Britain's deputy ambassador to the US, James Roscoe , has suddenly resigned after being questioned about the leak of top-secret discussions . No explanation was given, but it is believed the leak involved a meeting of the National Security Council in March.
The collapse of Lord Peter Mandelson's tenure as ambassador over his connections to financier Jeffrey Epstein led to Roscoe's promotion. The deputy ambassador, 49, played a significant role in the official welcome of President Trump and King Charles III during their state and personal visits to the UK. He was also in charge of communications for Queen Elizabeth II and had diplomatic experience in various countries. Roscoe currently resides in Washington with his wife, journalist Clemency Burton-Hill
