Prince Andrew’s ex says Clinton, Epstein were ‘like brothers’

One of Prince Andrew’s well-connected ex-girlfriends has claimed that former President Bill Clinton and pedophile Jeffrey Epstein were so close, they were “like brothers.”

“Clinton was definitely very close to Jeffrey,” Lady Victoria Hervey, 45, said in the new ITV documentary, “Ghislaine, Prince Andrew and the Pedophile,” which aired in the UK Tuesday night.

The socialite said she got to see the powerful group up close as a longtime pal of Epstein’s madam Ghislaine Maxwell, who first introduced her to Andrew.

“I don’t know if you saw the paintings that were in Jeffrey Epstein’s house? One of them being a portrait of Bill Clinton wearing the dress that Monica Lewinsky wore when they had the affair,” noted Hervey.

“So yeah, he was super close to Jeffrey Epstein. They were like brothers, you know, and he was close to Ghislaine as well,” she said in the documentary.

Hervey, the daughter of the 6th Marquess of Bristol, was a high-profile “It Girl” at the time — and believes Maxwell and Epstein used her as “bait” while they hunted for young girls for the now-deceased pedophile.

She insisted it was the same reason the pair — and Clinton — were attracted to Andrew, who has since been banished from using the title “His Royal Highness” over the scandal.

“Prince Andrew was a son of the Queen of England. Americans love that. Jeffery loved that. Bill Clinton loved that,” she told the ITV special.

Others claimed that Andrew and Maxwell, the daughter of disgraced media baron Robert Maxwell, were so close, it was assumed they had once been a couple.

Hervey blamed being “really young and naive” for not realizing what Epstein and his since-convicted accomplice were up to at the time, even though she was friends with Maxwell for 20 years.

“I don’t think Jeffrey could have done any of it without Ghislaine,” she said.

“It was kind of like a Batman and Robin and they were a double act.”

Clinton’s spokesman later dismissed the allegations as “ridiculous.”

The rep previously insisted that the former president “knows nothing about the serious crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to.”

Clinton met him only a handful of times, and had “not spoken to Epstein in well over a decade” before the pedophile’s death in August 2019 while in custody on further serious sex charges, the rep has said.

Andrew, the middle son of Queen Elizabeth II, has also repeatedly denied knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, as well as having sex with an accuser suing him in Manhattan.

Maxwell was convicted in Manhattan last month but is seeking a mistrial over allegations that jurors during selection hid their own childhood abuse.
