C dans l'air du 26 février 2026 - Affaire Epstein : la parole est aux ClintonUne audition très attendue outre-Atlantique. Hillary et Bill Clinton, président des Etats-Unis de 1993 à 2001, vont être entendus aujourd'hui et demain par la commission d'enquête parlementaire américaine sur l'affaire Epstein. Le nom de l'ancien président démocrate est cité à plus de 2 000 reprises dans le dossier, même si ce dernier assure n'avoir jamais eu connaissance des agissements du pédocriminel, dont le scandale éclabousse bien au-delà des États-Unis. Les époux Clinton seront interrogés séparément et à huis clos, d'abord Hillary ce jeudi après-midi, puis son époux, vendredi. Les Clinton ont tout essayé pour se soustraire à cette audition, accusant le président républicain de la commission d'enquête de vouloir créer une diversion pour faire gagner du temps à Donald Trump, qui rechigne à faire toute la lumière sur ce scandale. Mais la publication par la Maison Blanche de nombreuses photos montrant Bill Clinton et l'homme d'affaires, ou sa compagne Ghislaine Maxwell, qui purge une peine de 20 ans de prison pour trafic sexuel, soulèvent de nombreuses questions sur la crédibilité de l'ancien président. Bien au-delà de Washington, le scandale Epstein résonne en Europe, et notamment au Royaume-Uni où il a déjà fait deux victimes. Huitième membre dans l'ordre de succession de la famille royale, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor a été déchu de ses titres royaux, depuis la révélation de sa proximité avec le pédocriminel américain. Le fils préféré d'Elizabeth II aurait partagé des documents confidentiels avec Jeffrey Epstein, lorsqu'il était envoyé spécial du gouvernement pour le commerce entre 2001 et 2011, ce qui a mené à l'ouverture d'une enquête par la police de Thames Valley. "Le roi a fait clairement savoir (…) sa profonde préoccupation par rapport aux allégations [récemment] révélées sur la conduite de M. Mountbatten-Windsor", a déclaré un porte-parole de Buckingham Palace le 9 février. Mais que savait-il vraiment ? Andrew a-t-il été protégé par la famille royale ? Les révélations en cascades concernant l'homme d'affaires américain touchent aussi Peter Mandelson, ambassadeur à Washington jusqu'en 2024. Cette ex-figure du parti travailliste a d'ailleurs été auditionnée en garde à vue mais laissée libre à l'issue de celle-ci, tandis que le scandale menace désormais d'éclabousser aussi le Premier ministre Keir Starmer. En France, c'est la famille Lang qui fait les frais de l'affaire Epstein. Dans une enquête publiée la semaine dernière dans Le Monde, Raphaëlle Bacqué et Ivanne Trippenbach racontent les liens qu'a tissés l'ancien ministre de la Culture et figure du parti socialiste avec Jeffrey Epstein. Au-delà de la correspondance et des dîners dans l'appartement familial des Lang, Caroline, leur fille aînée, avait fondé en 2016 avec Jeffrey Epstein une société offshore domiciliée aux îles Vierges américaines. Cette société fait désormais l'objet d'une enquête par le Parquet national financier (PNF) pour Blanchiment de fraude fiscale. Jack Lang, qui a démissionné de son poste de directeur de l'Institut du monde arabe, dit n'avoir "rien à cacher". L'audition des Clinton peut-elle faire basculer l'affaire Epstein ? Pourquoi le Premier ministre britannique est-il menacé par les révélations sur le prince Andrew et son ancien ambassadeur Peter Mandelson ? Et quelle relation la famille Lang a-t-elle entretenue avec l'homme d'affaires américain ?Experts :- Romuald SCIORA - Politologue, essayiste, spécialiste des relations internationales et de la politique américaine - Valérie CANTIÉ - Journaliste à l'agence de vérification - Radio France - Anne-Elisabeth MOUTET - Éditorialiste - The Daily Telegraph - Philip TURLE - Journaliste britannique, chroniqueur international - France 24

With the possibility of charges against Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, being removed from the line of succession could be the last of the former Prince's worries. But with the House of Windsor in freefall following the latest Epstein revelations, have King Charles and Buckingham Palace been transparent about what they knew, and when? Andrew's unauthorised biographer, Andrew Lownie, knows what its like to navigate the British Royal Family's web of power. He joins Geraldine Doogue and Latika Bourke to talk about the financial corruption at the centre of the Royal power, whether Albanese has jumped the gun on removal calls, and why he's still a monarchist.Guest: Andrew Lownie, historian and author of Entitled: The rise and fall of the House of YorkGet in touch:We'd love to hear from you!

