Rachel Reeves has called on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to repay any misused public funds. The 66-year-old disgraced royal held the UK Trade Envoy role for a decade, during which he was responsible for promoting business interests overseas.

When quizzed on whether Andrew should pay back any misused funds, Ms Reeves told The i Paper: “Of course”.

Discussing her fellow Cabinet Minister Sir Chris Bryant’s comments branding Andrew as “rude, arrogant and entitled”, Ms Reeves was asked if she agreed.

She said: “Well, I’ve never met [Andrew] and I think that’s probably for the best.”

The late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s former housekeeper, Juan Alessi, previously testified that Andrew had “daily massages” at Epstein’s Florida home.

In a separate claim, a masseuse alleged that she gave Andrew a naked massage and added that this was paid for by the Royal Family.

Andrew’s arrest was due to fears over the chance of a “cover-up” of Andrew’s behaviour during his friendship with Epstein.

Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing and has not been charged following his arrest.
