I haven’t watched the interview, but heard reports of the content. I just find it unbelievable he claims he can’t remember meeting a woman he had his arm around! Despicable. Does anyone believe him?

I’m surprised he didn’t mention that pizza express Woking was positively hoaching that night and that he barely managed to squeeze Beattie in through the door.

Looking at the reviews, every fucker and his corgi was in there that night. Grin

Now now, Lyra, do keep up ... he was an aquaintance, not a friend

Silly me. I should probably track down my old acquaintances to make sure they realise our link is over after several years. Just in case...

On the other hand, apparently Ghislaine is a friend - so it'll be interesting to hear what he says when the press dig up even more dirt on her

Very much so

It's interesting that a friend who brought someone who was being investigated for sexual offences to a royal event, without telling them what was happened, as her plus one is still a friend... People have been cast out for far, far less

Almost as if she needs to be kept close

Not true mrsmadevans - he is the product of a rich entitled cult of paedo multimillionaires. I will not give that man the benefit of the doubt, it stinks to high heaven.

Interested in this thread?

Why wouldn’t anyone believe someone who stayed in a Convicted Sex Offender and Convicted Sex Trafficker’s house for 4 days, just because he wanted to do the “honourable” thing of telling him why he couldn’t hang out with him again?
Perfectly reasonable?
No....?

Puzzledandpissedoff · 16/11/2019 22:54

*Almost as if (Ghislaine) needs to be kept close

Indeed ...

If find the quote from Sarah Ferguson's Wikipedia (I know, not the most reliable source) interesting.

"It was reported in August 2010 that the Duchess might declare voluntary bankruptcy with debts of £5 million,[66] though other sources had suggested she owed about £2 million.[67]
In March 2011, it was reported that Jeffrey Epstein had helped the Duchess avoid bankruptcy by paying off some of her debts. The payments were reportedly made after intervention from the Duke of York"

Interesting that he had nothing more to do with him but he paid off his ex wife's debts.

ssd · 16/11/2019 22:59

That wiki page will disappear when the Palace reads it

gamerwidow · 16/11/2019 23:00

He stayed at Epstein's house AFTER he was convicted as a paedophile. At best he is a man who doesn't care if his friend abuses young girl's.
Even if he isn't guilty this says a hell of a lot about his character.

SunsetBoulevard3 · 16/11/2019 23:00

Everyone knows Epstein paid off Fergies debts. I've heard it several times.

Totally think he is did sleep with her but not convinced she is completely innocent.
Jesus Christ!

RhinoskinhaveI · 16/11/2019 23:02

We all know he's up to his neck in it, he knows we all know, but he also knows that he can't be taken down so he carries on with his pantomime just to amuse himself and enjoy his privileged position
he's just laughing at us all

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 16/11/2019 23:04

I am crying reading the reviews of pizza express Woking.
(Andrew can add that to his list of dogooding: saving Pizza Express from bankruptcy)

Anyway. I would like Emily Maitlis to interview Ghislaine Maxwelland Virginia Roberts.

Scribblescribbles · 16/11/2019 23:05

The law is different for the royals apparently. They all stick together like shit on a stick.

Sorry for long link.

Very odd that this was all happening at the same time that Andrew was apparently ending their relationship.

Also odd that Epstein apparently only paid £15,000 - if that was all that was required why couldn't the Yorks get the money from elsewhere?couldn't they have sold something? It sounds as though there was more to it.

PeterRouseTheFleshofMankind · 16/11/2019 23:08

No one is asking why these women once they were older, kept on 'working' Epstein and allowing themselves to work as prostitutes

Oh fuck off.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 16/11/2019 23:08

All in good time, Curly - I fear that if Andrew thinks he's heard the last of this he's very much mistaken

No doubt, though, we'll be treated to numerous photos of mummy being "escorted" by her boy (if escorted's an allowable word in the circumstances)

lookatthebabypenguin · 16/11/2019 23:09

Because it keeps popping up...

If you facilitate or arrange the travel of a person so that they can then be raped or sexually exploited, whether by you or someone else, that is trafficking. Even if the victim originally consented to the travel.

It does not require that person to be kidnapped or sold or physically restrained. It literally just means that somebody else transported and then raped or assaulted them.

ElizaStrawberry · 16/11/2019 23:10

Can we watch this on catch up?

www.independent.co.uk/news/people/prince-andrew-buys-13-million-verbier-ski-chalet-with-former-wife-9969811.html

How do you go from scrabbling around trying to find £15K to buying a £13,000,000 ski chalet?

Leflic · 16/11/2019 23:14

Mmm. A headteacher has just be awarded a massive payout because it’s perfectly legal in the eyes of the court for a 42 year old man to have sex with two 17 year olds picked up online.

Unless Andrew suspected she was trafficked rather than just being opportunistic staff shagging a 17 year old is apparently fine. And Andrews episode awhile ago when things were even worse from a motalistic viewpoint,

NumbersStation · 16/11/2019 23:14

A good toe suck probably costs around 15k in some circles.

lolaflores · 16/11/2019 23:15

Where is The Maxwell One this weather? Have charges been brought against her? Is there a warrant out for her at least?

Puzzledandpissedoff · 16/11/2019 23:15

Very odd that (Epstein's payment of Fergie's debts) was all happening at the same time that Andrew was apparently ending their relationship

All grist to the media's mill no doubt, and it's pretty certain they'll soon be rehashing the whole thing

God knows he's just handed them enough to go on ...

merrymouse · 16/11/2019 23:15

Silly me. I should probably track down my old acquaintances to make sure they realise our link is over after several years. Just in case...

1). Track down old acquaintance
2). Make sure they know all ties are severed
3). Ask them for money.