Prince Andrew's downfall has accelerated sharply in the wake of fresh allegations tied to Jeffrey Epstein and the explosive release of Virginia Giuffre's memoir, Nobody's Girl. The book recounts new details about Andrew's alleged sexual encounters with Giuffre while she was being trafficked as a minor by Epstein. These revelations reignited public outrage and renewed scrutiny over Andrew's long-denied relationship with both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Buckingham Palace has reportedly been forced into damage control, with King Charles III supporting Andrew's decision to give up his “Duke of York” title and remaining royal honors. The palace has publicly stated that the new allegations must be fully investigated, signaling growing institutional distance from Andrew as pressure mounts for full transparency and accountability.Adding to his disgrace, newly surfaced claims allege that Andrew attempted to orchestrate an online smear campaign against Giuffre to salvage his reputation. According to The Guardian's coverage of the memoir, the prince and his aides tried to hire internet trolls to harass Giuffre online and even sought access to her private information, including her Social Security number. Reports indicate that the Metropolitan Police have opened an inquiry into whether Andrew misused his royal security detail or other public resources during this smear campaign. Parliamentarians are also reportedly pushing to strip him of any remaining titles and privileges, as his reputation continues to collapse under the weight of new evidence and public disgust over his conduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsources:Prince Andrew tried to hire 'internet trolls' to 'hassle' his sex accuser Virginia Giuffre, her posthumous memoir reveals | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Former Press Secretary to Queen Elizabeth II Dickie Arbiter LVO joins David & Will See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well, there is absolutely no question what the biggest story in the world was on Friday. Words used to describe the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, were 'historic', 'jaw dropping', and 'stunning'. It has been described as a huge moment in the history of the modern royal family. But there were other royal commentators who weren't surprised at all with how Andrew's 66th birthday unfolded. They'd been watching the pressure build and felt Friday's events were a long time coming. If you have read Andrew Lownie's biography of Andrew and his former wife Sarah Ferguson, called Entitled, you will be familiar with the controversies during his decade lone tenure as a tax payer funded civil servant. When I spoke to Lownie last year he felt there should be a parliamentary, and crime agency, enquiry into Andrew's role as the Special Trade Envoy, and that it could lead to criminal charges. It was announced overnight that a cross party business and trade committee will meet on Tuesday to discuss exactly this. In response to the unprecedented arrest of a royal family member, Buckingham Palace made it clear the royal family had not been given a heads up that Andrew was about to be arrested and investigated for suspicion of misconduct in public office. And yet, King Charles III quickly offered up an impressive and upfront statement, giving the impression Buckingham Palace were prepared for this day too. Respectable working members of the family are already under pressure when out in public to answer questions about Andrew. With an arrest, investigation, and potential charges and a trial, this crisis could be in the public eye for years. King Charles recognises this, and by putting duty ahead of his brother in his statement he continues the institution's distancing from Andrew and his many messes. In a crisis this big, the royal family's philosophy of 'never complain, never explain' simply isn't going to cut it and is coming to an end. It is important to note that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor denies any wrong-doing, and that his arrest is not related to accusations of sexual assault or misconduct. What I find sad about all this is how hard it is for the many women raped and sexually assaulted as girls, by Jeffrey Epstein and allegedly some of his mates, to seek justice. Lawyers, academics, and ambassadors have lost their jobs, but the focus and interest has shifted to the exposure and workings of a rich and powerful global network, rather that the real victims in this story. Never-the-less, the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is a timely reminder that in the UK - at least - no one is above the law. Before they look morally bankrupt, it's time the American Department of Justice acted likewise and got back to seeking justice for the real victims in this sordid episode.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) The US military is stationing a vast array of forces in the Middle East, including two aircraft carriers, fighter jets and refueling tankers, with President Trump saying that Iran had 10 to 15 days at most to strike a deal over its nuclear program. “We’re either going to get a deal, or it’s going to be unfortunate for them,” Trump told reporters Thursday aboard Air Force One. On a deadline, Trump said he thought 10 to 15 days was “pretty much” the “maximum” he would allow for negotiations to continue. The deployment is unlike anything the US has done since 2003, when it amassed forces before the invasion of Iraq. It dwarfs the military buildup that Trump ordered off the coast of Venezuela in the weeks before he ousted President Nicolas Maduro. While the US isn’t likely to deploy ground troops, the buildup suggests Trump is giving himself discretion to launch a sustained campaign lasting many days, in cooperation with Israel.2) President Trump declared victory in the fight over cost-of-living concerns, signaling a new approach that seeks to deny problems with his economic agenda while touting stock market gains to insist that his tariff plans have been a success. Pocketbook issues have emerged as the central focus of the upcoming November congressional elections with households hit hard by costs for groceries, utilities and housing. Polls show voters have soured on Trump’s economic policies, endangering Republicans’ hold on both chambers of Congress and the future of the president’s legislative agenda. Trump and allies have highlighted slowing inflation and job growth that has come in above expectations, but that has failed to assuage voters, and opened the door for Democrats who have seized on that discontent to boost their midterm prospects.3) Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the brother of the UK’s King Charles, was released under investigation on Thursday after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The Thames Valley Police confirmed it had released a Norfolk man in his sixties, without mentioning the former royal by name. Last week, the police force said it was leading the assessment of allegations tied to the US Department of Justice’s publication of files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. King Charles III issued a statement outlining his “deepest concern” about the matter and promising Buckingham Palace’s “full and wholehearted support and co-operation” with the investigating authorities. The arrest of Andrew, who turned 66 on Thursday, heaps further embarrassment on Britain’s royal family following years of lurid allegations about ties with Epstein that the former prince has consistently denied. His arrest appears to be the first of a UK royal since King Charles I in the 17th century following his defeat in the English Civil War.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, police took Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Prince Andrew, into custody on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

