Jeffrey Epstein‘s obsession with the Royal Family can be seen in one of the more bizarre photographs from inside his home.
Inexplicably framed and hung in the back of a wardrobe was the front page of The Times from June 1994, when the then-Prince Charles told interviewer Jonathan Dimbleby that divorcing Princess Diana would not prevent him from becoming King.
The story was accompanied by a full-length photo of Diana in her so-called ‘revenge dress’ – an off-the-shoulder evening gown that has been described as the most iconic little black dress of all time, which she wore for a high-profile gala in London on the night the interview aired on ITV.
The front page is thought to predate paedophile financier Epstein meeting Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor – the now former Duke of York – with the pair being introduced a few years later by socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, a friend of Andrew’s from university and Epstein’s girlfriend-turned-madam.
Documents released by the US Justice Department over the weekend include scores of photos of the inside of Epstein’s residences.
It is believed The Times’ front page, which has the headline ‘Divorce is no bar to throne says Prince’, was found by the FBI in Epstein’s ‘compound’ on his private Caribbean island of Little Saint James.

The photo shows it in the back of a wardrobe, with polo shirts hanging in front and a pair of shoes in the base.
As with all the photos released, there is no explanation of the context – something that has led to criticism from politicians and victims of Epstein.
