Was Prince Andrew a gateway for Jeffery Epstein to get to the Queen? While the idea sounds more like an extravagant Hollywood film, Sarah Ferguson’s ex-lover has made that allegation during tell-all interview.
Speaking with The Sun, John Bryan claimed that Epstein planned on blackmailing Queen Elizabeth II in exchange for his silence regarding allegations involving Prince Andrew.

John claimed he was secretly called in to advise the disgraced Prince ten days after the interview. Sarah was allegedly “desperate” for help, meanwhile Andrew was “distraught” and shouting: “I don’t care anymore, I don’t care. I am being treated unfairly.”
Prince Andrew denied the underage sexual assault allegations made by Virginia Giuffre.
According to John, Epstein established his career by blackmailing rich men into giving him money in exchange for silence. But his ultimate “mark” was the Queen.

“People always ask how Epstein made his money. He was supposed to be this tax wizard. But it was all a con.
“He blackmailed rich men and then made them pay to avoid scandal. He made hundreds of millions of dollars this way.
“Epstein tried to lure Andrew into his web, but I believe his ultimate mark was the Queen.”
However, John said Epstein’s plan failed as Andrew never gave the convicted pedophile the “ammunition”.
He continued to state his belief that Prince Andrew is innocent: “If he genuinely was involved in ‘orgies’ as has been alleged, then Epstein would have used that to try and bribe the Queen into paying out millions to protect her family,” John said.
“Andrew has never had any money. The Queen was the one with money.
“I truly believe Epstein was going after her but Andrew never gave him the ammunition to do so.”
Despite this, Prince Andrew was stripped of his royal titles and military affiliations in January 2022. But The Mail revealed he believed he could be “rehabilitated and play a role in The Firm going forward” according to a source.
King Charles has quickly shut down his brother’s hopes by ensuring Andrew — who reportedly felt “blindsided” — and Prince Harry could never deputise him for any reason.
