It marks Andrew’s first public sighting since the expanded investigation was announced.

UK police investigating former prince Andrew said Friday they are also open to probing a claim of sexual misconduct against the former Duke.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the second of the late Queen Elizabeth II´s three sons, was arrested in mid-February after new revelations stemming from his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Detectives at Thames Valley Police said Friday they had been in touch with the lawyer of a potential victim following reports a woman was brought to Windsor, west of London, where Andrew was a resident on the royal family´s estate, in 2010.

The force is reportedly concerned that the public believes they are only focused on accusations of misconduct in public office by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

They have been probing allegations that Andrew shared sensitive information with the disgraced financier Epstein during the former prince´s decade as UK trade envoy.

The force said their investigation was "examining a number of aspects of alleged misconduct following the release of files under the Epstein Files Transparency Act in the United States".
