Prince Andrew’s friends claim pictures of the royal with Jeffrey Epstein and one of his alleged victims are “staged” and “doctored”.
The Duke of York’s inner circle had forensic experts examine pictures of him with the convicted paedo and Virginia Roberts Giuffre, it has been claimed.
Andrew is believed to have recruited a team to check the authenticity of two photographs that have placed him in the middle of the sordid scandal, The Times reports.
The Prince has said he never took part in, witnessed or suspected any suspicious or unlawful behaviour during his friendship with Epstein.
The first picture examined shows the Duke ambling through Central Park with the filthy financier in 2010 — two years after Epstein admitted to prostituting girls as young as 14.
A second picture shows him at Epstein’s former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell’s London home in 2001.
In the picture Andrew has his hands around the waist of Virginia Roberts Guiffre, who was 17 at the time and claims to have been used as Epstein’s sex slave.
The Duke’s lawyers have already questioned the authenticity of the picture, with sources claiming Andrew’s fingers look “too chubby”.
...
Prince Andrew has always denied any allegations of wrongdoing. “Any suggestion of impropriety with underage minors is categorically untrue,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement earlier this year.
“It is emphatically denied that the Duke of York had any form of sexual contact with Virginia Roberts. Any claim to the contrary is false and without foundation.”
Prince Andrew said of Epstein, “At no stage during the limited time I spent with him did I see, witness or suspect any behaviour of the sort that subsequently led to his arrest and conviction.”

I wonder what has become of all the videotape evidence of the activities of Epstein and his friends which no doubt exists. Will it ever see the light of day? If Andrew appears in any of it, I guess we will be told that was faked too.
Easy to check dates of the events. But then again, if they ate real that would make things worse. Let’s see if he can produce evidence to refute the authenticity of the photos.
This degenerate’s only friends are aides and lawyers...?
Google ‘deepfakes’. They’re already setting us up to claim it’s all fake...we can’t believe what our eyes see.
Yup. This gambit has been in the works for quite a while. “You can’t believe what you see”.
Very convenient.
Waiting for BillyBob and/or ILLary to make the same claims.
“I didn’t do it; I didn’t mean to do it; Epstein put me up to it; and, oh, I’m now convinced that the pictures are fakes.”
Official Friend of Prince Andrew, must be either a public relations expert or lawyer.
Please post your CV to Ghislaine Maxwell.
OTOH,I do care...a lot...about BillyBob and ILLary and can't wait to hear them explain the flight logs that show him on the Lolita Express a couple of dozen times.
If the pictures are false, they ought to have been vigorously disputed when they first appeared months ago. Instead, the whole business has been badly handled. Andrew has never been implicated as having smarts, but his handlers in “the Firm” ought to know better. Even now, if Andrew is telling the truth, the records of his travel and security detail and their personal testimony could be shared with a friendly reporter for a definitive refutation. Instead, the episode is treated as some sort of passing controversy instead of the severe threat that it is.
This is the whole reason I believe our media has become so fake. Now, anyone can claim any evidence of a crime or wrongdoing is fake.
Who knows if it exists anymore.
I think there has already been some credible matching up of Andrew’s locations with those of Virginia Roberts in her court case.
Hillary already started when she mentioned fake videos of her flashing around on the dark web.
When all else fails claim the pictures are fake.
Yet what did Andrew the Dolt actually know and see and do? The Palace — meaning the Queen — is said to get regular reports and to call in errant Royals for a handbagging and threats of cuts in their allowance and travel privileges. If Andrew is innocent of wrongdoing, the Palace needs to get ahead of the story by putting exculpatory facts on record. If not, then they need to prepare against civil and criminal claims in the US courts.
Andrew is supposedly the Queen’s favorite child, so she has a serious blind spot when it comes to him. She also has a long history of ignoring problems and hoping they will go away on their own until a situation blows up right in her face.
For all her reputation as Queen Fierce head of the Firm, I have come to believe that the real force for keeping the family in line all these years was Prince Philip. He has been retired for a few years now, and it shows. The Firm seems to have no strong leadership and direction at this time.
This whole thing is an obvious distraction. They need to write about some of Epstein’s connections or it would be too obvious that they are covering for his former buddies.
And so we get all these stories about Prince Andrew rather than stories about the many people with real power and influence in the world who used to enjoy Epstein’s hospitality...
I'm curious about the "sleeping guards".
Are they comfortably relaxing on a beach sipping drinks with little umbrellas - OR - are they room temperature?
