Overview
- Emails released by the U.S. Department of Justice detail plans for a September 2010 private dinner at Buckingham Palace with Jeffrey Epstein and young women, with follow‑up messages suggesting the meeting took place.
- The correspondence appears to contradict Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor’s 2019 claim that he cut ties with Epstein after a December 2010 trip, including a festive greeting and a shared “confidential” brief days later.
- Thames Valley Police confirmed they have opened a review into information linked to Andrew’s connections with Epstein following the latest document release.
- Andrew has left Royal Lodge and moved to accommodation on the Sandringham estate, a relocation reported to be privately funded by the King according to palace‑linked sources.
- In Norway, Crown Princess Mette‑Marit issued an apology over 2011–2014 messages with Epstein as charities reassess ties and the economic crimes agency examines whether former prime minister Thorbjørn Jagland received benefits from Epstein.
