Prince Andrew's enthusiasm for massages bore an unmistakable resemblance to the routine Jeffrey Epstein built around himself. Juan Alessi, the manager of Epstein's Palm Beach mansion, testified under oath that Andrew sometimes remained at the property for weeks and received massages on a daily basis. That detail matters because massages were not incidental within Epstein's household; they were the central ritual through which he gained private access to girls and young women and around which much of his abuse operation was organized. Andrew's repeated participation in that culture makes it difficult to portray him as a distant acquaintance who merely attended an occasional dinner. He was reportedly enjoying the same personalized service, inside the same residences, provided through the same tightly controlled network of women and staff that served Epstein. Andrew has denied wrongdoing connected to Epstein, but the documented pattern shows how comfortably he accepted the privileges of Epstein's world.Ghislaine Maxwell appears to have played a direct role in supplying Andrew with that service on more than one occasion, functioning as the social facilitator who could locate a masseuse, make the introduction and arrange private access to the prince. Masseuse Monique Giannelloni said Maxwell recommended her to Andrew and arranged a June 2000 appointment inside Buckingham Palace, where Andrew allegedly emerged from the bathroom completely naked before the massage; Giannelloni said the encounter embarrassed her, although she did not accuse him of making an overt sexual advance. Reporting has also described other massage appointments connected to Maxwell's circle, reinforcing the picture of Maxwell providing Andrew with the same kind of carefully arranged female companionship she helped organize around Epstein. The significance is not that every massage was necessarily criminal, but that Andrew repeatedly benefited from a system in which Maxwell acted as gatekeeper and provider, selecting women and placing them in intimate, private settings with powerful men. That similarity is difficult to dismiss: Epstein demanded a constant supply of masseuses, Maxwell helped furnish them, and Andrew appears to have developed a comparable expectation that such women would be made available whenever he desired.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

After Louis Battenberg's (later Louis Mountbatten) successful campaign to marry Princess Victoria of Hesse and by Rhine, the couple set about having babies. The first of these, Princess Alice, was born in 1885, and came into the world congenitally deaf. Given the era, no particular accommodations were made for her, and while her condition caused many to underestimate her, she compensated by learning to lip-read (in several languages) and spoke English, German, French, and, later, Greek. Her marriage to Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark was happy only for a while, but the pair had five children. Alice occupied herself with charity work, and when hostilities broke out between Greece and Turkey, she served as a nurse at the front line, earning the deep affection of the Greek people. During the First World War, Greece exiled the royal family, and setting up in Paris, Alice and Andrew became estranged. He would ride out the rest of his life in the south of France with his mistress, while Alice's life became strange and complicated. She fell in unrequited love, though history has not retained the identity of her affection, and developed a religious fervor. She was hospitalized in sanitariums and treated with cutting edge techniques for schizophrenia, like hitting her abdomen with X-rays to destroy her ovaries. During her convalescence, which she wanted out of, her daughters married without her knowing and her youngest son, Prince Philip, gradually grew from a child to a man, with no real connection to his mother or father. Alice spent World War II in Athens, caring for the poor and hungry, and sheltering a Jewish family. When the Nazi occupiers came to search her home, she leaned into her deafness, pretending not to understand what they wanted until they were so bamboozled they left empty handed. She founded a religious order, but when Greece again abolished the monarchy, her son Philip, now married to Queen Elizabeth II, ensured her safe passage to Great Britain, where she lived out her days simply and humbly, as a quiet resident of Buckingham Palace.

