The British government will consider new legislation to remove Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor from the line of succession to the throne.

The decision will be made after the police investigation into his ties with Jeffrey Epstein is completed, reports "Reuters", quoted by NOVA.

A government representative said that any change in the line of succession to the throne requires consultations and reaching an agreement with the other countries, whose head of state is the British King Charles III, Andrew's brother.

On Thursday, Prince Andrew was detained for several hours by police as part of the investigation.
