Since Jeffrey Epstein, the New York financier and convicted sex offender, died by suicide in a Manhattan jail cell on August 10, scrutiny around who was involved in his alleged underage sex ring has shone a light on a few well-known names, most notably Prince Andrew. The second-born son to Queen Elizabeth II, the Duke of York is one of the highest profile alleged associates in the now worldwide scandal.
Here’s what we know so far about Prince Andrew’s connection to Epstein and what might be next for the prominent member of Britain’s royal family. A source reportedly close to the royal family is now trying to discredit that image of Prince Andrew with Giuffre by telling the Evening Standard that the photo might be a fake. Their contention is that they asked to see the original copy and it has not turned up. The source also points out that Andrew has “chubby fingers” IRL, and seemingly not in the photo in question.
On August 17, the Daily Mail posted a 2010 video of Prince Andrew poking his head out of Epstein’s New York City mansion, bringing renewed interest in those photos of the two men walking through Central Park, which happened within 24 hours of the recording of this new footage. Buckingham Palace released a statement later that day, saying that, “The Duke of York has been appalled by the recent reports of Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged crimes.
