Photograph of Andrew among latest release of images from Epstein estate

A photograph of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is among the latest release of images from the estate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Almost 100 pictures were shared by Democrats on the US’s House Oversight Committee on Friday which are separate from the case files with the Department of Justice.
Nineteen photos were released initially, featuring an image of a suited Andrew standing in a room next to Microsoft magnate Bill Gates.
Further pictures were shared later on Friday night, including one showing the tag on a sex toy called “The Jawbreaker Gag” and several of what appeared to be Epstein’s property.
No captions or context have been provided for any of the images.
Andrew has made headlines in recent months over his association with Epstein, with the King officially stripping his disgraced brother of both his HRH style and his prince title.
The former duke has for many years faced allegations that he sexually assaulted a teenage Virginia Giuffre after she was trafficked by Epstein. Andrew strenuously denies the accusations.
He paid millions to Ms Giuffre to settle a civil sexual assault claim in 2022.
Andrew stepped down from royal duties in 2019 after his disastrous Newsnight interview but the publication of Ms Giuffre’s posthumous memoirs, and the US government’s release of documents from Epstein’s estate, has brought fresh focus on Andrew recently.
American politicians have criticised the former prince for his “silence” after he missed a deadline last month to respond to their request to sit for an interview about Epstein.
US president Donald Trump also featured in the latest release of images, with one black-and-white photo showing him standing with a group of six women whose faces are blacked out.
Epstein was found dead in his cell at a federal jail in Manhattan, New York, in August 2019 while he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges. His death was ruled a suicide.
