A newly released email exchange between Sarah Ferguson and Jeffrey Epstein appears to show the former Duchess of York congratulating the convicted *** offender for having a “baby boy.”
In a new batch of documents made public by the U.S. Department of Justice, Ferguson, 66, wrote in 2011 that she had just learned the disgraced financier had a son.
Although the sender’s contact information has been redacted, one of the messages is signed “Sarah” and refers to “The Duke,” while another message mentions “Andrew.”
Ferguson and Prince Andrew were married from 1986 until 1996 and share two daughters, Princess Beatrice, 37, and Princess Eugenie, 35.
“Don’t know if you are still on this bbm [BlackBerry Messenger] but heard from The Duke that you have had a baby boy,” the first email read, per the BBC. It is dated Sept. 21, 2011.
“Even though you never kept in touch, I still am here with love, friendship and congratualtions [sic] on your baby boy. Sarah xx,” it added.

Just eight minutes later, the redacted sender followed up with a second email.
“You have disappeared,” the email allegedly read. “I did not even know you were having a baby. It was sooooo crystal clear to me that you were only friends with me to get to Andrew. And that really hurt me deeeply. More than you will know.”
A representative for Ferguson had no comment when contacted about the emails.
Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, told Business Insider that Epstein did not have any children, adding, “If Jeff had a kid, I think I would have known.”
The “baby boy” messages are not the only correspondence included in the newly released material.
In one email dated Jan. 30, 2010, Ferguson wrote, “You are a legend. I really don’t have the words to describe, my love, gratitude for your generosity and kindness.”
She continued, “Xx I am at your service . Just marry me.”

Another email from that year showed Epstein asking her about a possible upcoming trip to New York. Ferguson replied, “Not sure yet. Just waiting for Eugenie to come back from a shagging weekend!!” Eugenie was 19 at the time.
The emails were sent after Epstein’s 2008 conviction on charges of procuring a child for prostitution and soliciting a prostitute.
Epstein was arrested in July 2019 on accusations that he ***** abused girls as young as 14 and died by suicide one month later while awaiting trial on federal conspiracy and *** trafficking charges.
Epstein’s survivors have recently released a joint statement calling the disclosure incomplete, saying their names and details were made public while alleged abusers were able to remain redacted. They are calling for the full release of Epstein-related files and accountability for those involved.
Andrew was stripped of his royal titles last fall amid renewed scrutiny over his relationship with Epstein. Ferguson also lost multiple patronage roles after reports said she emailed Epstein apologizing for publicly disowning him in a March 2011 interview with the Evening Standard.
