Andrew was interviewed by Emily Maitlis Image: Mark Harrington/BBC/PA Andrew was interviewed by Emily Maitlis Image: Mark Harrington/BBC/PA BRITAIN’S PRINCE ANDREW has “categorically” denied having sex with an alleged teen victim of disgraced US financier Jeffrey Epstein, who claims she was forced to sleep with the royal, in an extraordinary interview broadcast on UK television.

Andrew claimed he was “at home with the children” on the March 2001 night Giuffre alleges they had sex, after earlier taking his daughter Princess Beatrice to a pizza restaurant near London.“Unbecoming!? He was a sex offender!!!” #PrinceAndrew 💥💥💥 pic.twitter.com/Ny7zoNIVq1At one point, Andrew said Epstein’s behaviour had been “unbecoming” to which Maitlis replied: “Unbecoming? He was a sex offender.

Andrew, 59 – eighth in line to the throne – has been heavily criticised over his links to multimillionaire Epstein, who was found dead in a New York jail in August. “I don’t believe it’s been damaging to the Queen at all, it has to me,” he said, noting “the wider family couldn’t have been more supportive”.

“I don’t believe that photograph was taken in the way that has been suggested,” he said, claiming he had never been in the upstairs area of Maxwell’s London flat where it was taken. He claimed it was “a convenient place to stay” and that he did so to end their friendship face-to-face. Andrew, who was captured on video during the 2010 stay waving goodbye to a woman leaving Epstein’s property, described the it as “like a railway station” with people coming and going.
