Andrew was acting as a UK trade envoy during the time
Newly released documents linked to the deceased paedophile Jeffrey Epstein include photographs showing Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor alongside an unidentified woman.
One image, thought to have been taken during an official trade visit to China in 2010, shows Andrew seated next to a Chinese model and actress while serving as the UK’s trade envoy. The woman has since been identified as Miya Muqi.
The photograph, reportedly taken inside a Beijing restaurant, also features two other men at the table. A second image shows Andrew on a boat with another woman, both wearing life jackets across their laps, reports Express.
The photographs are understood to have been forwarded to deceased paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, accompanied by a remark in which Andrew allegedly used a derogatory term to describe the women.
According to The Times, the former Duke wrote: “We have dinner on Sunday in Beijing with this p.”
Andrew, 65, has consistently denied any wrongdoing in relation to his association with the convicted sex offender. The images form part of a tranche of newly released material, including emails, disclosed last month.
Three million pages, 180,000 images and 2,000 videos were posted publicly, including one shocking photo in the latest Epstein files, which shows Andrew, on all fours, kneeling over a woman who is lying on the floor with her arms flat out beside her.
Andrew maintains his position as eighth in line to the throne despite no longer holding his royal titles and honours, of which he was stripped last year by his older brother, King Charles.
He was booted from Royal Lodge earlier this month, though he is currently living on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.
