The image is similar to another image from Epstein’s “birthday book” made public last year
A photo showing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein together has been released by the Department of Justice. The image is reportedly the first confirmed photograph showing all three men together, the Express reports, released as part of the newest tranche of Epstein files.
The trio are seen sitting around a wooden table on an outdoor deck, drinking from mugs decorated with the US flag during what looks like a meeting in Martha’s Vineyard. Although the photo has no timestamp, it is similar to another image from Epstein’s “birthday book” made public last year.
That book also showed Mandelson, again wearing a bathrobe, alongside Epstein suggesting it may have been taken around the same period. Inside the book, the former UK ambassador to the US is said to have written a note to Epstein calling him his “best pal”.
The release of these documents has added new detail to the connections both Mandelson and Andrew had with the convicted sex offender. However, Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing.
The Epstein files add more detail about the former Duke of York’s dealings with Epstein, including claims that Andrew’s team sought his help in responding to sexual‑assault allegations made by Virginia Giuffre. This was despite Andrew having said he cut ties with Epstein more than four years earlier.
Emails from 2010 to 2018 also appear to show that Andrew was exploring a potential business partnership with Epstein during his time serving as the UK’s trade envoy.
Being named or pictured in the Epstein files is not an indication of wrongdoing.
