A man aged 39 entered a plea of not guilty on Friday following accusations of making threats against Prince Andrew near his recently acquired residence within the royal family’s Sandringham estate.
The individual in question, Alex Jenkinson, also 39, has been charged with employing threatening, abusive, or derogatory language or actions directed at the former prince. Prince Andrew had his royal titles revoked last year by King Charles III, following controversies related to his association with Jeffrey Epstein.
Jenkinson is facing charges on two counts, alleged to have made threats towards Andrew on Wednesday and another individual on Tuesday.
In the upcoming trial scheduled for July 29 at Westminster Magistrates’ Court, the former Duke of York is expected to testify.

Andrew was allegedly yelled at by a masked man while walking his dogs near his home, the Daily Telegraph reported.
“Officers attended, and the man was arrested on suspicion of a public order offence and possession of an offensive weapon,” the police statement said.
The incident comes three months after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, as he is now known, was arrested, himself, on suspicion of misconduct in public office connected to his Epstein ties and his time as the U.K. trade envoy.

Virginia Giuffre, Andrew’s main accuser, claimed that she was forced to have sex with the royal three times starting when she was 17 years old.
Andrew has denied all of the accusations against him, but settled with Giuffre in 2022 over her civil sexual assault lawsuit. She later died of suicide in 2025.

Jenkinson appeared in court remotely from King’s Lynn Police Investigation Centre in Norfolk on Friday with his arm in a sling.
He did plead guilty to failing to provide specimen of blood while in custody.
Jenkinson was released on bail on the condition that he doesn’t enter the county of Norfolk, attempt any contact with Andrew, and he must stay 500 meters away from Sandringham, Buckingham Palace, Balmoral Castle, Windsor Castle and Highgrove.
