A man arrested this week near the U.K. home of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor appeared in court Friday after being charged with two counts of using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behavior to harass, cause alarm or distress.
Alex Jenkinson, 39, pleaded not guilty to both counts of using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behavior to harass, cause alarm or distress. He pleaded guilty to a third charge, failing to provide a specimen of blood in custody, according to Norfolk Police.
Jenkinson was released on conditional bail and is not allowed to enter Norfolk, England, or be "in the vicinity of royally-owned premises in the U.K."
He is also prevented from contacting Mountbatten-Windsor, according to police.
Jenkinson was arrested Wednesday night after allegedly harassing Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, who now lives in a home on his brother King Charles III's privately owned Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.
Buckingham Palace has not commented on the incident.
Mountbatten-Windsor moved to Sandringham, over 100 miles outside of London, in February amid the ongoing fallout from his relationship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on Feb. 19, shortly after moving to Norfolk, on suspicion of misconduct in public office stemming from his time as a U.K. trade envoy, a role in which he was responsible for promoting British business interests abroad.
He was released under investigation on the evening of his arrest and was not charged.
The allegations against Mountbatten-Windsor come after his name appeared in the 3 million pages of documents related to Epstein released by the U.S. Department of Justice in January.
The former prince has repeatedly denied wrongdoing with respect to Epstein.
Epstein died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking minor girls.