News broke that last night Prince Andrew has been arrested some blabbing about confidential information that was found in the Epstein files. Bronte Coy the news correspondent over at Buckingham Palace joins us to chat all about it... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In an extraordinary development, King Charleshas issued a formal statement following the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The King said he had learned of the news “with the deepest concern,” adding that the matter must now follow “the full, fair and proper process” and that the authorities have the Royal Family's “full and wholehearted support and co-operation.” He concluded: “The law must take its course.”Police confirmed that a man in his sixties from Norfolk was arrested, with searches carried out in Berkshire and Norfolk. Although officers declined to name the suspect, the Palace statement removed any doubt. Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright confirmed a formal investigation has been opened, stressing the need to protect the integrity of the process. The charge — misconduct in public office — is a serious common law offence carrying a maximum sentence of life imprisonment, though no charges have been filed and an arrest is not evidence of guilt.Buckingham Palace confirmed it was not informed in advance. Prince William and Catherine are understood to support the King's remarks. Prime Minister Keir Starmer reiterated that “nobody is above the law.” The King continued with a scheduled appearance at London Fashion Week, declining to answer questions from reporters as he maintained public duties.The arrest marks a dramatic escalation in a saga stretching back decades, from Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein to the fallout from his BBC Newsnight interview and his 2022 civil settlement with Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide in 2025. Her family welcomed the arrest, calling it proof that “no one is above the law.”As investigations expand across multiple police forces and political reaction intensifies on both sides of the Atlantic, commentators warn this moment may come to define the reign of King Charles. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor remains in custody. No charges have been filed. The investigation is active. And as the King stated, the law must now take its course.Palace Intrigue remains on a modified publishing schedule as this story develops.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Police confirm a man in his 60s was taken into custody as investigators search properties and widen their probe — sending shockwaves through Buckingham Palace and reigniting global attention on the long-running controversy. FOCUS STORY: Mixed signals out of Geneva as U.S.-Iran nuclear talks end without a clear breakthrough. Vice President JD Vance calls the discussions “mixed,” while President Trump's red lines remain firm. Meanwhile, U.S. military assets are shifting into the region.

Are America's law schools upholding the rule of law — or actively working against it?

