In his seismic interview with Tom Bradby of ITV news, Prince Harry became the first royal to publicly address Prince Andrew’s link to Jeffrey Epstein. He even referenced it in his book, Spare, and called it a “shameful scandal.”
As many royal fans know by now, Prince Andrew had settled Virginia Guiffre’s lawsuit last year, but accepted no liability. Virginia claimed that she was sex trafficked by the late financier Jeffrey Epstein and as a result, was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew.
In his book, Harry mentions that Meghan Markle was concerned about the royal family cutting off their protection after they stepped down as full-time working members of the royal family. Harry says he didn’t think it would happen, seeing how his uncle Prince Andrew still gets protection on his end.
Harry recalled telling his wife, “Not in this climate of hate. And not after what happened to my mother. Also, not in the wake of my Uncle Andrew. Despite being embroiled in a shameful scandal, accused of sexually assaulting a young girl, no one had even suggested removing his security. People have had plenty of reasons to complain about us, sex crimes weren’t one of them.”
If that weren’t enough, Harry also says that his family helped drive Meghan out of the UK. He branded them “abusers” who planted stories to rehabilitate their own reputations. So far Buckingham Palace has not made any comments about the ordeal.
