The former British royal was once again included in newly released documents linked to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has urged Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to testify before the US Congress after the former royal was prominently featured in the latest batch of Epstein files released by the US Department of Justice.
The documents were made public under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which was signed into law by US President Donald Trump last November and requires the Justice Department to release federal records related to investigations into Jeffrey Epstein. Mountbatten-Windsor, who was involved last year, is present in emails and photographs included in the release on Friday.
When speaking to reporters on Saturday, Starmer was asked whether the former prince should apologize and provide testimony to US lawmakers if requested.
However, the most recent release contains photographs and email communications between the two from 2010, two years after the disgraced financier pleaded guilty in Florida.
The images show the former royal kneeling over an unknown woman lying on the floor, with no information given about when or where they were taken. The emails also show Epstein suggesting that Andrew have dinner with a “beautiful, trustworthy” 26-year-old Russian woman.
Last year, the king stripped his brother of royal titles and honors following renewed controversy involving Virginia Giuffre, who took her own life in April. In 2022, Andrew settled a civil lawsuit with Giuffre, who claimed he raped her three times in 2001 when she was 17 years old.