L'ex principe Andrea Mountbatten-Windsor è stato arrestato il 19 febbraio 2026 dalla polizia britannica con l'accusa di aver condiviso informazioni riservate con il finanziere pedofilo Jeffrey Epstein nella sua ex veste di emissario commerciale del governo di Londra. Al momento Andrea non è incriminato né formalmente accusato, ma sotto indagine per il sospetto reato di “condotta illecita nell'esercizio di una funzione ufficiale”. Vittorio Sabadin, giornalista di lungo corso, già corrispondente da Londra per La Stampa e attualmente collaboratore ed editorialista de Il Messaggero, ci aiuta a decifrare il terremoto legale che ha colpito la Royal Family, analizzando i capi d'accusa, le reazioni di Buckingham Palace e le conseguenze possibili per il regno di Carlo III.

Hop, daar ging hij: Andrew, voormalig prins, vloog na een ferme zet van zijn oudere broer Koning Charles zo onder de bus. Charles is bereid om de politie te helpen als er een beroep op hem wordt gedaan in een politie-onderzoek naar de banden tussen zijn gevallen broertje en de beruchte zedendelinquent en bankier Jeffrey Epstein. Je kunt je afvragen in hoeverre Buckingham Palace echt bereid is om openheid van zaken te geven, desalniettemin geldt deze ontwikkeling onder kenners van de Britse monarchie als niets minder dan een monumentale kentering. Is het het begin van het einde van de Britse monarchie? Ook in deze aflevering Een sterrenkok in Wales heeft het aan de stok met de gezondheidsinspectie. Is hun methode achterhaald, of is zijn keuken gewoon smerig? Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee.

Today's Headlines: The fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files escalated after the Department of Justice released a letter signed by Deputy AG Todd Blanche outlining redactions and listing “politically exposed” names — mostly celebrities and public figures already publicly referenced. Attorney General Pam Bondi said no additional files will be released, despite reports that millions of pages remain sealed. Consequences are, at least, unfolding abroad. Thomas Pritzker stepped down from Hyatt Hotels Corporation. Buckingham Palace backed a police investigation into Prince Andrew, while French authorities assembled a team to examine related allegations. Investigations also involve former Norwegian PM Thorbjørn Jagland and port executive Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem. European leaders are weighing alternatives to Visa and Mastercard over economic security concerns, as the EU and Indo-Pacific partners — with Canadian PM Mark Carney — discuss forming a major trade bloc. At the Munich Security Conference, Secretary of State Marco Rubio sought to reassure allies amid doubts about U.S. commitment to NATO, reportedly skipping EU leadership meetings while meeting Hungary's Viktor Orbán and Slovakia's Robert Fico. A joint European report concluded Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was killed with a rare synthetic toxin; Russia rejected the findings. In domestic news, ICE is planning a $38 billion detention expansion, including a Georgia warehouse purchased from Moscow-linked PNK Group at a steep markup. A separate report detailed turbulence inside DHS under Secretary Kristi Noem, including private jet travel and the firing — then rehiring — of a Coast Guard pilot over a misplaced blanket. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the Pentagon will end graduate partnerships with Harvard University and review similar programs. A federal grand jury declined to indict Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin over a video about refusing illegal orders.

Tensions flared on Capitol Hill as Representative Ted Lieu confronted Attorney General Pam Bondi over newly released Jeffrey Epstein–related files that include photographs of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. During a House Judiciary Committee hearing, Lieu argued that redactions in the images confirmed the presence of a trafficking victim and questioned why Andrew has not been prosecuted.Bondi confirmed the victim's face had been redacted under congressional law but pushed back when Lieu accused the Department of Justice of shutting down further investigation. Lieu responded that previous attorneys general had also “dropped the ball,” but said Bondi now has the power to act.Meanwhile, a survivor of Epstein's abuse has urged Buckingham Palace to take stronger action. Juliette Bryant, speaking to the BBC, welcomed the King's statement that he is “ready to support” police but asked whether the Palace would actually follow through, calling for Andrew's records to be reviewed and made public if there is “nothing to hide.” Bryant has never met Andrew and has made no allegations against him. Andrew denies wrongdoing.As pressure mounts, King Charles is reportedly distancing himself financially. A source close to the King says he did not contribute to the roughly $15 million settlement Andrew paid in 2022 to resolve Virginia Giuffre's civil lawsuit. Reports suggest funds came from other family sources. Andrew has denied wrongdoing.Legal experts now warn that if Andrew were formally investigated in the United Kingdom, the process could take years. While life imprisonment is technically the maximum sentence for certain serious misconduct offenses, solicitors stress that charges are not automatic and that he remains presumed innocent unless proven guilty.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Only in royal life.King Charles reportedly enlisted armed protection officers using telescopic sights to help him spot salmon while fly fishing in Ireland. Security officers positioned in trees allegedly identified fish through rifle lenses and relayed directions via earpiece as the King cast his line. Despite the high-tech assist, experts insist Charles remains an accomplished traditional angler.Princess Anne, meanwhile, made her first ever personal appearance on social media, posting a direct-to-camera Instagram message congratulating Team GB's Winter Olympians.