In December 2010, Prince Andrew was photographed taking a casual stroll through New York's Central Park alongside Jeffrey Epstein—just days after Epstein had completed a 13-month jail sentence for soliciting sex from a minor. The image, captured by a paparazzo and later published globally, showed the Duke of York walking shoulder-to-shoulder with a convicted sex offender, deep in conversation. The timing of the meeting and the relaxed nature of their interaction sent shockwaves through Buckingham Palace and ignited a public firestorm, as it contradicted any attempt to downplay the depth of Andrew's relationship with Epstein. Far from a mere social encounter, this post-prison rendezvous strongly implied that Andrew maintained ties with Epstein even after his crimes were widely known.The photograph became a defining symbol of the scandal surrounding Prince Andrew, undercutting any narrative that he had distanced himself from Epstein after the latter's conviction. The optics were damning: a senior member of the British royal family publicly associating with a man now globally recognized as a serial predator. What made it even more damaging was that the meeting wasn't a brief, unavoidable encounter—it reportedly took place over several days, during a stay at Epstein's $77 million Manhattan townhouse. That visit, combined with the Central Park stroll, cemented suspicions that Andrew either underestimated the gravity of Epstein's crimes or simply didn't care, both of which would later contribute to his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview and eventual withdrawal from royal duties.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/royals/jeffrey-epstein-wanted-park-pic-28051494Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Sarah Kellen, Jeffrey Epstein's former personal assistant, told the House Oversight Committee that she was brought into Prince Andrew's orbit, including private dinners in Andrew's Buckingham Palace apartment and Princess Beatrice's 18th birthday party at Windsor Castle. Kellen identified Andrew and Sarah Ferguson as notable figures within Epstein's network, saying Andrew had been at Epstein's New York home and that she had also been present at royal residences connected to him. Andrew has denied wrongdoing, but the testimony adds another layer to the long-running scrutiny over how deeply Epstein and his associates were able to move through elite royal spaces.Kellen's testimony is also significant because she occupies one of the most complicated positions in the Epstein story: she was named as a potential co-conspirator in Epstein's 2008 plea deal, yet she has told authorities she was also groomed, controlled, and repeatedly raped by Epstein. She described Epstein as a manipulative and dangerous figure who used his access to powerful people around the world as a tool of intimidation, and she said the abuse continued even after he was jailed, including an alleged Skype call from prison in which he ordered her to undress on camera. Her account places Andrew's palace access inside a broader pattern of Epstein using proximity to royalty, politicians, financiers, academics, and foreign leaders to project power and keep those around him trapped.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein's PA dined with Andrew in his Buckingham Palace roomsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Die Tore des Buckingham Palace sind verschlossen. Die Wachen stehen vor den Mauern. Doch auch sie können nicht verhindern, dass immer wieder neue Geschichten aus dem Inneren der Monarchie an die Öffentlichkeit dringen. Jahrzehnte nach den ersten Vorwürfen werfen ehemalige Sicherheitsbeamte und neue Aussagen erneut die Frage auf: Was wusste Queen Elizabeth II. wirklich über das Privatleben ihres Sohnes Andrew? In dieser Folge BRITPOD – England at its best spricht Alexander-Klaus Stecher gemeinsam mit Königshausexperte Andy Englert über die Rolle der Queen im Fall Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. Während Andrew seine Titel und öffentlichen Aufgaben längst verloren hat, rückt zunehmend die Frage in den Mittelpunkt, was im Buckingham Palace bekannt war und wer über Jahre hinweg wegsah. Ehemalige Sicherheitsbeamte berichten von einem ständigen Kommen und Gehen von Frauen im Palast. Gleichzeitig geht es um Andrews Verbindungen zu Jeffrey Epstein, die millionenschwere Einigung im Fall Virginia Giuffre und die Bemühungen der Queen, weiteren Schaden vom Königshaus abzuwenden. Auch die Rolle von Prinz Philip sowie mögliche Ermittlungen und neue Vorwürfe werden eingeordnet. Darüber hinaus richtet sich der Blick auf die Folgen für das Haus York. Die Prinzessinnen Beatrice und Eugenie stehen bis heute im Schatten der Affäre, obwohl gegen sie selbst keinerlei Vorwürfe bestehen. Die Geschichte zeigt, wie eng familiäre Loyalität, öffentlicher Druck und der Ruf der Monarchie miteinander verbunden sind. Wusste Queen Elizabeth II. mehr, als jemals öffentlich bekannt wurde? Wer schützte Andrew über Jahre hinweg? Und wie sehr belastet die Affäre das Ansehen der Royal Family bis heute? BRITPOD – England at its best.

