How do you solve a problem like Prince Andrew?

That’s the question facing King Charles III as the long-running drama surrounding his 64-year-old brother roils Britain and the monarchy once again.

In the latest episode of this palace soap opera, a Chinese businessman has been barred from the U.K. because of concerns he cultivated links with Andrew in an alleged effort to influence British elites on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. The man, identified Monday as Yang Tengbo, said he wasn’t involved in espionage and had “done nothing wrong or unlawful.”

The allegations represent the most high-profile example to date of a threat intelligence officials have repeatedly warned about: China’s increasing efforts to secretly influence politicians and other members of the British establishment to support the country’s expansionist policies.

But the story also made news because it involves Andrew, once second-in-line to the British throne but now a constant source of tabloid fodder because of his money woes and links to questionable characters, including the late American financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Queen Elizabeth II tried to stanch the bleeding by stripping Andrew of his royal duties and charity roles, but the unflattering headlines kept coming. More recently, Charles has tried to persuade his brother to cut his expenses by leaving the sprawling royal estate he occupies west of London to no avail.

The king needs to take more aggressive action to keep Andrew out of the public eye, such as barring him from processions and other royal events, said Ed Owens, author of “After Elizabeth: Can the Monarchy Save Itself?’’

Andrew said in a statement that nothing sensitive was ever discussed and that he ceased contact with the businessman as soon as concerns were raised.

Jamie Foxx ‘too blessed to be stressed’ after injury

It appears that Jamie Foxx is not letting a recent incident at his birthday dinner get him down.

The Oscar-winning actor was injured at a dinner in Beverly Hills in honor of his birthday, according to his spokesperson.

“Jamie Foxx was at his birthday dinner when someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth,” a spokesperson for Foxx said. “He had to get stitches and is recovering. The police were called and the matter is now in law enforcement’s hands.”

The Beverly Hills Police Department confirmed that officers responded to “a reported possible assault with a deadly weapon at Mr. Chow restaurant,” but did not name Foxx.

Foxx on Sunday shared a post on social media that read, “The devil is busy…but I’m too blessed to be stressed.”