Daily Mirror Royal Editor Russell Myers is joined by Jennifer Newton to unpack another sensitive week for the Royal Family. They discuss how both Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace released unprecedented statements, responding to the ongoing fallout over Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, and the alleged alleged passing of confidential information to the disgraced financier. Public anger was on show in Clitheroe, where the King was heckled during a visit to the Lancashire town. Russell and Jennifer discuss the reaction to the heckler, and how the Royals could handle potential future outbursts. Russell also shares the insights from Prince William's diplomatic trip to Saudi Arabia, and how the Princess of Wales has been using her platform to advocate for children's mental health.

British police, specifically Thames Valley Police, are currently assessing a complaint alleging that Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, may have shared confidential government and trade information with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The inquiry was triggered by newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents showing email exchanges from 2010, while Andrew was serving as a UK trade envoy, in which he appears to have forwarded official reports on trade missions — including sensitive commercial and investment data — to Epstein shortly after receiving them. These actions have prompted a complaint from anti-monarchy campaigners alleging misconduct in public office and potential breaches of Britain's Official Secrets Act. Thames Valley Police have confirmed they are “assessing the information in line with our established procedures” and have held discussions with the Crown Prosecution Service to decide whether the case should advance into a full criminal investigation. Meanwhile, Buckingham Palace has stated that King Charles III and the royal family will support and cooperate with any legitimate police inquiry into the matter, and senior royals including Prince William and Princess Catherine have expressed deep concern over the ongoing revelations.The scope of the police inquiry extends beyond the alleged transmission of confidential trade reports: reports suggest authorities are also examining broader aspects of Andrew's relationship with Epstein, including claims regarding how that relationship persisted after Epstein's 2008 conviction. The inquiry remains in its early phases, with no formal charges filed yet, but the involvement of prosecutors and senior investigators underscores its seriousness. Andrew, who was stripped of his royal titles and duties in 2025 amid longstanding criticism over his ties to Epstein, denies wrongdoing, and the police have not committed to a timeline for a decision on whether to launch a formal investigation. The developments have intensified public scrutiny of both the former royal's conduct and the wider implications of the Epstein files for British public figures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew probed by criminal prosecutors over Epstein scandal as police issue major update after latest file bombshell

This week, I speak with Gary Williams, a professional singer who's performed at Buckingham Palace and Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, where the late Martin Parr once photographed him. Over the last two years, Gary has built a thriving business photographing micro weddings at London's iconic town halls, the same venues where Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Lily Allen, and Ed Sheeran have tied the knot. We discuss reaching his photographic milestone of 100 weddings in just two years, the process of building a practice as a newcomer to professional photography, and what he's learned along the way. It's 100 not out. Then Valérie Jardin returns for her monthly Teach Me Street segment, where she offers creative feedback on candid street photos submitted by two photographers, examining the decisions made and the stories behind the images. From the mailbag, Sven in Switzerland is trying to lose the imposter syndrome character on his shoulder, Gene Westberg wonders if he missed a photographic trick during the pandemic, Jussi Jääskeläinen takes us on a hike in North Eastern France, Adriano Henney shares what he loves about Venice, and there's a moment of Spike Milligan silliness, or at least an ode to him, from the Doctor of Reflection, Robin Chun. Plus, news about some very special editions coming in the next four weeks. Read more about our photographic adventures on our photography travel website, The Journey Beyond.

