Prince Andrew book edited to remove Epstein claims about Melania Trump
HarperCollins removed claims about Melania Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein from 60,000 copies of a Prince Andrew biography to avoid costly legal disputes, publisher said.
- The book about the House of York authored by Andrew Lownie has been revised to exclude allegations that Jeffrey Epstein introduced Donald Trump to Melania Trump.
- These changes follow legal caution by publisher HarperCollins to reduce risk of costly lawsuits, and around 60,000 copies containing the original claims have been printed.
- An entire chapter in the book focuses on Prince Andrew's friendship with Epstein, describing Andrew as mixing official and private business during travels, which breached royal rules.
- President Trump denied Epstein introduced him to Melania, stating another person did, and a spokesperson said the true meeting account is in Melania Trump's best-selling book.
- Melania Trump has threatened legal action against Hunter Biden for $1 billion in response to his allegation that Epstein facilitated her introduction to Trump, but Hunter Biden has declined to apologise or withdraw the statement.