The Prince Andrew interview on BBC Newsnight came about after Buckingham Palace sought to clear his name amid growing scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. The idea was first pitched when Prince Andrew's then-private secretary, Amanda Thirsk, was in discussions with BBC journalist Emily Maitlis and Newsnight editor Esme Wren about a possible interview. Initially, the palace wanted to use the interview to refute allegations that Prince Andrew had sexually abused Virginia Giuffre, who alleged she was trafficked to him by Epstein when she was 17. Thirsk and Andrew saw it as an opportunity to publicly address the controversy, believing it would help him regain credibility. The interview was arranged through direct negotiations between Thirsk and the Newsnight team, with Prince Andrew ultimately agreeing to the sit-down, which was filmed inside Buckingham Palace in November 2019.However, the interview turned into a public relations disaster for Prince Andrew. Instead of clearing his name, his lack of remorse, bizarre explanations, and contradictions only fueled greater criticism. He infamously claimed he could not have been with Giuffre on the alleged night because he was at Pizza Express in Woking and insisted he could not sweat due to a medical condition. The broadcast led to intense backlash, forcing Andrew to step back from royal duties days later. BBC journalist Sam McAlister, who negotiated the interview, later revealed that Andrew and his team failed to anticipate how damning his answers would sound, leading to what is now regarded as one of the most disastrous royal interviews in history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Charlotte Manley, a longtime aide to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (formerly Prince Andrew), has said she is willing to speak with police about her time working for him between 1996 and 2003 as investigators revisit issues connected to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Manley served in several senior administrative roles, including assistant private secretary, private secretary, and treasurer, and often accompanied Andrew during his tenure as the United Kingdom's special trade envoy. During that time she handled travel arrangements, finances, and other official matters on his behalf. One detail drawing renewed attention is a £75 cheque she signed in 2000 from a Buckingham Palace account to pay a South African masseuse whose visit to Andrew was reportedly arranged by Ghislaine Maxwell. The woman who provided the massage later said the encounter at Buckingham Palace was awkward but not inappropriate, though the episode has become part of the broader scrutiny surrounding Andrew's associations with Epstein. Manley has indicated that if authorities want information about that period, she would rather provide it directly to police than discuss it publicly.The renewed attention to Manley's role comes amid a broader investigation into Andrew's conduct and his long-standing ties to Epstein, which have drawn increased scrutiny following newly released investigative materials and recent legal developments. Andrew was arrested earlier in 2026 on suspicion of misconduct in public office related to his activities while serving as trade envoy, though he denies wrongdoing and remains under investigation. Authorities are also examining financial arrangements and other aspects of his official activities during the period when Epstein was part of his social circle. Investigators are revisiting records, payments, and travel details connected to Andrew's past engagements, and former staff members such as Manley may provide insight into how those activities were managed administratively. Her willingness to cooperate with police therefore represents another step in the ongoing effort by investigators to reconstruct the scope of Andrew's dealings during the years when his relationship with Epstein was most active.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew's former PA will speak to police about her time serving royalBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is reportedly facing another layer of police scrutiny, this time over an alleged incident involving a woman at Royal Ascot in 2002. Thames Valley Police are said to be examining that episode as part of a broader look at possible misconduct involving Andrew, including potential sexual misconduct, corruption, and fraud. The alleged incident took place during the high-profile racing festival, where senior royals were present, including Queen Elizabeth II, then-Prince Charles, Prince Edward, and Princess Beatrice. Details remain limited, but one royal commentator cited in the coverage said the woman involved was allegedly a waitress at the event, while Buckingham Palace has maintained that it no longer speaks for Andrew because he is no longer a working royal.The Royal Ascot claim comes as Andrew is already under wider investigative pressure connected to allegations tied to Jeffrey Epstein and alleged sex crimes at royal properties. Thames Valley Police previously said a man in his sixties from Norfolk had been arrested on February 19, 2026, on suspicion of misconduct in public office, interviewed under caution, and released under investigation while searches were carried out at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk. Police also said they were working with the U.S. Department of Justice and the Crown Prosecution Service as part of what they described as a serious, complex, and sensitive investigation. The broader picture is that Andrew's Epstein-related disgrace is no longer just a reputational collapse or royal family embarrassment; it is now being framed through active police inquiries, potential witnesses, and questions about whether misconduct extended into royal spaces that were once shielded by status, protocol, and institutional silence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former Prince Andrew reportedly faces new probe over 2002 Royal Ascot incident | Fox News

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.

