Royal Family Insiders: Epstein Sold Videos of Prince Andrew to Russia

British Royal Family insiders have claimed that Jeffrey Epstein sold “lots of videos” and other incriminating evidence he had on Prince Andrew to the Russian government.

The bombshell was revealed by historian and investigative author Andrew Lownie in his devastating new biography of the British prince.

The book is based on four years of forensic research and hundreds of interviews with insiders.

The new biography exposes Andrew’s hedonistic private life and astonishing sense of entitlement.

It reveals new details of his sordid relationship with pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Alarmingly, Royal insiders told Lownie that Russia has shocking video evidence of Prince Andrew after it was sold to Russian President Vladimir Putin by Epstein.

The book also details Andrew’s close relationship with Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, the British socialite daughter of the late media baron Robert Maxwell.

Andrew and Maxwell were good friends, and through her, the prince had come into the ambit of Epstein.

Epstein had stood by Ghislaine after the death of her father, a man with long-standing connections to British, Russian, and Israeli intelligence.

Robert Maxwell had met a sudden and mysterious death eight years earlier, and the subsequent discoveries of his crimes, in which he had stolen hundreds of millions of pounds from the pension funds of his companies.

According to bank records, from 1999 to 2007, Epstein gave her more than $30 million to restore her to the lavish lifestyle to which she had become accustomed.

In return, the well-connected Oxford graduate played a crucial role in Epstein’s complicated but lucrative business and personal life, introducing him to influential contacts.

She also organised a stream of young girls for the same men who would then be blackmailed, as well as satisfying his own demanding sex needs.

Epstein owned houses all over the world, including the largest townhouse in Manhattan, valued at $77 million, an 8,000-acre ranch in New Mexico, and a home in Palm Beach, Florida.

It was, however, to his 72-acre private island, Little St James, otherwise known as “Pedophile Island,” which has been at the center of much of the controversy.

Andrew frequently visited the island but his trips were never listed on any of his official schedules.

Witnesses have revealed that Andrew was a regular on the island.

An employee told Denise George, attorney general of the US Virgin Islands, of seeing him “on a balcony groping girls right out in the open – he remembered walking up to him saying, ‘Good morning your Highness.'”

In addition, Epstein’s personal driver, Ivan Novikov, remembered: “Whenever Andrew was in town, I’d be picking up young girls who were essentially prostitutes.

‘One time I drove him and two young girls aged around age 18 to a hotel.

“Both girls were doing lines of cocaine.

“Prince Andrew was making out with one of them.”

Epstein’s long-time housekeeper Debra Gale, who worked on the island and in Florida, called the duke a “mainstay” at the Palm Beach house:

“I once found sex toys on the floor of his room and women’s panties in the bed.”

She said Andrew also kept newly-wrapped women’s pantyhose, lingerie, and sandals of several sizes in his closet at Epstein’s home.

“It was weird seeing all that. It appeared he had all types of fetishes,” she added.

“I just didn’t expect that type of behaviour from a man who seemed to be like Prince Charming when you’d first meet him.”

She remembered Andrew taking a Swedish girl to his bedroom and them spending the entire night and most of the next day together.

When pressed, she added: “When the girls went I’d give them an envelope that Mr Epstein had left, with anywhere from $1,000 to $25,000 in it.”

Epstein had paid a former lap dancer to hire girls, often homeless, runaways, or younger sisters of other strippers, to attend his parties, which were always recorded on camera.

“Epstein made it clear he wanted to make Andrew happy,” said Gale.

“I was told to make sure he was looked after, that he had a drink, that he was OK.

“I saw Andrew at parties a couple of times a year, if not more.

“I would flirt with him and he would hit on me and was handsy.”

“He would stand in close proximity, looking at my breasts,” Gale added.

“He would hold my hands, put his arm around my waist, stroke my cheek.

“He used royalty, his celebrity, to his advantage.”

Virginia Roberts, later Giuffre, accused Andrew of raping her on three separate occasions when she was just 17 years old.

At 14, Giuffre ended up in the clutches of 65-year-old sex trafficker Ron Eppinger, with whom she lived for six months.

He later pleaded guilty to smuggling for prostitution, interstate travel for prostitution, and money laundering.

As Giuffre began the legal process, which would ultimately destroy the prince’s career and reputation, she swore an affidavit that she was raped by Andrew on Little Saint James and also in London and New York.

“The third time I had sex with him was in an orgy on Epstein’s private island,” she said.

Epstein, Andy, approximately eight other young girls, and I had sex together,” Giuffre added.

“The other girls all appeared to be under 18 and didn’t really speak English.

“We were told to start kissing and touching and to use sex toys on each other.

“Jeffrey and the prince were laughing… and then they undressed, and then I performed a sex act on them – Jeffrey first and then Andrew. It was disgusting.”

In July 2019, Epstein was arrested on charges of sex trafficking.

An offer of $100 million bail was refused, and he was sent to the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in Manhattan while awaiting trial.

The following month, he was found dead in his cell with a sheet tied around his neck and the top bunk.

While a lot of evidence likely died with Epstein, it appears the sex trafficker sold off incriminating evidence before his death.

Many more scandals may emerge, especially if the FBI files on Epstein are released.

One clue to what they might reveal lies in a newspaper report in September 2019 saying that “British intelligence chiefs were concerned that Russia may have obtained kompromat, compromising material, on Prince Andrew over the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.”

According to the paper, John Mark Dougan, a former deputy in the Palm Beach County sheriff’s office, had fled to Russia with copies of files on Andrew and was in touch with Pavel Borodin, a mentor of Vladimir Putin.

Asked what might be in the files, Dougan said: “Lots of videos but I wasn’t going to sit around and watch them.

“Also, lots of scanned documents.

“Law enforcement has had it for many years.

“They had it when Epstein was first arrested in 2006.

“The FBI had it when they seized my computers in 2016.

“I know they had these materials because they were the ones that alerted MI6 in 2019 that I had a duplicate and had a compromising video of Andrew.”

The issues spelled doom for the monarchy over concerns about the full extent of Andrew’s involvement with Epstein being exposed.

According to one former Buckingham Palace employee, the Royal Family would “be toast” if the truth got out.

“They’d never be able to bounce back from it,” they said.

“They’ve endured scandals over the years but this would bury them for good.

“If the unconditional truth is ever released, I think the British public would try to impeach the Royal Family.

“Because a lot of Andrew’s wrongdoings were done on the British taxpayers’ tab.”

The palace does what it can to contain the dangers presented by the late Queen’s errant second son and is alleged to sometimes put pressure on to keep matters under wraps.

Top US TV journalist Amy Robach expressed her frustration when ABC sat on her interview with Virginia Giuffre in 2015.

“Virginia told me everything,” Robach said.

“She had pictures, she had everything.

“She was in hiding for 12 years, and we convinced her to come out and to talk to us.

“It was unbelievable what we had. Clinton. We had everything,” she said.

“I tried for three years to get it on broadcast, to no avail.

“The Palace found out that we had her whole allegations about Andrew and threatened us a million different ways.”

As a result of the story being suppressed, it is alleged that Epstein and his associates were able to groom, traffic, and abuse young girls for another three years.

Robach said she believed Epstein’s prison death was not a suicide.

“So do I think he was killed? 100 per cent yes, I do,” she said.

“He made his whole living blackmailing people … yup, there were a lot of men in those planes.

‘A lot of men who visited that island, a lot of powerful men who came into that apartment.”
