An internal inquiry by Pizza Express and subsequent journalistic research have failed to substantiate claims made by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor regarding his location on March 10, 2001.

Pizza Express 的內部調查以及隨後的新聞研究，均未能證實 Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor 關於其 2001 年 3 月 10 日所在地點的說法。

The inquiry was initiated by the senior management of Pizza Express, who cited public interest as the primary catalyst for verifying whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor had visited their Woking establishment. This verification was sought in response to a 2019 assertion by the former prince that he had accompanied his daughter to a party at said venue, thereby contradicting allegations by Virginia Giuffre. Ms. Giuffre, who deceased in April 2025, had alleged that she was coerced into sexual intercourse with Mountbatten-Windsor on that date in central London. The corporate investigation, which involved a review of historical records and attempts to contact former personnel, yielded an inconclusive result; the entity found no evidence to either confirm or refute the presence of the individual.

此次調查由 Pizza Express 的高層發起，他們將公眾利益列為核實 Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor 是否曾造訪其 Woking 分店的主要觸發因素。此項核實是為了回應這位前王子在 2019 年的聲稱，他表示當時陪同女兒前往該地點參加派對，從而反駁 Virginia Giuffre 的指控。Giuffre 女士於 2025 年 4 月逝世，她此前指控 Mountbatten-Windsor 在該日期於倫敦市中心強迫其發生性行為。公司調查包括審查歷史記錄及嘗試聯繫前員工，但結果並不明確；該實體未發現任何能證實或反駁該人士在場的證據。

Parallel efforts by BBC Newsnight to establish a factual record have similarly proven unproductive. No witnesses have been identified to corroborate the visit. Furthermore, a request for information submitted to the Metropolitan Police regarding the presence of protection officers at the Woking branch was met with a refusal. The police authority invoked national security protocols, stating that confirming such details would compromise the confidentiality of protection afforded to individuals other than the Sovereign and the Prime Minister. This refusal has prompted criticism from Sir Ed Davey, who questioned the legitimacy of the security justification given the historical nature of the request.

BBC Newsnight 建立事實記錄的平行努力同樣證明沒有成效。目前尚未發現能證實此次造訪的證人。此外，向倫敦警察廳提交關於 Woking 分店是否有保護人員在場的資訊請求遭到了拒絕。警方當局援引國家安全協議，聲稱確認此類細節將危及除君主與首相以外其他人士的保護機密性。此項拒絕引起了 Sir Ed Davey 的批評，他質疑鑑於該請求的歷史性質，安全理由的合法性。

These developments occur within a broader context of legal and institutional attrition for Mountbatten-Windsor. He was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office, an action appearing linked to his tenure as a trade envoy and his associations with Jeffrey Epstein, though he was subsequently released under investigation. His formal titles and royal patronages were revoked by the late Queen in 2022, and he has since vacated the Royal Lodge.

這些發展發生在 Mountbatten-Windsor 面臨法律與制度削弱的更廣泛背景下。他在二月因涉嫌濫用公職而被逮捕，此行動似乎與其擔任貿易特使的任期及其與 Jeffrey Epstein 的關聯有關，儘管他隨後在調查期間獲釋。他的正式頭銜與皇家贊助資格於 2022 年被已故女王撤銷，此後他已搬離 Royal Lodge。

Despite extensive corporate and journalistic inquiries, no empirical evidence exists to validate the alibi provided by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, while the Metropolitan Police maintain a policy of non-disclosure regarding his security detail.

儘管經過廣泛的公司與新聞調查，仍無經驗證據能證實 Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor 提供的不在場證明，而倫敦警察廳則維持不披露其安保細節的政策。