In the most recent round of Epstein file disclosures and congressional activity, a **U.S. lawmaker has publicly asserted that a woman seen in still-released photos of Prince Andrew — shown beneath or in very close proximity to him in images sourced from Jeffrey Epstein's New York residence — was a verified sex-trafficking victim connected to Epstein's network. That claim was made during a House Judiciary Committee hearing where the images were discussed, with the woman's face redacted under federal victim-protection rules; the lawmaker argued these visuals, now tied to trafficking, should have prompted legal action against Andrew at the time. Although the Department of Justice has maintained there's not enough evidence to charge Andrew and he has denied wrongdoing, the sharp political pressure and suggestion that the woman was trafficked under the federal Victims Trafficking Protection Act mark a significant escalation in public scrutiny of his ties to Epstein.Separately, police in the U.K. are now assessing new allegations stemming from the newly released Epstein documents, which include communications indicating that Andrew and Epstein continued to correspond after his 2010 conviction and that Epstein may have supplied women — some later described as trafficking victims — to him at various residences. The files also contain email exchanges that appear to corroborate the authenticity of the infamous photo with Virginia Giuffre (contradicting earlier claims by Andrew and associates that it was fake), and raise questions about Andrew's behavior after his official role as U.K. trade envoy. Buckingham Palace has stated it will support law enforcement assessments, and members of the royal family, including Prince William and Kate, have publicly expressed concern over the ongoing revelations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Woman in ex-Prince Andrew photo was Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking victimBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

What happened when Prince William decided to speak out on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's connection to Jeffrey Epstein? And did the statement go far enough? Listen as Chris and Lizzie describe how it all unfolded, while they were in Saudi Arabia with Prince William. They talk us through how they found out that Kensington Palace, and Buckingham Palace, decided to end the royal wall of silence, addressing the allegations against the former-Prince Andrew. So what did Buckingham Palace's statement on Andrew say? How does Prince William really feel about his uncle, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor? And what are the police now looking into? A reminder, that ITV News have put the latest allegations to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor who did not respond, and when he was previously approached for a response he strenuously denied all wrongdoing.

The Epstein scandal is no longer confined to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson — Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are now being pulled into the blast radius.Newly released emails suggest Epstein's presence in the York family orbit was deeper than previously understood. Royal journalist Victoria Murphy calls the messages “really, really uncomfortable reading,” while author Andrew Lownie argues the sisters were not “five-year-old girls” and cannot be dismissed as bystanders.Behind the scenes, sources say Andrew and Ferguson are drifting apart, with Fergie reportedly telling friends she needs money and may distance herself from her ex-husband as she eyes a comeback — potentially even a memoir or television interview. Palace aides are said to be alarmed at the prospect.There is also speculation Andrew himself could consider a book, a move one commentator warns could be “the final nail in the coffin.” Newly released FBI transcripts include references to Andrew, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell mocking Ferguson privately, while resurfaced emails show Ferguson praising Epstein after his 2009 jail release.As questions mount about who pushed hardest to sideline Andrew — King Charles or Prince William — the monarchy braces for more turbulence. And amid it all, Buckingham Palace announces a state visit from Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a reminder that diplomacy must continue even as scandal dominates the headlines.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Prince Andrew became embroiled in controversy after revelations about a £750,000 “wedding gift” linked to him raised serious questions about propriety and transparency. The payment was reportedly routed through his bank, and when compliance officers flagged it as unusual, Andrew allegedly told them to “call Buckingham Palace” for confirmation. This response fueled suspicions that he used his royal status to silence scrutiny, deflect questions, and legitimize a transaction that might otherwise have faced deeper investigation.The origins of the money and the nature of the transaction only intensified the scrutiny surrounding Andrew, already under fire for his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Critics argued that the episode exposed how Andrew blurred personal financial dealings with royal privilege, undermining trust in the institution. Rather than a simple gift, the payment has been viewed as part of a pattern of questionable financial associations that left the Duke's judgment—and his reliance on the Palace as a shield—under heavy fire.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/prince-andrew-beatrice-wedding-gift-b2049478.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Queen Elizabeth's legacy is complicated — not one of villainy, but of restraint taken too far. She wasn't blind to the troubles surrounding her son or the company he kept. Decades on the throne, surrounded by intelligence briefings and advisors, make ignorance impossible. But her instincts, shaped by a lifetime of protecting the monarchy, led her to do what she'd always done: contain the damage, preserve the Crown, and keep the family's troubles behind palace walls. It wasn't malice — it was control. Yet that control, in moments like these, came at the cost of transparency and trust.She wasn't responsible for the crimes of others, but she bore responsibility for how the institution responded. Her silence  was a reflex born of a system that prizes dignity over honesty. And while that may have once seemed noble, the world changed, and silence began to look like complicity. In the end, she'll be remembered as both the monarch who held her nation together through eras of upheaval and the one who held too tightly when truth demanded release. Queen Elizabeth preserved the monarchy — but she also showed us the limits of what silence can protect.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew came under scrutiny after documents revealed he told bankers to call Buckingham Palace when they questioned a £750,000 payment tied to him. The transaction raised compliance concerns, prompting officials to seek clarity on whether it was legitimate. Instead of offering a straightforward explanation, Andrew reportedly directed them to his Palace office, effectively leaning on his royal status to quell the inquiry.The payment's origins and purpose stirred suspicions, especially given Andrew's already controversial financial dealings and public scandals. The move highlighted how he allegedly relied on the prestige of the monarchy to shield himself from financial accountability, deepening concerns about his judgment and raising questions over whether he abused his royal position for personal protection.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Newly released emails from Ghislaine Maxwell appear to confirm the authenticity of the infamous photograph showing Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor with his arm around Virginia Giuffre — a photo long disputed by both Maxwell and Andrew. In a 2015 draft statement sent to Jeffrey Epstein, Maxwell wrote that in 2001 she was in London when Giuffre met several of her friends, including Andrew, and that a picture was taken “as I imagine she wanted to show it to friends and family,” effectively acknowledging the image was real and that she had introduced them. Maxwell's email also stated Andrew visited her home, although she continued in the correspondence to claim she had no knowledge of “anything improper” occurring between Giuffre and Andrew.The release of these messages comes as part of a massive tranche of documents tied to Epstein that the U.S. Department of Justice disclosed recently. The emails contradict longstanding denials by both Maxwell and Andrew about the meeting and undercut Andrew's past arguments that the photo might have been doctored. Giuffre, who died by suicide in 2025, had maintained the photograph supported her allegations that she was trafficked and abused; her family has described the new emails as vindicating her claims. Andrew settled a civil lawsuit with Giuffre in 2022 without admitting liability and has repeatedly denied wrongdoing. Buckingham Palace declined to comment, and UK police have so far not launched a full criminal investigation based on these revelations.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:That photo of Andrew with his arm around Virginia Giuffre IS REAL and I introduced them, admits Ghislaine Maxwell in damning emails that blow Pizza Express alibi apart | Daily Mail Online

