The royal establishment and the royal-commentator industry moves back and forth on “the Sussex drama” and “the Prince Andrew drama.” One day, those commentators want to pair the Sussexes with Prince Andrew, like they’re all equally scandalous, equally controversial, equally disappointing to the Queen. The next day, they forget all about the Queen’s blatant efforts to protect and shield Andrew and they make it all about how Meghan and Harry are simply the worst. The fact that we have such a stark contrast – in the same timeline – between how these two storylines are handled is a remarkable thing. One royal figure was bullied, smeared and faced an endless barrage of racist harassmen. She was then punished by being stripped of her “royal” status after she dared to push back. The other royal figure raped a trafficked teenager, refuses to even submit to an FBI interview about his criminal behavior, and still holds and uses his HRH and his royal status. He still lives in his giant royal mansion, and attends church with the Queen. As I said, the contrast is stark. God bless Gloria Allred for continuing to remind everyone of Prince Andrew’s criminal acts:
This weekend, Londoners may have spotted Prince Andrew’s face plastered on the side of an American-styled yellow school bus circling Buckingham Palace. “If you see this man,” the bus’s sign stated, “please ask him to call the FBI to answer their questions.” The message included a number to the FBI’s national press office, as well as the address to U.S. lawyer Gloria Allred’s website. Allred, who represents several victims of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, tells HarpersBAZAAR.com in a statement why she organized the blunt advertisement.
“I have been urging him to speak with the FBI re Jeffrey Epstein on radio and television and by sending a letter to his home in Dec. 2019. I represent 5 victims of Jeffrey Epstein and I have filed 3 lawsuits in New York on behalf of 3 of his victims whom he sexually abused when they were underage,” Allred says. “He did not respond to my letter and as far as I know he did not respond to the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York who held a press conference recently and also urged Prince Andrew to speak with the FBI.”
In her statement to BAZAAR.com, Allred continues, “I believe that victims have been denied justice in the case of Jeffrey Epstein. At the very least they deserve the truth. Prince Andrew could and should provide what he knows to the FBI, because they are still conducting an investigation into who may have conspired with Jeffrey Epstein to sex traffic underage girls to him.”
This just reminded me of the fact that the day after Jeffrey Epstein’s mysterious death in a New York prison, Prince Andrew and the Queen were all smiles as they rode to church together (see photo below). I still feel like… there should absolutely be more conspiracy theories about this, especially in regards to Andrew and the Queen’s involvement. Anyway… yes, it should be a blaring headline in all of the British papers that Andrew is still hiding from the FBI after repeatedly promising that he would cooperate with authorities. I wonder why it’s not a headline. Oh right. Because Meghan.

That picture with Andrew and the Queen is the worst. I feel like that’s going to be one of those images that tells the story of the end of her reign, because I also feel like we are going to hear a lot more about Andrew and Epstein (and other gross men like him), especially after the Queen dies. I don’t think BP was prepared for the interview at all, and I also don’t think they are equipped to handle social media in general.
I agree with you 100%. That photo is a turning point.
Agree 1000%. I hope the gloves come off and he’s thrown overboard once the Queen dies. Hopefully he takes the ship down with him.
Like you @becks1, I really am hoping that this is the image that brings down the monarchy and every racist, sexist pig that serves it. It is actually making me rage that Prince Pedo is not being hounded more. My empathy for these victims has quadrupled every time he shows his self entitled, dorky face.
I AGREE WITH YOU 100 PERCENT
@Becks, looking at that picture, I feel like we are getting a real look into the Queen’s priorities. For all the articles about how she heartbroken about the Sussex withdrawal and how she doesn’t want to talk about it, this image depicts her as she really is, not as the UK tabloid media want to portray her.
@becks- I agree. And considering how rarely she smiles that sh!t-eating grin is particularly disturbing..
With my tin foil hat pulled tightly over my head, I could totally buy that there was some kind of royal British part in the Jeffrey Epstein death.
Gloria is so gauche. Doesn’t she know that it’s against protocol for a blood Prince to talk to law enforcement?
The nerve of her indeed! Really!!
I hope she keeps it up for as long as it takes.
It says something that the press (and Gloria for that matter) focusses on Andrew of all people. He seems to be the one they fear the least. That tells me a lot about who else hung out with Epstein.
😂😂😂😂
How dare she even ask!!!! So peasanty, it just isn’t done!!
I get Apple news, and apparently one of the Oxenberg sisters is turning on Ghislaine Maxwell in Tattler. Something about how Andrew was taken advantage of (Catherine and Christina Oxenberg are cousins of Charles, Andrew, Ann and Edward), but that Maxwell bragged to her personally about she and Epstein having tapes of men. You know that Maxwell has tapes of Andrew.
Christina is telling the BP that she wants to talk to the FBI. I hope that she does and that it moves this stuff further. Andrews belongs in jail. There are things the queen can do to protect him legally, but he should be shunned by British society. Maybe Oxenberg talking to the FBI will help drag Maxwell into custody. The powerful men filmed are protecting her evil ass. She will probably end up dead before that happens.
I hope that there is some way that Epstein’s estate can go to his victims. They deserve that and justice.
“Something about how Andrew was taken advantage of (Catherine and Christina Oxenberg are cousins of Charles, Andrew, Ann and Edward), but that Maxwell bragged to her personally about she and Epstein having tapes of men. You know that Maxwell has tapes of Andrew.”
