King Charles’ Brother Andrew Seen on All Fours Over Unidentified Woman in New Epstein Files Photo

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor appears in a newly released set of records tied to the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein, including two images shared publicly by the U.S. Department of Justice on Friday, Jan. 30.

In one image, Andrew—formerly known publicly as Prince Andrew—is shown leaning over a fully clothed woman who is lying on the floor, with his hand near her midsection. A second image shows him on his hands and knees above the same woman. Her face is obscured in both photos, and the records do not provide additional details about when or where the images were taken.

The newly released materials also include email exchanges between Epstein and a contact listed as “The Duke,” widely believed to refer to Andrew. Epstein pleaded guilty in June 2008 to charges including solicitation of prostitution and solicitation of prostitution with a minor under 18. He served an 18-month sentence in a minimum-security facility and was released in 2009, later completing a period of house arrest that ended in August 2010.

According to the emails included in the release, Epstein later wrote to Andrew in late September 2010 about arranging a meeting and said he would “need private time.” He also wrote that he was in London with three women and asked whether he should bring them “to add some life.” The correspondence included a response attributed to Andrew offering Buckingham Palace as a meeting location, noting they would have “lots of privacy” there.

The documents add to longstanding scrutiny of Andrew’s relationship with Epstein. In 2010, photos of the two men walking together in Central Park drew renewed attention. A prior tranche of records released in December included an image of Andrew seated with Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell inside the saloon at Sandringham House, an estate closely associated with Elizabeth II. Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence following a 2021 trafficking conviction.

Andrew has repeatedly denied wrongdoing connected to Epstein.

He stepped back from public royal duties in 2019 following a widely watched BBC interview in which he addressed his relationship with Epstein. He has also been linked to allegations by Virginia Giuffre, who said she was trafficked and forced to have *** with Andrew when she was 17. Giuffre died by suicide in 2025.

In January 2022, Andrew lost his military affiliations and patronages after a judge declined to dismiss Giuffre’s civil lawsuit. He later reached an out-of-court settlement for an undisclosed amount.

After the release of Giuffre’s memoir Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice last year, scrutiny of Andrew intensified. The records and renewed coverage come as Charles III has continued to distance the monarchy from the controversy, with Andrew losing the use of royal titles and related honors.
