A photograph of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is among the latest release of images from the estate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Nineteen pictures were shared yesterday by Democrats on the US House oversight committee. They are separate from documents held in case files by the Department of Justice.

Featured in the batch is an image of a suited former prince standing in a room next to Microsoft magnate Bill Gates, as well as a photo of Virgin Group founder Sir Richard Branson on a beach with Epstein and another man.

No captions or context have been provided for any of the images.

Mr Mountbatten-Windsor has made headlines in recent months over his association with Epstein, with the King officially stripping his disgraced brother of both his HRH style and his prince title.

The former duke has for many years faced allegations that he sexually assaulted a teenage Virginia Giuffre after she was trafficked by Epstein. Mr Mountbatten-Windsor strenuously denies the accusations. He paid millions to Ms Giuffre to settle a civil sexual assault claim in 2022.

Mr Mountbatten-Windsor stepped down from royal duties in 2019 after his disastrous Newsnight interview, but the publication of Ms Giuffre's posthumous memoirs and the US government's release of documents from Epstein's estate have brought fresh focus on him recently.
