NEED TO KNOW<\/p>\n
Former\u00a0Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor<\/a>\u00a0and his ex-wife\u00a0Sarah Ferguson<\/a> can be been seen in photos from the recently released\u00a0Jeffrey Epstein<\/a>\u00a0files.<\/p>\n The new photos came after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee initially\u00a0shared a selection of photos from Epstein’s estate<\/a>\u00a0on Friday, Dec. 12.\n<\/p>\n A week later, on Friday, Dec. 19, the Department of Justice released additional documents and photos \u2014 reportedly more than 95,000 images \u2014 related to the late convicted sex offender, as part of a Congressional mandate<\/a>. The newly released files focus on the evidence and other materials the federal government obtained during its criminal investigations into Epstein.\n<\/p>\n Many of the photos lack context and do not have listed dates, and many of the women’s faces have been redacted for privacy. However, Andrew, 65, could be seen in one photo wearing formal attire as he lay across the laps of five women.\n<\/p>\n Epstein’s longtime co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell,<\/a>\u00a0stood above the former prince, smiling beside another woman whose face was also redacted.\n<\/p>\n Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor lying across row of women in photo during black-tie event with Ghislaine Maxwell has been released as part of the Epstein files.<\/p>\n Department of Justice<\/p>\n In other photos, Ferguson is seen talking to a woman while she sits on a couch. Another image shows her posing with someone on the street.\n<\/p>\n The then-couple’s photos released on Dec. 19 are amongst many others disclosed in recent weeks that include high-profile figures like former President Bill Clinton<\/a>, Kevin Spacey<\/a>, Noam Chomsky<\/a>, Richard Branson<\/a>, Chris Tucker<\/a>, Diana Ross<\/a>, Mick Jagger<\/a>, Michael Jackson<\/a>, David Copperfield<\/a> and Walter Cronkite<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n Images previously released from the Epstein estate materials turned over to the House earlier this month showed Andrew, Clinton, President\u00a0Donald Trump<\/a>, Bill Gates<\/a>,\u00a0Woody Allen<\/a>, Sergey Brin<\/a> and\u00a0Steve Bannon<\/a>, PEOPLE reported at the time.<\/p>\n Sarah Ferguson in the Epstein files.<\/p>\n Department of Justice<\/p>\n The images of Andrew follow his Oct. 17 announcement that he would give up the use of his royal titles and other titles and honors amid renewed interest in his relationship to Epstein. He was to retain the Prince Andrew title at the time, but King Charles<\/a>\u00a0stripped his younger brother of his royal titles<\/a> on Oct. 30.\n<\/p>\n The removal of Andrew’s titles followed his 2019 headline-making\u00a0BBC interview<\/a>\u00a0in which he discussed his relationship with Epstein. Shortly after, he\u00a0announced he was stepping back from his public role.<\/a>\n<\/p>\n “My former association with Jeffrey Epstein has become a major disruption to my family\u2019s work,” he said at the time.\n<\/p>\n Sarah Ferguson in the Epstein files.<\/p>\n Department of Justice<\/p>\n Then, in January 2022, his attorneys attempted to have Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre’s\u00a0sexual assault lawsuit<\/a>\u00a0against him dismissed. However, a judge rejected the attempt and Queen Elizabeth stripped her son of his\u00a0military titles and patronages<\/a>\u00a0that same month. He settled with Giuffre out of court for an undisclosed amount.\n<\/p>\n Giuffre died by suicide<\/a> in April 2025 at 41 years old.\n<\/p>\n Andrew has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.\n<\/p>\n
