosed sum. (Giuffre died at 41 on April 25, 2025).
Attorney James J. Sexton told Us Weekly the evidence against Andrew is “damning.” If convicted, he faces life in prison.
“He’s certainly in a position where he’s been out of the graces of the royal family for a long time and for a myriad of reasons, but this is certainly the most damning pool of evidence that’s ever been provided against him,” Sexton told Us. “It’s certainly something that any attorney looks at and says, ‘I would not want to try to make a meal out of those ingredients,’ because it is not a favorable one for him, and it’s a good one for the prosecution.”
