Prince Andrew's Extended Stay at Epstein Mansion Revealed in Damning Emails
The full extent of Prince Andrew's 2010 visit to Jeffrey Epstein's New York mansion has been exposed through a cache of emails, revealing a nine-day stay filled with parties, meetings with young women, and financial transactions that starkly contradict his public statements.
Contradicting the BBC Interview
During his infamous 2019 BBC Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis, Prince Andrew claimed he visited Epstein's home for just four days with the "sole purpose" of ending their friendship. He stated he had gone there "honourably" to inform the convicted sex offender he could never see him again. However, the email evidence reveals a much longer and more involved stay of nine days from November 29 to December 7, 2010.
The Disturbing Timeline
The Daily Mail's analysis of the emails paints a disturbing picture of Andrew's extended visit. Upon arriving in New York on November 29, Epstein immediately arranged for Andrew to receive "a facial" at the exclusive Core Club. That same day, Epstein received emails about young women apparently of school age, with one message confirming "she would come after school" and another stating someone "will come after school."
On the same day, Epstein instructed his accountant to "bring 5k cash" – a detail that echoes evidence from Epstein's Florida home where he kept wads of cash to give $300 to each victim. While the emails don't identify the individuals involved, they create a troubling pattern.
Business and Social Engagements
Despite claiming to be there only to sever ties, Andrew engaged in numerous activities during his stay. As Britain's trade envoy at the time, he forwarded Whitehall reports from his recent trip to China, Vietnam, and Singapore to Epstein just five minutes after receiving them from his Buckingham Palace office.
The centerpiece of the visit was a dinner on December 2 celebrating Epstein's release from his 18-month prison sentence for soliciting sex with underage girls. The guest list included film director Woody Allen and his wife Soon-Yi, with invitations considered for Mick Jagger and Kate Winslet. Magazine editor Tina Brown reportedly declined, calling it a "Predator's Ball."
Young Women and Questionable Activities
Throughout the week, emails reference various young women visiting Epstein's 21,000-square-foot mansion. On November 30, messages mention "Jenya from Belarus who 'wants to come at 3'" and at 4:38 PM "Olga is here." Epstein also sent an email asking for "your bra and panty size" and arranged money transfers, including one instruction to "send another 500 euros to emily."
On December 4, Epstein and Andrew went shopping together at Barneys department store, after which Epstein asked "anyone new for tonight?" to an unknown recipient who replied they were "working on that" and offered two women. Someone else offered a "half Swiss half Russian" who was "hot and fun."
The Infamous Central Park Photo
The now-notorious photograph of Andrew and Epstein strolling in Central Park was taken on December 5 – day seven of the nine-day visit. Andrew had claimed this photo was taken "coincidentally" when he was just ending their friendship. That same day, Andrew received a foot massage from a Russian model as he and Epstein watched an advance copy of The King's Speech provided by party planner Peggy Siegal and Harvey Weinstein.
Extended Departure
Contrary to Andrew's statement to Newsnight that he left on December 6, emails reveal he stayed another night. Peggy Siegal sent a message that day stating "It's Andrew's last night. Want to come or help?" and another email to banker Jes Staley mentioned Naomi Campbell and her boyfriend were "coming for dinner at 9 if you want?" Another $5,000 in cash arrived from Epstein's accountant that day.
Andrew was finally photographed leaving on December 7, waving goodbye to Katherine Keating, daughter of a former Australian prime minister. Despite the parade of young women coming and going from the mansion during his stay, Andrew told Newsnight: "What they were doing and why they were there I had nothing to do with."
Aftermath and Continued Contact
Following his return to Britain, Andrew sent a Christmas card to Epstein stating: "It was great to spend time with my US family. Looking forward to joining you all again soon." This friendly tone contradicts his claim of having severed all contact after the visit.
The email cache provides substantial evidence that Prince Andrew's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was far more extensive and involved than he has publicly acknowledged, raising serious questions about his judgment and truthfulness regarding his association with the convicted sex offender.
