Epstein email says Andrew had photo taken with Virginia Giuffre

November 13, 2025

Newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein's estate appear to confirm the authenticity of a photograph showing Prince Andrew with Virginia Giuffre, contradicting Andrew's previous claims that he never met her and that the image might have been fabricated. The 2011 correspondence, published by House Democrats alongside over 20,000 pages of documents, also reveals that Epstein and Andrew maintained contact longer than the prince previously acknowledged, and shows Epstein attempting to undermine Giuffre's credibility. Andrew settled a lawsuit with Giuffre in 2022 without admitting wrongdoing after she accused him of sexual assault when she was a teenager.

Who is affected

  • Prince Andrew (Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor), the former prince who was stripped of his titles
  • Virginia Giuffre, Epstein accuser who alleged sexual encounters with Andrew as a teenager
  • Jeffrey Epstein's estate and reputation (posthumously)
  • Ghislaine Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking
  • The British Royal Family and Buckingham Palace
  • Democrats on the House Oversight Committee conducting the investigation

What action is being taken

  • Democrats on the House Oversight Committee are investigating Epstein and have requested Andrew to testify
  • The House Oversight Committee is publishing correspondence from Epstein's estate (over 20,000 pages released)
  • Congressman Suhas Subramanyam is publicly stating that Andrew can testify remotely

Why it matters

  • This release significantly undermines Andrew's long-maintained denials about meeting Virginia Giuffre and his suggestions that photographic evidence was fabricated, as the confirmation comes directly from Epstein himself. The documents reveal a pattern of deception about the timeline and nature of Andrew's relationship with Epstein, extending their contact beyond what Andrew previously admitted. The revelations have serious implications for Andrew's credibility and provide new evidence in ongoing efforts to hold powerful figures accountable for their connections to Epstein's sex trafficking operation.

What's next

  • Andrew has been invited to testify before the House Oversight Committee (with the option to do so remotely) but has not yet responded to the request
