Activists hang UK ex-prince's arrest photo in the Louvre
"Activists managed to temporarily hang a new picture in Paris' Louvre - the arrest photo of UK royal family member Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The activists from the anti-billionaire collective Everybody Hates Elon arrived at the Paris museum with a copy of the arrest photo of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and stuck it on the wall in one of the galleries. They posted a video about the stunt on Sunday."
"The former Prince Andrew was arrested in the UK last week on suspicion of misconduct in a public office, after information emerged in the latest release of Epstein files. Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre testified that she was trafficked to then Prince Andrew in 2001, when she was a teenager. Andrew denies any wrongdoing and his recent arrest was linked to the alleged passing of confidential government documents to Epstein and his associates. Virginia Giuffre took her own life in 2025."
Activists from Everybody Hates Elon temporarily hung a copy of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest photo on a Louvre gallery wall and posted a video of the stunt. The arrest followed allegations in newly released Epstein files, including Virginia Giuffre's testimony that she was trafficked to then-Prince Andrew in 2001; Andrew denies wrongdoing. A Reuters photo taken after the arrest went viral; activists captioned the Louvre image 'He's sweating now' in reference to Andrew's 2019 interview claim he could not sweat. The Louvre removed the image quickly, and commentators noted the 'hang it in the Louvre' meme and venues for contemporary art.
