King Charles is set to lose one of the strings to his estimated £240million bow as he is reportedly selling off his Welsh home in a bid to downsize his property portfolio. The former Prince of Wales bought the cottage which sits on the 192-acre Llwynwermod estate in Llandovery in Carmarthenshire for £1.2million in 2007. Since then, it has acted as his base when visiting Wales.
Mr Epstein touts the Duke as a potential investor, even though Andrew told Emily Maitlis in his 2019 Newsnight interview that he had cut all ties with the paedophile in 2010. This comes as Andrew was spotted earlier today out horse riding near his home in Windsor.
So far the prince has refused to speak to the FBI about their investigation, in spite of insistence that he do so. It is not known if Andrew knew that Mr. Epstein was suggesting him as an investor in these emails.
US attorney Spencer Kuvin, who represents Epstein victims, told the Mirror: "It appears that either Epstein was highly overselling his relationship with Prince Andrew or that the Duke may not have been entirely truthful about when his friendship ended." One of Epstein's victims, who in 2021 was compensated by the Epstein Victims' Compensation Program, added: "The emails raise serious questions. Why would Jeffrey be lauding him as an investor if he was no longer in contact?"