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 bombshellBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is reportedly facing another layer of police scrutiny, this time over an alleged incident involving a woman at Royal Ascot in 2002. Thames Valley Police are said to be examining that episode as part of a broader look at possible misconduct involving Andrew, including potential sexual misconduct, corruption, and fraud. The alleged incident took place during the high-profile racing festival, where senior royals were present, including Queen Elizabeth II, then-Prince Charles, Prince Edward, and Princess Beatrice. Details remain limited, but one royal commentator cited in the coverage said the woman involved was allegedly a waitress at the event, while Buckingham Palace has maintained that it no longer speaks for Andrew because he is no longer a working royal.The Royal Ascot claim comes as Andrew is already under wider investigative pressure connected to allegations tied to Jeffrey Epstein and alleged sex crimes at royal properties. Thames Valley Police previously said a man in his sixties from Norfolk had been arrested on February 19, 2026, on suspicion of misconduct in public office, interviewed under caution, and released under investigation while searches were carried out at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk. Police also said they were working with the U.S. Department of Justice and the Crown Prosecution Service as part of what they described as a serious, complex, and sensitive investigation. The broader picture is that Andrew's Epstein-related disgrace is no longer just a reputational collapse or royal family embarrassment; it is now being framed through active police inquiries, potential witnesses, and questions about whether misconduct extended into royal spaces that were once shielded by status, protocol, and institutional silence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former Prince Andrew reportedly faces new probe over 2002 Royal Ascot incident | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this special bonus episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, Jonathan Thomas launches an experimental new monthly format: a London events guide covering what's actually on in the city this month. June is arguably London's finest month — 16 to 17 hours of daylight, the longest evenings of the year, and an events calendar absolutely bursting at the seams. Jonathan walks through everything worth knowing about June in London: the major royal events including Trooping the Colour and Royal Ascot, the blockbuster summer exhibitions at Tate Modern, Tate Britain, the Royal Academy, the National Portrait Gallery, the V&A, and more, plus what's on in London theater from Shakespeare's Globe to the West End, live music at Wembley and the Roundhouse, and practical tips for surviving — and thriving in — a London heat wave. If this episode proves popular, Jonathan will make it a monthly fixture. Let him know what you think in the comments.

