Prince Andrew told Jeffrey Epstein 'we're in this together' in 2011 email [View all]

Royal sent email after Virginia Giuffre photo emerged but later claimed he had ceased contact with Epstein in 2010

Prince Andrew told Jeffrey Epstein in an email “we are in this together” after a picture of the British royal with his arm around a teenage Virginia Giuffre was first published in 2011.

Andrew emailed Epstein on 28 February 2011, the day after the well-known photograph of the duke, Giuffre and Ghislaine Maxwell was made public. He told Epstein to “keep in close touch” and expressed a wish to “play some more soon”.
