A British activist group staged a provocative stunt inside the Louvre Museum of France, hanging a framed image of ex-Prince Andrew — born Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor — following his arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office.Andrew was arrested for 11 hours after the United States Department of Justice released additional files linked to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew was detained Thursday, intensifying scrutiny over his long-running association with Epstein.The image, captured by Reuters photographer Phil Noble, shows Andrew seated in the back of a car, appearing to shield his face from view shortly after the arrest. Noble later told Reuters he was struck by the moment he captured. “I couldn’t believe I’d got him as well as I did,” he said, adding that he asked a colleague to confirm it was indeed Andrew in the frame.According to a report by stuff.co.nz, the UK-based anti-billionaire collective “Everyone Hates Elon” said it secretly installed the photograph inside the Paris museum with a caption reading: “He’s Sweating Now.”The phrase references Andrew’s widely criticised 2019 interview on Nightline, in which he addressed allegations made by Virginia Giuffre. Giuffre had claimed Andrew was “profusely sweating” during an encounter at a London nightclub in 2001.In the interview, Andrew had responded: “There’s a slight problem with the sweating because I have a peculiar medical condition which is that I don’t sweat or I didn’t sweat at the time.”Sharing footage of the museum stunt online, the group wrote: “They say ‘hang it in the Louvre’. So we did.”
