Andrew emailed Epstein about ‘beautiful Russian’ and invited him to Buckingham Palace, new files suggest

Emails in over 3 million DOJ documents reveal Prince Andrew invited Epstein to Buckingham Palace in 2010, contradicting his claims of severed ties since 2006.

  • On Friday, the US Department of Justice published more than three million Epstein documents including a March 31 2002 Maxwell email to The Invisible Man and showing Andrew inviting Jeffrey Epstein to Buckingham Palace with promises of `lots of privacy`.
  • Historical disclosures — from Epstein's 2019 death to Maxwell's 2022 sentencing — underpin scrutiny that led Prince Andrew to step down in 2019 and lose his royal titles.
  • In the exchanges, Epstein describes a 26-year-old Russian woman as `beautiful, trustworthy` and says she has Andrew's email, with Maxwell calling him `sweet pea` after the Queen Mother died.
  • The Department of Justice noted that being mentioned in the files does not indicate wrongdoing, and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has repeatedly denied all allegations, stating he `vigorously` rejects them on 17 October 2025.
  • Records show Andrew continued visiting Epstein after his 2008 conviction and was photographed at Epstein's East Side townhouse in December 2010, drawing criticism.