Trooping the Colour — the monarch's official birthday parade — is the major royal event of the year in 2026. Even without a ballot ticket to Horse Guards Parade, you can experience the procession on the Mall and the balcony appearance at Buckingham Palace by arriving very early and staking out a good spot. Every major summer blockbuster exhibition in London requires advance booking — some, like The Queen's Fashion at The King's Gallery, are already sold out through 2026. Book tickets as soon as you finish listening, even if your trip dates aren't confirmed yet. The Frida Kahlo survey at Tate Modern, the James McNeill Whistler retrospective at Tate Britain, and the Marilyn Monroe exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery are Jonathan's top three must-book exhibition picks for the month. The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition — the world's largest open submission art show, running since 1769 — is a uniquely chaotic, democratic, and wonderful experience where everything on the walls is for sale and any artist can enter. Shakespeare's Globe is staging Much Ado About Nothing from June 11, and Regent's Park Open Air Theatre opens A Midsummer Night's Dream on June 20 — watching Shakespeare outdoors on a long June evening is one of the quintessential London summer experiences. London generally does not have air conditioning in older buildings, hotel rooms, or most tube lines. The first thing you should do after arriving in summer is buy a fan — Jonathan recommends going straight to Argos, Britain's version of a catalog store, for an affordable one. The tube's older lines (Central, Piccadilly) get brutally hot in summer due to London clay absorbing and retaining heat underground. The Elizabeth line is fully air conditioned and runs east-west across the city — use it as much as possible in a heat wave. The National Gallery is experimenting with extended summer evening hours, staying open until 7 PM most evenings and until 9 PM on Fridays from July 1 — Jonathan's suggestion: have an early dinner, then walk over for a free evening of world-class art. Don't try to pack too much in. Pick three or four things you genuinely care about, build your days around those, and leave time to wander, sit in Green Park with a deck chair, or walk along the Thames in the long evening light. June in London is as much about the atmosphere as the attractions. ⠀ Soundbites "The light is the headline for June. You get sixteen to seventeen hours of daylight. Twilight stretches from around eight PM to nearly ten PM. You can have a full day of exploring, sit down for dinner, and still walk home along the Thames and have some daylight." — Jonathan on why June is London's best month. "If you've ever wondered what the best month to visit London is, a lot of people will quietly tell you it's this one." — Jonathan on June in London. Plan your day around it. Get up stupidly early — three, four, five in the morning — get your spot on the Mall and soak up the atmosphere. It'll be like a party atmosphere." — Jonathan on how to experience Trooping the Colour without a ticket. "The Queen's Fashion at The King's Gallery is sold out for the rest of the year, and I know a lot of people are gonna be really disappointed when they try to get tickets and they simply can't." — Jonathan's warning on the most in-demand exhibition of the summer. "The walls are packed from floor to ceiling and everything is for sale. It's chaotic and wonderful. And it's a great way to see up-and-coming artists and established artists side by side." — Jonathan on the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. "Shakespeare under the open sky in one of London's loveliest parks on a warm June evening — it doesn't get dark till ten PM anyway. Enjoy some champagne, enjoy some theater out in the green. That's my top theater pick for the month." — Jonathan on Regent's Park Open Air Theatre. "The first thing you should do after you land is go to what the British call an ironmonger — a hardware store — and buy a fan. Don't skimp. It is essential for Americans traveling in Europe." — Jonathan's number one summer travel tip. "The London clay is a heat sink. It absorbs heat and then it doesn't let it back out. So the tube gets really hot in the summer. If you are prone to heat issues, avoid the tube except the Elizabeth line, which is fully air conditioned." — Jonathan on navigating London in a heat wave. "I sat there in the rain in the 40s, got soaking wet. And I — not exaggerating — almost got hypothermia. It was July. I could not warm up when I got back to the hotel because the heating wasn't on and there weren't enough blankets because it was July." — Jonathan's cautionary tale about British summer weather. "Argos is exactly like Service Merchandise — you go in, there's a big catalog, you pick your thing, and it comes out on a conveyor belt. Get a fan. Don't even look at the weather forecast first. Just trust me — you're going to need a fan." — Jonathan's most practical London summer tip. ⠀ Chapters 00:21 Introduction — Jonathan launches the experimental monthly London events format 01:15 The Feel of June in London — Long days, the light, and why June is special 02:20 June Weather — What to expect, heat waves, and the maritime humidity problem 03:45 Peak Tourist Season — Crowds, hotel prices, and why June still beats July 05:00 Trooping the Colour — What it is, how to see it without a ticket, and Jonathan's tips for getting a good spot 08:30 Royal Ascot — Fascinators on the tube, the royal procession, and how to get tickets 10:00 Wimbledon — The ballot, resale tickets, strawberries and cream, and what to do if you can't get in 11:30 How to Book Exhibitions — Why advance booking is non-negotiable and the Queen's Fashion sellout warning 13:00 Frida Kahlo at Tate Modern — Jonathan's pick and why Tate Modern is worth seeing for the building alone 14:30 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition (June 16) — The world's largest open submission art show 15:30 Anish Kapoor at the Hayward Gallery (June 16) — The Cloud Gate connection and why it's worth seeing 16:15 Marilyn Monroe at the National Portrait Gallery — Just opened, book fast 17:00 Barbara Hepworth at the Courtauld Gallery — And why Somerset House is worth a visit anyway 17:45 Schiaparelli at the V&A — Fashion exhibitions and why the V&A excels at them 18:15 Wes Anderson at the Design Museum — A treat for film fans 18:45 James McNeill Whistler at Tate Britain — A sellout show, book immediately 19:30 Wallace & Gromit at Young V&A — The Aardman exhibition Jonathan is hoping to catch in August 20:15 Closing This Month — Mikalojus Čiurlionis at the Royal Academy (closes June 21) and Hokusai at Dulwich (closes June 30) 21:00 Theater — Why June is the best time for London theater 21:30 Regent's Park Open Air Theatre — A Midsummer Night's Dream, Jonathan's top pick of the month 22:00 Shakespeare's Globe — Much Ado About Nothing from June 11 22:30 New West End Openings — To Kill a Mockingbird (June 25) and Cyrano de Bergerac (June 13) 23:00 Long-Running Shows — Lion King, Hamilton, Wicked, Six, Les Mis, and how to get discount tickets 24:00 Live Music — Harry Styles at Wembley, Olivia Dean at the O2, Orville Peck at the Roundhouse 25:00 Practical Tips: Heat — Does London have air conditioning?

