Prince Andrew ‘terrified’ to return to the US because of Epstein probe

Andrew was not just friends with Epstein; He welcomed the convicted sex offender in the royal family and the holy space of the Royal Box on Ascot on Ladies Day.

Now American legislators want to talk to him as part of their current Epstein research. But the Duke of York, once the nickname “Air Miles Andy” for his jet-set lifestyle, apparently is not a hurry to set foot on American soil.

“America is not safe for him,” an insider in Washington told the Daily mirror. “And with the shadow of Epstein still looming, it might never be again.”

Andrew has confronted years of scandal with his association with Epstein, including allegations by one of the victims of the pedophile, Virginia Giuffre, that he was sexually abused when she was 17. He has repeatedly denied a misconduct and resolved a civil lawsuit that was reported by Giuffre in 2022 for a reported $ 16 -Million without admitted liability.

The insider added: “When Prince Andrew puts foot on American soil again, he will be met with an avalanche of politics, legal and media research. He knows, and Buckingham Palace too.

“The safest option for him is to stay in Britain and hope that the storm will die. But that won’t do it.”
