Prince Andrew stepped down from his public duties Wednesday in a swirling tornado of scandal, disgrace and utter contempt.

At the crux of Andrew’s implosion is his relationship with billionaire pervert Jeffrey Epstein who was awaiting trial on a slew of sex trafficking charges when he apparently killed himself in his New York jail cell last August.

One of Epstein’s former sex slaves has accused the 58-year-old Duke of York of having sex with her when she was just 17 years old.

Andrew has strenuously denied having sex with Virginia Roberts and has declared he can’t remember meeting her at a London nightclub.

The disastrous and widely condemned TV interview — reportedly orchestrated by his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson — last Saturday pulled the red rug out from under Andrew.

“I’ve no recollection of meeting her. In fact, I’m convinced I was never in Tramp [the London nightclub] with her,” he said in the BBC interview before adding he could not have had a sweaty dance because he doesn’t sweat.
