Royal Release Sparks More Questions Than Answers

He’s out. But the palace walls are still shaking. Thames Valley Police just dropped a new statement about the royal’s arrest and subsequent release, and it’s doing absolutely nothing to douse the flames.

The statement is a masterclass in saying nothing at all. “On…” it begins, before trailing off into a fog of procedural jargon. Released under investigation? That’s cop-speak for “this is far from over.”

So what are they still investigating? The silence from both the police and Buckingham Palace is deafening. This isn’t a resolution; it’s an intermission. The real drama is clearly being saved for the next act.

The eighth in line to the throne is free… for now. But with the law still circling, his future looks anything but certain.
