New evidence from one of Prince Andrew's accusers is due to be presented in a US court this week.
The legal documents relate to Johanna Sjoberg and could reveal more details of her alleged encounter with the royal.
Ms Sjoberg has previously claimed the King's brother put his hand on her breast at the Manhattan home of multi-millionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein in 2001.
She alleged this happened during an incident in which a latex Spitting Image puppet of the Duke of York – a present from Epstein's then-lover Ghislaine Maxwell – was used to touch the breast of Virginia Roberts.
Ms Roberts, who now uses her married name Giuffre, claimed that afterwards she and Andrew slept together at Epstein's house.
The duke paid a reported £12million settlement to Ms Roberts in 2022 over her claims that he sexually assaulted her when she was 17, which he has always denied.
During his notorious Newsnight interview in 2019 he said he had no recollection of ever meeting Ms Roberts. The new material is part of hundreds of files from more than 170 people who were associates, friends or victims of Epstein which New York Judge Loretta Preska ruled should be made public.
Ms Roberts' lawyer Sigrid McCawley calls the new material 'disturbing testimony corroborating what lies at the core of this case – Maxwell was involved in facilitating the sexual abuse of young girls with Jeffrey Epstein'.
The files were part of a 2015 US defamation case by Ms Roberts against Maxwell, the British socialite who supplied Epstein with underage girls.

He touched a 17 year old persons boob? I only scanned the article but is there more to it than that ?
I think we’re about to find out what, “If Trump wins, we’re all gonna hang” means.
Judge trolling for a bribe.
When is the list coming out? Exactly? I can’t find it anywhere.
