Reason for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's bruised face revealed
Andrew was spotted in a car with a purple mark across his face.
The reason for Andrew Mountbatten Windsor's bruise on his face has been revealed afterthe ex-prince was pictured in a car with the large mark on his face on Thursday.
According to reports, the large purple mark around his eye is believed to be the result of a "non-serious medical condition". The 66‑year‑old former Prince was seen on Thursday driving his Land Rover near Marsh Farm on the Sandringham Estate, accompanied by another man and a dog inside the vehicle, reports The Times.
Andrew has made very few public appearances since a security incident on the estate last month. At the time, the disgraced royal had been out walking the late Queen’s corgis near the Sandringham grounds when someone unexpectedly approached him, prompting the scare.
Mr Mountbatten‑Windsor was out walking his dogs when the alleged incident occurred shortly after 7.30pm on Wednesday, 6 May.
The King's younger brother is set to appear in court in July, as he is expected to give evidence at a trial against a man who is alleged to have threatened the former prince near his home on the Sandringham Estate.
Alex Jenkinson, 39, of no fixed address, is charged with two counts of using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour to harass someone or cause alarm or distress.
The former Duke of York is still the subject of a police investigation after being arrested at his Sandringham Estate residence in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
He was arrested on his 66th birthday on Feb 19 and released under investigation after spending more than 12 hours in police custody. He denies any wrongdoing.
