Another Royal’s Name Has Just Been Tied to Jeffrey Epstein
Just when you thought Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson were the only royals associated with Jeffrey Epstein in the past, another member of a European royal family has been linked to the late convicted sex offender as well.
The latest royal to get caught up in the Epstein scandal is Princess Sofia of Sweden. In leaked emails, the late financier offered Sofia, who worked a a model and reality TV star before marrying Prince Carl Philip of Sweden, an invite to stay at his private island in the Caribbean.
According to the Swedish outlet Dagens Nyheter, they were introduced several times by a Swedish businesswoman and the princess’s mentor.
The woman’s alleged email to Epstein read, “This is Sofia, an aspiring actress who just arrived in New York. She’s the girl I told you about before I left, who I thought you might like to meet. Maybe we can visit before you go on holiday?”
Epstein replied, “I’m in the Caribbean. Does she want to come for a couple of days? I’ll send a ticket.”
Sofia did not accept Epstein’s invitation and therefore is believed to have never set foot on the island.
The German outlet Bild reported that Sofia did end up meeting Epstein after that during one of the dinner parties the mentor allegedly helped to organize at Epstein’s Upper East Side mansion.
In a statement, Sweden’s royal family confirmed that the meetings took place prior to Epstein’s conviction, saying that “Princess Sofia has been introduced to the person in question on a few occasions around 2005” and had no contact with him after those meetings.
