Khaberni - The notorious financier Jeffrey Epstein planned a huge deal in 2013, which was supposed to provide the brother of the British monarch, former Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, a sum of approximately 1.1 million euros as an upfront payment.
This was reported by the British newspaper "The Telegraph," citing documents published by the U.S. Department of Justice.
According to the newspaper, "Jeffrey Epstein was expected to secure one million pounds (approximately 1.14 million euros) in cash for the benefit of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor as part of a lucrative business deal with a major American investment company."
The newspaper explained that the deal likely included Epstein's mediation with Cantor Fitzgerald in agreement with David Stern, the then-director of "Pitch@Palace" which was founded by Prince Andrew, where it was planned for Andrew to receive 40% of future profits.
According to the newspaper, Epstein's goal was to attract clients by leveraging Andrew's status as a member of the royal family. According to the plan, Andrew was to receive a commission of 50% on each customer.
Although negotiations around the deal failed, the details have the potential to "raise new questions" about Andrew's business relations with Epstein, according to the newspaper.
The "Telegraph" mentioned that discussion of the deal occurred about three years after Andrew announced he had severed ties with Epstein.
Previously, "Sky News" reported that British authorities would consider the possibility of passing a law to exclude Andrew Mountbatten Windsor from the line of succession to the throne.
Prince Andrew was the focus of a scandal for many years due to his relationship with Epstein. In early December 2025, King Charles III stripped him of all his titles.
On Thursday, police arrested the former Prince Andrew in connection with his relationship case with Epstein, and then he was released on bail pending investigation.
