Political Pressure and Past Lawsuit

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has also weighed in, stating that Andrew — who was stripped of his royal titles last year — should appear in court to answer questions about his relationship with Epstein.

In 2021, Andrew was sued for sexual assault by Virginia Giuffre, who alleged he raped her three times, beginning when she was 17, as part of Epstein’s sex trafficking operation.

That lawsuit was settled out of court for a reported multimillion-pound sum.

Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing in connection to Epstein.

William and Kate Speak Out

Earlier this month, William, 43, and Kate, 44, addressed the Epstein files publicly for the first time, saying they were “deeply concerned by the continuing revelations.”

“Their thoughts remain focused on the victims,” their spokesperson added.
