The King, the Prince and the paedophile - The Epstein scandal deepens

The King, the Prince and the paedophile - The Epstein scandal deepens

It’s the scandal that refuses to die, and it’s climbing higher up the royal ladder.

Revelations from the so-called “Epstein files” have already toppled a former prince and a senior British ambassador. Now, for the first time, King Charles is named in an email from convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, with claims he was blamed for stripping then Prince Andrew of his trade envoy role.

In this episode of The Briefing with Natarsha Belling, royal historian Andrew Lownie reacts to the ongoing fallout from the Epstein files and the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. He claims what we’ve seen so far is only the tip of the iceberg, pointing to a vast network spanning sex trafficking allegations, financial dealings, intelligence agencies and even national security concerns.

Andrew Lownie wrote the unauthorised biography, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, which alleges a massive cover-up by key government agencies and the Monarchy over the former Prince Andrew.