Prince Andrew has officially moved out of Royal Lodge after King Charles the Third ordered him to surrender the lease, with the exit reportedly rushed forward as fresh Epstein-linked revelations hit the front pages. Sources say Andrew traveled to Norfolk “under the cover of darkness,” while movers continue clearing the Windsor property in stages.The pressure is also rising on the legal front.

Recent revelations from Jeffrey Epstein's files have reignited scrutiny of Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor's relationship with the disgraced financier, including new details surrounding a Russian woman that Epstein allegedly offered to set him up with. Newly released emails show that Epstein described this woman — identified in some reports as a model — as “beautiful” and “trustworthy” and proposed introducing her to Andrew in 2010, shortly after Epstein's release from house arrest, a period when Andrew had publicly claimed to have ended his association with him. Correspondence also suggests that Andrew continued to maintain some level of contact with Epstein, even inviting him to Buckingham Palace for dinner and appearing open to arrangements that blurred personal, social, and potentially exploitative boundaries amid a broader climate of scandal.These revelations come on top of longstanding allegations from other women that they were trafficked by Epstein to meet or engage sexually with Andrew — most notably Virginia Giuffre, who claimed Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell forced her into sexual encounters with Andrew on multiple occasions in the early 2000s, beginning when she was a minor; that claim was settled out of court in 2022 without his admitting wrongdoing. Additionally, a new accuser has come forward, asserting she was sent to the UK for a sexual encounter with him at his former residence, Royal Lodge, further deepening public concern and criticism of his prolonged ties to Epstein's network. These developments have compounded the reputational damage to Andrew, contributing to his loss of royal titles and ongoing calls for transparency and accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:'Beautiful' young Russian who Epstein set up for date with Andrew revealed as model who said UK trip was an 'adventure'

If a man breaks up with a 30-something woman who wants a child, is he guilty of more than changing his mind? Inspired by a viral column from the weekend, we explain the phenomena of the ‘fertility vampire’. Also, you might have seen the disturbing photos of the man once known as Prince Andrew kneeling over a woman. They are just a few of the thousands and thousands of images released in this weekend’s drop from the Epstein Files. So what are they, what else is in there, and what might happen next?