Dear Lord. The poor imbecile, they somehow tricked him into sleeping with underage girls!! I bet he was roofied. Maybe heathen magic. His sheltered Anglican upbringing couldn’t possibly have prepared him for these vultures.
*bangs head on desk*
That should be interesting!
Ghislaine Maxwell has all of the receipts. She is either dead already, or in deep hiding.
There are a lot of powerful MEN who don’t want her speaking.
Given what happened to Catherine Oxenberg’s daughter with that Nxivm mess, it’s a good bet that family isn’t having it with creeps who exploit young girls.
Allred has many detractors and I understand why. That said, she is the pain in the ass needed for this type of situation because Andy will never go to law enforcement. This will have to be played out in the media to embarrass him non stop as well as the rest of the enablers.
“It should be a blaring headline in all of the British papers that Andrew is still hiding from the FBI after repeatedly promising that he would cooperate with authorities.”
I won’t read the DM or Sun so maybe it’s not been covered there, but it’s certainly been a headline in the Guardian and other papers. Maybe not the top headline, but the royal family aren’t as big of a deal in the UK as you might think from reading this site.
I do take issue with the ‘all British media’ blanket term used by some when (understandably) criticising the tabloid press. Thinking a story from the DM is representative of general feeling in the UK is like… taking Fox News as representative of all Americans
Lady Baden-Baden, point taken. There’s the real BP and the gossip Fox-like stuff. Tattler is a rag just like the Daily Mail, but for rich people. And you all have other things to worry about just like Americans do, but many of us don’t pay attention to the real news. At the same time, international trafficking of girls for sex is real news that should be discussed in mainstream news media.
So many commenters in the NYTimes articles about Weinstein and the Canadian Peter Nygard hate that focus and said that the stories belong in the Enquirer, America’s Daily Mail. Discounting the stories of sexual assault victims is how our children become victims of abuse. It’s a big reason why women and children aren’t believed. You aren’t saying that, and your here, so I’m not saying that you do that.
Thanks Christina – and I’m certainly not saying we should ignore the stories of sexual assault victims (which includes me, if that matters!). My point is that plenty of other outlets outside the DM and Sun ARE talking about it.
Actually, my complaint about using the DM or the Sun for stories and the blanket ‘British media’ used by commenters doesn’t really belong on this story. More relevant to other royal coverage on this site – but I don’t tend go near other royal stories. The comment sections get crazy!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, The silence of the Royal Family will be their downfall. The silence after Diana’s death, the silence during the blatantly racist reporting on Meghan and the silence surrounding Andrew’s actions (including how he funds his extravagant lifestyle), people are seeing this silence, they can’t unsee it and are starting to question the relevance, necessity and morals of this family.
@Kaiser keep using HRH on any post about this predator prince, please. I love and thank you for doing that.
Agree. We go with Petty Betty and HRH Royal alleged Pedo Andrew. If they can stick Meghxit on Meghan we can certainly stick the above names for the gruesome twosome.
I love Michelle Obama but sometimes when they go low there is immense satisfaction in going Lower!!!!!!!
hes getting nervous he will be next.
Gloria Allred is my true (unpetty) Queen.
Anyone else think that Ghislane Maxwell has been silenced permanently??
I think it’s pretty likely. To say the least.
I wonder who’s got the tapes!
well, i’ve heard, probably from someone that watches lots of movies that she may have an insurance policy…
for instance, if she is found dead under suspicious circumstances, someone will be sending all the tapes straight to the fbi.
i dont know which kind of justice i would prefer.
Why is the picture of HR and Favored Son grinning so creepy? Aside from his best friend killing himself and barely stiff and here are mother and son being chauffered to church while press out? And it came to me, the sweet elderly couple Naomi Watts’ character meets at the start of Blue Velvet but by movie’s end, they are the nightmarish grinning couple tormenting down and out Naomi Watts. Shudder!
Years and years ago Ted Casablanca alluded to Prince Andrew’s unsavory personal life. It was a tidbit in length. But in these upside down times MM is the villain with her social climbing, grifting, merching, leading pussy whipped Dim Harry, made Kate cry, ravenous attempt at emerald tiara, straight out Compton tabloid narrative. Smh.
The pic of Queenie and Andy the PEDO make me want to VOMIT time to get rid of THEM after all we are in 2020
Correction!!! I mentioned Blue Velvet in my comment, wrong! It is Mulholland Drive, the coffee is taking effect. The shame!
Outcry from the British people galvanized the queen into action after Diana’s death. (ie. “Show Us You Care!”)
So why aren’t Brits absolutely SCREAMING about the queen remaining silent as she continues to protect the Duke of Disgusting?!
And why aren’t the British OUTSPOKENLY FURIOUS that they are required to pay Pedophile Support through mandatory taxes?!
At worst, Meghan’s a social climber. That’s a FAR cry from raping children, and then living off the public dime while dodging the legal and moral accountability nobody else could avoid.
They need to put “Charles in charge” immediately.
Rightly or wrongly, I think Harry Dunn’s murder by a the wife of a US diplomat plays into this. She has been evading UK justice and the US government has been protecting her. https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/20/uk/anne-sacoolas-charged-harry-dunn-intl-gbr/index.html
