Prince Andrew’s association with Jeffrey Epstein is once again under the microscope following the arrest of the late convicted sex offender’s girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Nigel Cawthorne, the author of Prince Andrew, Epstein and the Palace, says Maxwell’s arrest has inevitably dredged up allegations about Andrew’s association with the under-age sex ring.
“The royal family must have known this was coming,” says Nigel. “Prince Andrew in particular is now in a very difficult position.”
Although Nigel observes that Prince Andrew, 60, appears “rather too thickskinned to panic”, it’s probable crisis talks are being held with palace advisors about this development and the potential implications on the Duke of York and the royal family.
“This is all happening behind palace walls, so we won’t get to know the ins-andouts of it,” Nigel speculates.
A crisis team of “advisors” is likely to be guiding the royals on how to navigate the situation and avoid further reputation damage – but Nigel notes that Prince Andrew has infamously gone rogue before. “Obviously, he did that TV interview last year against everyone’s advice, including Ghislaine Maxwell’s,” he says.
