Based on my investigation of the documents, I can now provide specific evidence about what happened during Prince Andrew’s eight trips with Epstein in one year. Here’s what the evidence shows:
The Eight Trips: Specific Details and Evidence
Documented Timeline of the Eight Jaunts (2000-2001)
According to the detailed account in EFTA01230433.pdf, Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell enjoyed eight different jaunts together in the space of a year [, ]. The specific trips were:
- February 2000: Holiday in Palm Beach
- March 2000: Traveled to New York for a fashion show
- April 2000: Back in New York for a fundraiser for the London Symphony Orchestra
- May 2000: Another round of socializing in New York
- June 2000: Another holiday in Florida
- Autumn 2000: Andrew flew to New York where they were spotted together
- December 2000: House party at Sandringham to mark Maxwell’s 39th birthday
- January 2001: Holiday in Phuket, Thailand
Crucially, on at least five of these eight occasions, Jeffrey Epstein was present as well []. Andrew also invited both Epstein and Maxwell to Windsor for the Queen’s birthday party [].
Flight Log Evidence
Flight logs show that Prince Andrew was a passenger on Epstein’s jet in May 2000 [, ]. One former Elite agency model allegedly traveled on Epstein’s aircraft more than 50 times []. There are claims that Epstein abused young girls on the jet, though there’s no suggestion Andrew had sexual contact with them or knew about the abuse [].
Virginia Giuffre’s Specific Allegations
Virginia Giuffre claims she met Prince Andrew three times during these travels [, ]:
First Meeting (March 2001, London):
- She accompanied Epstein on a six-week trip to Europe and North Africa in 2001
- They went to Ghislaine Maxwell’s London house where Andrew arrived the next day
- Maxwell served tea and biscuits to the four of them
- Maxwell invited Andrew to guess Virginia’s age – he correctly said “17”
- Maxwell joked that Jeffrey would “soon have to trace her in” (meaning replace her as she aged) []
- After dinner and a trip to Tramp nightclub where she danced with Andrew, they returned to Maxwell’s house
- They all went upstairs and Virginia asked Epstein to take a picture of her with Andrew “to show my mum” []
- “Ghislaine and Jeffrey left us after that, and later Andrew left” []
- The next morning, Maxwell told her: “You did well, he had fun” []
Second Meeting (Easter 2001, New York):
- Andrew was sitting in a leather armchair at Epstein’s Manhattan home
- Maxwell had given Andrew a Spitting Image puppet of himself
- Another Epstein associate, Johanna Sjoberg (21), was sitting on Andrew’s knee
- Maxwell made Virginia sit on Andrew’s other knee
- Maxwell put the puppet’s hand on Virginia’s breast, then Andrew put his hand on her breast []
- This was described as a “great joke” that earned Virginia $400 from Epstein []
Third Meeting (2001, Epstein’s Caribbean Island):
- By this time Virginia was 18
- No specific details provided about this encounter in the documents I reviewed
Photographic Evidence
There is a photograph marked as Exhibit JE3 showing Prince Andrew, Maxwell, and Virginia together [, ]. The photograph appears to have been taken in London in March 2001 []. Flight logs corroborate that on March 9, 2001, Epstein, Maxwell, Emmie Taylor, and Virginia flew on Epstein’s private jet from Tangier to Luton International Airport near London [].
Financial Transactions
After the London trip, Epstein paid Virginia $15,000, which she described as “amazing money, more than I’d ever made on a trip with him before” [].
The Broader Pattern
The documents show that Andrew’s travels with Epstein and Maxwell weren’t isolated incidents but part of a pattern of frequent socializing. They attended high-profile events together, including the Queen’s birthday party at Windsor []. One of Epstein’s friends, Nobel Prize-winning scientist Murray Gell-Mann, said he understood that Epstein had given the Queen financial advice [].
What’s Missing from the Record
While Virginia Giuffre’s allegations are detailed, the documents don’t contain direct eyewitness testimony of sexual encounters between Andrew and underage girls. The evidence consists of:
- Flight logs showing travel together
- Photographic evidence of them together
- Giuffre’s detailed allegations
- Financial transactions following meetings
- Maxwell’s comments about Andrew “having fun”
Prince Andrew has consistently denied all allegations, telling the BBC in 2019: “It didn’t happen” and claiming he had no recollection of having met Virginia Giuffre [].
Dig Deeper:
- “Flight logs show Epstein, Maxwell and Virginia flew from Tangier to London in March 2001 – what other flight records exist for Prince Andrew’s travels with Epstein?”
- “Maxwell told Virginia ‘You did well, he had fun’ after the London encounter – what other communications exist between Maxwell and Epstein about Prince Andrew?”
- “The $15,000 payment to Virginia was unusually large – what financial records show payments to other girls who interacted with Prince Andrew?”
