Newly released documents reveal Epstein's proposal for Prince Andrew to meet a Russian woman, raising further scrutiny of their ties.
Late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein proposed introducing a Russian woman to King Charles III’s brother Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, newly released documents showed on Friday (January 30, 2026).
The discussion about the woman appears in some of the millions of new pages released on Friday (January 30, 2026) by the U.S. Justice Department, as well as an apparent exchange weeks later about an invitation to Buckingham Palace.
In one August 12, 2010 email, Epstein told Andrew — addressed as “The Duke” — that he had “a friend who I think you might enjoy having dinner with” and said she would be in London from August 20 to 24, the documents show.
Andrew asked what Epstein had told her about him and whether she would be bringing “a message” from Epstein, the messages indicate.
In a subsequent email, Andrew replied that he would be in Geneva on August 22, but “would be delighted to see her”.
Epstein said the woman was 26, Russian, clever and beautiful, adding that she had the Prince’s email.
