Andrew went to intimate dinner with Epstein after his prison release, files suggest
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/30/andrew-intimate-dinner-with-jeffrey-epstein-after-prison-release-files-suggestFamous figures including Woody Allen were invited to party with disgraced financier and Mountbatten-Windsor, documents indicate
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor attended an intimate party with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein months after he was released from prison, files suggest.
. . .
Mountbatten-Windsor previously said the purpose of his trip was to sever ties with Epstein, who was jailed for child sexual abuse offences in July 2009. During the visit, Mountbatten-Windsor and Epstein were pictured walking together in Central Park.
The former prince said in his disastrous Newsnight interview in 2019 that he chose to meet Epstein in person to end the friendship as he felt breaking the news "over the telephone was the chicken's way of doing it".
However, newly released emails indicate that Siegal drew up a guest list for what she described as a "very interesting, fast, fun dinner" involving Mountbatten-Windsor and Epstein.
. . .
Epstein killed himself in prison in 2019 as he faced fresh child sexual abuse charges. Mountbatten-Windsor has withdrawn from royal life and been stripped of his titles over his links to Epstein.
