Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem appeared in the Epstein emails relating to a torture video.

The charity commission is looking into this. Will Earthshot make a comment or distance themselves?

Canadian pension giant already halted deals with DP World over this scandal.

Questions for Prince William as Earthshot Prize 'founding partner' appears in Epstein files

Were these emails known about before William met with him? I'm guessing they were? This all just gets worse and worse for the RF.

I don’t think the emails were known. Earthshot needs money to run so there’s no wrongdoing here. What’s more important is what William will say and what Earthshot will do now that this information is out there. It was “no comment” last time ITV asked.

Apparently it seems William Prize is being investigated. But like they did with Charles after receiving dirty arab money, they will find nothing... 🤫(I hope I'm wrong)

William and Catherine also spent last vacation in one of their ships in Greece, it was only wildly reported in Greek media

Apparently, Prince William’s Earthshot Prize has been reported to the UK Charity Commission by Republic (an anti-monarchy group) over concerns about its donors.
The commission is assessing the complaint, but no formal findings or penalties have been announced.

Separately, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, former chairman and CEO of DP World, recently resigned amid scrutiny after his name appeared in documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.

DP World remains a donor to the Earthshot Prize, but the donations were made through the company, not by bin Sulayem personally.

So there is no wrongdoing linked to Prince William—his charity received company donations, not personal ones, and even if it were personal, it’s unreasonable to expect him to know about private emails between donors and others.

Separately, William and Catherine were reported by Greek media to have spent part of their last vacation on a yacht in Greece, but not on one of their ships.

There's this news easily searchable on Google: Prince William and Kate Middleton on Secret £40 Million Greek Superyacht Vacation
The British press has barely covered the trip.

And this in Hindustan times fir example

Prince William, Kate Middleton sailing around Greece on $450M yacht belonging to Emirati sheikh

International news covered it,but not in UK which is weird. And yes it has been reported recebtly, it's linked to Wills am business, the investigation didn't end yet as far I know but since everything is corrupted there ... 🤫

There is also easily searchable information on Google: Greek media and international outlets reported conflicting stories about Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales (Kate Middleton) on a Greek yacht holiday. Some reports said they were seen off Kefalonia on the £450 million superyacht Opera, owned by Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, but it was later confirmed they were not on Opera. Instead, they were reportedly on the £40 million yacht Almax. Eyewitness accounts have contradicted each other, and to this day, no one knows exactly which yacht they were on, with the palace giving no official confirmation.😘

I love how you’re focused on the semantics of which yacht it was, while completely ignoring the bigger picture. Whether it was the £450 million one or the £40 million one, the fact remains: our future King and Queen are vacationing on the private property of foreign billionaire-royals with bloody money ties. But even that’s just a side-show. The real issue is the business links to the * *file drops involving funding partners who lead to this investigation and is ties shady people like Bill Gates. Focusing on the yacht’s name is just a classic distraction from the actual ethical questions.

The Palace not giving official confirmation is exactly the problem, it's a total lack of transparency. You’re defending people who take five luxury vacations a year on the yachts of corrupted billionaires and do business and enable Epstein circle (including their adorable uncle Andrew) while the UK is in a cost-of-living crisis.

Give William his due, he covered up that luxury holiday remarkably well !
He managed to smuggle out his family onto the luxury yacht with no British media reports

And here on Mumsnet some posters were put through the wringer for daring to suggest they were on a luxury yacht when it was obvious they were

Just on this point, they weren’t holidaying on an Emirati owned yacht, it was a yacht named ‘The Lady Beatrice’ and owned by British financier Peter Dubens.

Surely it’s more problematic that his brother and sister-in-law are named in the Epstein files 😬

HorseyHorseyOnYouGo · 15/02/2026 22:44

More dodgy dealings. It’s a good job William hired that new crisis person, coincidentally of course. 😅

This family gets worse by the day. They’re all into dodgy deals up to their necks.

Meghan and Harry were talked nrvayse an article of them was worth 4m and they were angry /shocked. No association, no tour or emails exchanged, no partying or business together, unlike William and Andrew. But good tactic of distraction, interesting that you would want to make this topic about Harry and Meghan but no word of who William was doing business with and the times he was mentioned like this

Also this article from The times

Jeffrey Epstein associate met Prince William in Buckingham Palace
Explicit emails between Epstein and the businessman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem raise questions about his dealings with the royals and Peter Mandelson

A Dubai billionaire who apparently shared a “torture video” and photos of naked women with Jeffrey Epstein was invited to Buckingham Palace ...

Still on the list though!

Couldn't see William or Catherine listed, maybe I missed it?

IAmATorturedPoet · 16/02/2026 05:38

That said, there were some rather surprising name drops eg. the pope and I believe even Elvis gets a mention! 😁

All very interesting. I was just making the point that if an association with people mentioned in the Epstein files is problematic for William, then probably his close family members are more of an issue than a random Earthshot investor. Also I guess the Sussexes’ reportedly very close relationship with the Yorks over many years might turn out to be tricky for them and the rest of the RF, if you really want to go there.

Why is it a distraction when it is mentioned that Meghan Markle ( no title included) and Prince Harry are named in the Epstein lists? It's surely relevant. Maybe this is how the pair really met? Who knows.... Soho House and all that ..
There are other threads on here about the Sussexes and they have been inundated with people talking about Andrew and the rest of the RF. " same same"

I think they’re all rotten to the core. Time to get rid of the lot of them. None of them are good people. If they’ve not been involved in raping and abusing directly, they’ve paid off victims, been racist, had affairs, hide their tax, do low amounts of work, do dodgy deals, mix with dodgy people, help cover things up, exploit their kids for PR, don’t speak out despite working with charities and people impacted by the behaviours their family displays. They’re morally void while pretending to set some sort of example by doing charity ‘work’.

Ukisgaslit · 16/02/2026 08:38

William was urged to cut ties or at least do something when 900 British workers were sacked without notice and replaced with cheaper staff by DP world 4 years ago

William did nothing.

Now this recent depravity.

William does nothing .