Buckingham Palace is facing fresh accusations over its handling of evidence linked to former Prince Andrew, a director is drawing backlash for harsh comments about the late Val Kilmer more than a year after the actor’s death, and Jimmy Kimmel admits the end of Stephen Colbert’s show has prompted him to take a hard look at his own late-night future.

Jess Michaels, a Jeffrey Epstein survivor, accused Buckingham Palace of helping shield Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor by failing to act on damaging material it reportedly received years earlier. The central issue is an archive of roughly 30,000 emails allegedly handed to the Palace's Lord Chamberlain in May 2020, tied to Andrew's work as a UK trade envoy and his dealings with powerful business figures. Those emails reportedly suggested Andrew may have shared sensitive or confidential government-related information, including material connected to his official role, and raised questions about whether the Palace had evidence of potential misconduct long before police action began.Michaels argued that the Palace's alleged inaction fits a broader pattern of institutions protecting powerful men while survivors were ignored, doubted, or left to fight alone. Andrew, who has denied wrongdoing, was later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in connection with allegations that he passed sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein, and Thames Valley Police are also assessing related claims involving possible sexual misconduct. The broader implication is that the scandal is no longer only about Andrew's relationship with Epstein or Virginia Giuffre's allegations, but about whether Buckingham Palace had information that should have triggered accountability years earlier and instead allowed the matter to remain buried.to contact me:bobbcapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein survivor accuses palace of cover-up

