Disgraced former Prince Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor after being stripped of his royal titles over his links to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, has been pictured crouching over a woman lying on the floor in newly released Epstein-related documents.

In one of the images, Queen Elizabeth II’s third child is shown on all fours over a woman — whose face has been redacted — as she lies on her back with her arms outstretched on a white striped carpet. Andrew appears to be leaning over her while looking directly at the camera.

Two other photographs show the 65-year-old, dressed in a white polo shirt and jeans, touching the unidentified woman’s stomach. The woman appears to be conscious, with one image showing her arm raised.

The photographs quickly circulated online, prompting commentary from users. One person wrote, “Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor appears to be crouching over a redacted woman in photos from DOJ’s latest Epstein files dump.”

Andrew lost his royal titles and honours last year following allegations that he was among Epstein’s clients. Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s victims who died by suicide in April, alleged in her posthumously published memoir Nobody’s Girl that the paedophile financier forced her to have sex with Andrew on three occasions, including when she was 17.

Newly released email records from the same tranche of Epstein files also indicate that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor invited Epstein to Buckingham Palace in 2010. The invitation was sent two months after Epstein was released from house arrest linked to a prostitution racket.

The documents further show that Epstein sought to arrange a meeting between Andrew and a 26-year-old Russian woman. In an email dated August 11, 2010, Epstein told Andrew he had a friend named “Irina” who would be in London between August 20 and 24, describing her as “26, Russian, clever, beautiful, trustworthy”.

Andrew responded that he would be “delighted to see her” and asked Epstein to share his contact details with her. He also queried, “Will she be bringing a message from you?”

The records were released by the US Department of Justice as part of the Epstein files disclosure. The latest batch includes more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, and was made public six weeks after a legal deadline set under legislation signed by President Donald Trump. Officials said the delay was due to efforts to protect victims’ identities., sex trafficking
