Trump Epstein Connections With Royal Family Exposed As New Prince Andrew Book Drops Thursday

When it rains it pours. Even if Donald Trump had managed to convince MAGA to stand down and stop asking about the Epstein files, they wouldn’t have been quiet for long. A brand new tell-all about Prince Andrew, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York is coming out on Thursday. It supposedly makes Prince Harry’s book, Spare, “look positively restrained.” It turns out that both Epstein and Trump were “obsessed by the Royal Family” and supposedly the two had a bet going on “who would be the first to sleep with Princess Diana” after her divorce from now-King Charles. And while all of this is hitting the fan, bear in mind that Donald and Melania are going over for a state visit to meet with Charles and Camilla next month. Aye aye aye aye aye.

Over five splashy days of serialisation in the Daily Mail, we learnt that Andrew, 65, was a “serial sex addict” who has apparently slept with more than 1,000 women. We read of him bringing “tarts” with “ample breasts” into the Palace to dine with Queen Elizabeth. The priapic prince’s unsolicited hands wander onto knees under tables, or plunge women’s faces into pâté for a laugh. He calls one staff member a “f***ing imbecile” for getting his grandmother’s royal title wrong. His golf cheating reaches Trumpian levels of flagrancy and he is said to have left used tissues, soiled from his own autoerotic exertions, strewn on the floor of his bedroom for others to pick up.

The book is equally damning of Ferguson, 65, the Duchess of Excess, who racks up unpaid bills like a ruinous Georgian prince. She allegedly spends £25,000 in a single hour in Bloomingdale’s. Her butler has to get into work at 4.30am to put watercress on ice. […]

In fairness to Lownie, his book is not just a catalogue of reckless royal indulgence; it also investigates the funding behind decades of unrestrained York hedonism. He insists that the real scandal of Andrew is “financial not sexual” and emphasises that he is a staunch monarchist. “I’m not a raving lefty,” he says. “I’m a former Conservative parliamentary candidate. It’s because I’m very keen on the monarchy that I want it to survive.”

Andrew’s finances have puzzled many an investigative journalist. Where do the millions he’s spent refurbishing and running Royal Lodge come from? Who provided the multimillion-pound payoff for Virginia Giuffre?

The territory Lownie crosses here is more familiar, taking in the £750,000 from the Turkish millionaire Nebahat Isbilen that ended up in Andrew’s Coutts account, described as a gift for Princess Beatrice’s wedding and later repaid. There are gifts to Ferguson from the multimillionaire scrap metal merchant David Rowland and huge loans to Andrew from Banque Havilland, owned by the Rowland family. Rowland accompanies the duke on some of his special representative trips and, Lownie alleges, Andrew often used these taxpayer-funded jaunts to conduct his own business activities too.

What surprised Lownie was the “sheer brazenness” of the whole thing. “This is what shocked me, the cover-up from the Palace,” he says. “They knew exactly what was going on. People are not going to like it, but the Queen was colluding in this. I originally thought she just put her head in the sand. But I increasingly have come to the view that she knew exactly what was going on and allowed it to happen.”

As I said earlier, Trump and Melania will be back in London on September 17. You know it’s going to be some kind of a bizarre scene. That’s the only guarantee. And with this new book coming out and the scandal with Virginia Guiffre revived, and Americans of all political stripes in the states screaming for the Epstein list, I really can’t believe King Charles is doing this. But who knows? Maybe he figures it will all be good for laughs. And on that level, he’s right.
