ANDREW Mountbatten-Windsor invited Jeffrey Epstein and a Russian model to dinner at Buckingham Palace on a four-day trip to London.
Emails released as part of the Epstein files last week reveal how the paedo financier hired a 26-year-old woman called Vera to attend a dinner party and took her to the Palace for a private meeting.
She is described as “enchanting” and a “great friend” in the tranche of documents.
Epstein’s London stay took place two months before Andrew repaid the favour and visited the paedophile in New York.
The revelation comes after it was alleged last week that Andrew was targeted by Russia using Epstein’s sex contacts to pull him in.
The woman first appeared in the files when she was invited to a dinner of the then President of South Africa Jacob Zuma at the Ritz London in 2010.
On March 4, Mark Lloyd, a pal of Epstein’s who helped him arrange high-profile meetings, messaged Vera telling her: “Jeffrey suggested I invite you, as you would be certain to add some real glamour.”
She responded, telling Lloyd she was “honoured”, adding: “I am from Russia and I have lived in London for the past two years.
“I am a model, represented by Select model agency.”
She went on to say how she had been modelling for the past six years and lived in Paris, New York, Barcelona and Japan.
The same day, further emails show Epstein bragging to disgraced peer Lord Peter Mandelson, writing: “Mark Lloyd is having dinner for Zuma tonight. I have invited a beautiful Russian.”
Days later, Epstein, who killed himself in 2019 awaiting trial for sex trafficking crimes, received an email from somebody whose name is redacted saying how “charming” Vera “enchanted all those she met”.
Later that year, Epstein wrote to Andrew to introduce him to the same woman. Andrew asked him who she was, and Epstein replied: “A great friend of mine. Very pretty. She is my future ex wife.”
Hours later Andrew moaned to Epstein: “No response from your future ex. I emailed her this morning but I suspect it went into her junk email.”
Epstein joked: “Why? Are you spamming beautiful Russians.”.
He then gave Andrew her details and said she was “expecting his call”.
Three months later, in September 2010, disgraced money man Epstein emailed Andrew to say he would see him “tomorrow night for dinner”.
Andrew replied: “Great! Where do you want to go — private at BP or out in a private room or in a restaurant?”
Epstein emailed somebody that day to brag: “I will be having dinner at Buckingham Palace tomorrow. Want to join?”
Andrew told him the next day: “I am just departing Scotland. Should be down by 1800. We could have dinner at Buckingham Palace and lots of privacy.”
