Epstein Sent 20-Year-Old to Prince Andrew for Sexual Rendezvous, Claims Lawyer

Allegations against Prince Andrew continue to mount following new claims by a woman’s attorney, who told the BBC that Jeffrey Epstein arranged for her client—a 20-year-old at the time—to travel to the UK in 2010 for a sexual encounter with the prince at his former residence, Royal Lodge. According to Brad Edwards, the lawyer representing over 200 Epstein survivors worldwide, the woman was later offered a tour of Buckingham Palace and tea after spending a night with Andrew. Edwards emphasized this is at least one confirmed case of Epstein facilitating access to the prince. The former royal—now officially known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor—has not responded to the allegation. While Buckingham Palace maintains visitor logs, the BBC could not independently verify the woman’s visit without revealing her identity. Edwards also confirmed pre-encounter communication between his client and Andrew, noting prior contact with Andrew’s US legal team—though those channels reportedly ceased after King Charles III stripped Andrew of his titles and honorary military appointments in October last year.
