Welp. There goes the British royal family’s 379-year streak of not having anyone in handcuffs. Former prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on the morning of his 66th birthday on suspicion of committing misconduct in public office during his time as trade envoy for the United Kingdom. My condolences for the uneaten cake.
