Andrew and Woody Allen on Epstein’s guest list for ‘very last-minute casual dinner’

Deputy AG announces release of millions of Epstein files documents

An email from publicist Peggy Siegal, released as part of the “Epstein Files”, revealed the guest list for a dinner for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor at Jeffrey Epstein's New York home in December 2010.
The guest list for the “very last-minute casual dinner” included Andrew, Woody Allen and Soon-Yi, Katie Couric, and Jeffrey Epstein.
The email indicated that Andrew was staying at Epstein's residence, which was described as “one of the largest single dwellings in New York”; this contrasts with Andrew's 2019 statement that he visited New York to end his friendship with Epstein and had no further contact with him afterwards.
Ms Siegal invited George Stephanopoulos, suggesting he would have “private time with Andrew” due to his stay at the house, though Stephanopoulos declined.
More than three million documents have been published by the US Department of Justice on Friday relating to disgraced paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.