Charlotte Manley, a longtime aide to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (formerly Prince Andrew), has said she is willing to speak with police about her time working for him between 1996 and 2003 as investigators revisit issues connected to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Manley served in several senior administrative roles, including assistant private secretary, private secretary, and treasurer, and often accompanied Andrew during his tenure as the United Kingdom's special trade envoy. During that time she handled travel arrangements, finances, and other official matters on his behalf. One detail drawing renewed attention is a £75 cheque she signed in 2000 from a Buckingham Palace account to pay a South African masseuse whose visit to Andrew was reportedly arranged by Ghislaine Maxwell. The woman who provided the massage later said the encounter at Buckingham Palace was awkward but not inappropriate, though the episode has become part of the broader scrutiny surrounding Andrew's associations with Epstein. Manley has indicated that if authorities want information about that period, she would rather provide it directly to police than discuss it publicly.The renewed attention to Manley's role comes amid a broader investigation into Andrew's conduct and his long-standing ties to Epstein, which have drawn increased scrutiny following newly released investigative materials and recent legal developments. Andrew was arrested earlier in 2026 on suspicion of misconduct in public office related to his activities while serving as trade envoy, though he denies wrongdoing and remains under investigation. Authorities are also examining financial arrangements and other aspects of his official activities during the period when Epstein was part of his social circle. Investigators are revisiting records, payments, and travel details connected to Andrew's past engagements, and former staff members such as Manley may provide insight into how those activities were managed administratively. Her willingness to cooperate with police therefore represents another step in the ongoing effort by investigators to reconstruct the scope of Andrew's dealings during the years when his relationship with Epstein was most active.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew's former PA will speak to police about her time serving royalBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Emails reportedly handed to Buckingham Palace in 2020 appeared to show that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor shared confidential government information while serving as a UK trade envoy. According to the report, the cache contained more than 30,000 emails, allegedly from the account of British businessman Jonathan Rowland, an associate of Andrew's, and included material connected to Andrew's financial dealings. The emails were reportedly sent to the Lord Chamberlain six years ago, months after Andrew stepped back from royal duties following his disastrous Newsnight interview over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew was later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office over allegations that he passed sensitive government information to Epstein while working as a trade envoy; he denies wrongdoing.The most damaging part is the timeline: if these emails were already in Palace hands in 2020, then the question becomes what Buckingham Palace knew, what it did with that information, and whether serious concerns about Andrew's trade envoy conduct were allowed to sit quietly for years. The report also ties the emails to earlier claims that Andrew requested confidential Treasury information about Iceland's financial crisis in 2010 and then passed details to Jonathan Rowland before a business move involving Kaupthing Bank. With police inquiries still ongoing, the Palace declined to comment, citing the investigation, but the story adds another layer to the broader Andrew scandal: Epstein was not the only issue — the allegations now reach into Andrew's official government role, his business contacts, and the possibility that warning signs were sitting inside the royal household years before public accountability caught up.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Palace was given emails about Andrew's trade envoy activities six years ago, report says | UK news | The Guardian

The charity, Médicins Sans Frontières, has warned that no previous outbreak of Ebola has recorded as many cases at such an early stage as the current one in Democratic Republic of the Congo. The head of the World Health Organisation, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has spent the day in the city of Bunia in the north-east of the country - the epicentre of the outbreak. In other news, it's emerged that Buckingham Palace was handed emails six years ago that appear to show the then-Prince Andrew was sharing confidential government information while he was a trade envoy. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is under investigation on suspicion of misconduct in public office and has consistently denied wrongdoing. And Liverpool have sacked their manager, Arne Slot, saying the club was looking for a "change of direction."

Driven by increased production capacity and a cooling of the post-pandemic "bourbon craze," popular labels are becoming much easier to find without relying on raffles, lotteries, or secondary markets.While true "unicorn" status bottles (like Pappy Van Winkle or George T. Stagg) remain incredibly rare, the wider market is shifting.

Whether they're pulling faces at the Queen's Jubilee, melting hearts on Christmas morning or being cheeky with their cousins at Buckingham Palace, the youngest generation of royals never fails to delight. From George and Charlotte to their cheeky little brother Louis, these little royal rascals are firm fan favourites. And in this episode of The Right Royal Podcast we speak with Getty Photographer Chris Jackson, who has had the privilege of going on tour with the Wales children and has taken some of the most iconic pictures of them - including Prince George's 4th birthday portrait. We are also joined by former Press Secretary to the Queen, Ailsa Anderson, who was one of the only people at Frimley Park Hospital when Lady Louise Windsor was born. And finally, we speak with Ex-Norland Nanny and The Sleep Mums podcast host Sarah Carpenter, who gives us an insight into the training it takes to become a royal nanny.

Frederic Fekkai, the celebrity hairstylist and luxury brand mogul, was named in court documents by Virginia Roberts Giuffre as one of the individuals to whom Jeffrey Epstein allegedly trafficked her for sex. Giuffre's sworn testimony placed Fekkai among a group of elite men who, according to her account, participated in Epstein's trafficking ring by engaging in sexual acts with her while she was underage and under Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's control. Fekkai has denied the allegations and has not been charged with any crime, but his inclusion in the unsealed legal filings tied him to the wider web of high-profile names associated with Epstein's network of abuse and exploitation.Unlike some of the more politically prominent figures in Epstein's circle, Fekkai's alleged involvement drew relatively little media attention, despite the gravity of the accusations. He had previously cultivated an image rooted in fashion, luxury, and celebrity culture, with clientele that included some of the most powerful women in the world. His reported proximity to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell underscores the breadth and diversity of Epstein's social reach—stretching from Wall Street to Hollywood, from Buckingham Palace to beauty salons. While no further legal action has been taken against Fekkai, the mention of his name in Giuffre's testimony serves as yet another example of how Epstein's circle was studded with individuals from every corner of elite society, many of whom have faced little to no accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comhttps://www.thedailybeast.com/jeffrey-epstein-flaunted-girls-after-his-arrest-at-frederic-fekkais-hair-salon-for-the-starsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

