Historian Alleges Sarah Ferguson Funded by Jeffrey Epstein

New biographies and testimonies reveal extensive and complex ties between Prince Andrew, his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Historian Andrew Lownie claims Epstein financially supported Ferguson for years, covering significant expenses and debts, despite Epstein's 2008 conviction, with the relationship benefiting both Ferguson and Andrew. Lownie describes their relationship as mutually advantageous, with Epstein gaining status and access through Andrew, who in turn received introductions, a lavish lifestyle, and financial help for Ferguson. Additionally, Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's convicted associate, alleged in recent testimony that Epstein may have been set up with Princess Diana as a date at a social event, though Maxwell denied introducing Andrew to Epstein and claimed a controversial photo involving Andrew and Epstein's victim was fake. Maxwell's revelations add further complexity to the social circles surrounding Epstein, though many claims remain contested or unproven. These disclosures highlight the enduring and troubling connections between members of the British royal family and Epstein’s circle, underscoring ongoing public and legal scrutiny.
