Kensington Palace issues rare statement expressing “deep concern” following the release of incriminating documents and photographs in the United States.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have officially distanced themselves from the deepening controversy surrounding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, issuing their first public comment on the matter. A spokesperson for Kensington Palace stated that Prince William and Princess Catherine are “deeply concerned” by the steady stream of revelations emerging from unsealed court files in the U.S. regarding the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“I can confirm The Prince and Princess have been deeply concerned by the continuing revelations,” the official statement read, emphasizing that the couple’s “thoughts remain focused on the victims.”
Eviction and New Allegations
The intervention from the future monarchs coincides with Mountbatten-Windsor’s abrupt departure from his long-term residence, the Royal Lodge. While Buckingham Palace had initially scheduled his exit for early 2026, the timeline appears to have been accelerated due to the severity of the new disclosures. The former prince has reportedly relocated to the Sandringham Estate, a private property owned by King Charles.
The pressure on Mountbatten-Windsor has intensified following the publication of a fresh cache of documents. These files include photographs that lack context but appear to show him in compromising positions, including one image where he is kneeling on all fours over a woman. Furthermore, a recovered 2015 email attributed to Epstein’s convicted associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, seemingly verifies the authenticity of the infamous photograph showing Mountbatten-Windsor embracing accuser Virginia Giuffre—an image he previously suggested might be doctored.
Maxwell wrote that she was present when the photo was taken in 2001, contradicting Mountbatten-Windsor’s long-standing claim that he had no recollection of meeting Giuffre.
Thames Valley Police are currently assessing separate allegations involving a second woman who claims she was trafficked to the UK for a sexual encounter with Mountbatten-Windsor at the Royal Lodge in 2010.
