In a recent episode of The Royalist Podcast, biographer Andrew Lownie revealed that former Prince Andrew (the Duke of York) was 'very, very helpful' to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. Lownie explained that Epstein used Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's royal connections to gain credibility and access to influential figures, potentially including other members of the royal family. Despite King Charles III stripping Andrew of his royal titles last year due to his ties with Epstein, Lownie believes the scandal surrounding Epstein and the royal family is far from resolved. He cited stories suggesting that other royals, such as Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, may have interacted with Epstein, indicating a broader involvement. Andrew was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct while in office, but he has denied any wrongdoing. Lownie expressed skepticism about Andrew facing justice, suggesting that the royal family would prefer to avoid public scrutiny of their connections with Epstein.
