Hello, everybody! Today, we’re heading back to 2011. We’ve given you the story of how Fergie and Prince Andrew met, married and broke up. Now you have that context, we have a more harrowing, but even more important story to tell: How Prince Andrew became involved with Jeffrey Epstein, and exactly the kinds of allegations levelled at him by Virginia Giuffre. Welcome to the third episode of a new series by Shameless Media - Andrew and Fergie: A Very Royal Scandal. A trigger warning for this one: it will detail allegations of sexual abuse and suicide. Listener discretion is advised. If you need help, call Lifeline on 11 13 14.  All the links we mentioned in today’s episode are below: Perversion of Justice: Jeffrey Epstein The Relentless Ego of Ghislaine Maxwell “I Collect People, I Own People”: The Curious Sociopathy of Jeffrey Epstein Truth and Lies: Jeffrey Epstein Podcast - ABC Audio Got some thoughts on this scandal you wanna share?

Link to this episode in the new The Shameless Book Club feed: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1absaYb3dT0XpgPniym8S0?si=e83fbbce18a64858 Happy Saturday, book club fam! This month, we read the incredible memoir from writer Amy Bloom, called In Love. In January 2020, Amy traveled to Switzerland with her husband Brian where he was helped by Dignitas to end his life after a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. The book details their love story, Brian’s slow decline, and Amy’s doggedness in ensuring her husband died with dignity. It’s a book about love, agency, and grief and encourages the reader to think a lot about what it means to live, and what it means to die. It was a heavy one, but a beautiful one.  Got some thoughts on our September pick, ‘Black Cake’ by Charmaine Wilkerson?