From an unknown actress to the First Lady of Musical Theatre, Dame Elaine Paige's story is one of the great showbusiness journeys. Eighteen years of auditions, rejection, and near-quitting before one role changed her life overnight. In this chat with Josh, Elaine opens up about the chaos that happened when the world found out she'd been cast in Evita, how she escaped a pack of journalists who chased her down the street, and the moment she burst into tears telling her mum she didn't want the fame that came with it. She tells the extraordinary story of how she came to perform the iconic song Memory in Cats, and taking to the stage in Sunset Boulevard only a few hours after recovering from breast cancer surgery. She also reflects on meeting actress Rachel Zegler who took on Elaine's famous role in Evita, the life-changing wisdom Stephen Sondheim passed on to her, and why she thinks music and arts in state schools should be everybody's urgent priority. Oh, and she has a copy of her 23rd solo album, Miscellaneous Paige on its way to Buckingham Palace for the King. Elaine's album Miscellaneous Paige is out July 17th and her single Only A Lifetime is out now

In late 2019, Prince Andrew sat down for his now-infamous BBC Newsnight interview, claiming that he would “meet the allegations head-on” concerning his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and the accusations made by Virginia Giuffre. He insisted that he had “no recollection of ever meeting” Giuffre, denied any sexual contact with her, and even offered an alibi involving a family trip to Pizza Express in Woking. The Duke portrayed his relationship with Epstein as one of poor judgment rather than complicity, saying he only stayed friends with the disgraced financier to sever ties “honorably.” His insistence that the association had been “very useful” for business and social connections further fueled public outrage, painting him as detached and tone-deaf in the face of serious allegations.The fallout was swift and brutal. What Andrew described as an attempt to clear his name became a PR catastrophe that effectively ended his public life. The interview was condemned for his lack of remorse, his robotic demeanor, and his failure to express sympathy for Epstein's victims. Within days, major institutions and charities cut ties with him, and Buckingham Palace announced that he would be stepping down from royal duties indefinitely. His promise to cooperate with U.S. investigators later proved hollow, as American prosecutors repeatedly complained that he had not made himself available for questioning. The man who vowed to “meet it head-on” instead retreated into silence, leaving his credibility — and his legacy — in tatters.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

A newly updated edition of royal biographer Prince Andrew Andrew Lownie's book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York contains allegations that Prince Andrew violently kicked one of his Labradors during a pheasant shoot at Sandringham after the dog grabbed a sausage roll from a guest. According to the account, the dog snatched the food from the guest's hand, prompting laughter from those nearby before Andrew allegedly reacted by kicking the animal in the head hard enough to leave it whimpering on the ground. The guest reportedly confronted Andrew over what was described as “disgusting” behavior toward the dog, which allegedly triggered an angry response from Andrew insisting the dogs belonged to him and that he could treat them however he wanted.The story quickly became part of the wider portrait being painted of Andrew in the updated biography, which depicts him as increasingly isolated, bitter, entitled, and detached from public reality following years of scandal surrounding his association with Jeffrey Epstein. The book claims that several people present sided with the guest who challenged Andrew, and even alleges that Prince Philip later privately told the guest that both he and Queen Elizabeth agreed Andrew “needed a good scolding from time to time.” The allegations arrive as Andrew remains deeply toxic to the monarchy's public image, with Buckingham Palace continuing to distance itself from him following the collapse of his royal standing and ongoing scrutiny surrounding his past behavior and personal associations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
