Jeffrey Epstein Privately Claimed He Met Trump and Prince Andrew in London in 2019: Documents Reveal New Twist
In a startling turn of events, newly-released documents from the House Oversight Committee suggest that Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier, privately claimed to have met with then-President Donald Trump and Prince Andrew in London during 2019. The revelation comes as part of a cache exceeding 20,000 pages of correspondence, notes, and emails, deepening the intrigue surrounding the web of connections among Epstein, global power brokers, and members of the British royal family.
Who, What, and When
The alleged meeting reportedly took place during Trump’s June 2019 state visit to the United Kingdom, which saw the U.S. president engaged with senior royals at venues including Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle. At the time, public scrutiny was already growing on Prince Andrew’s links to Epstein, with fresh allegations surfacing about Andrew’s continued communication with Epstein after his first conviction and jail sentence in 2008.
According to internal emails released by the House Oversight Committee, Epstein wrote to an unnamed associate: “Had discussions with Donald [Trump] and Andrew in London — very productive for ‘A,’ and possibly for my ongoing situation.” The context and exact content of their conversation remain unclear, but forensic analysts and lawmakers suggest Epstein may have been leveraging these meetings in negotiations with other associates or as a form of self-protection.
The Wider Context
This revelation lands amid parallel scandals. Prince Andrew was recently stripped of his royal titles and forced to vacate his official residence over continued fallout from his relationship with Epstein. Donald Trump’s link to Epstein has been a recurrent topic; the two were photographed together on numerous occasions before their relationship reportedly soured in the early 2000s. Trump declared in 2019, “I knew him like everyone in Palm Beach knew him… I had a falling out with him 15 years ago. I haven’t spoken to him in 15 years. I was not a fan”.However, these new records—which include both private notes and email transcripts—raise further questions about whether communication or meetings occurred more recently than previously admitted. Notably, Trump supporters and critics alike have called for a full government release of all Epstein-related files.Direct Quotes and ReactionsHouse Oversight Committee chair Rep. Carolyn Maloney commented: “
These documents shed new light on the tight circles of influence that enabled Epstein’s crimes. We are especially concerned about suggestions that world leaders were drawn into these webs of association”.A spokesperson for Prince Andrew, as quoted in Sky News, stated, “The Duke rigorously denies all suggestion of wrongdoing and any allegation that there were secret meetings of this nature”.
The White House, when pressed about the news, repeated Trump’s longstanding position: “President Trump has had no substantive contact with Jeffrey Epstein for more than a decade, and any assertions to the contrary are patently false”.
The Real-Life Impact
The news has reignited public demands for transparency regarding Epstein’s relationships with world leaders. Protests against Trump’s UK visits in 2019 drew crowds in the hundreds of thousands, many explicitly referencing the Epstein scandal through banners, digital projections on Windsor Castle, and images near embassies.
Legal experts warn these new claims could fuel further legal exposure for associates of Epstein still under investigation and ramp up pressure for more comprehensive disclosures from both UK and US authorities.
What’s Next?
With investigative bodies on both sides of the Atlantic digging into the new tranche of documents, the next phase is likely to involve subpoenas for testimony from former staff, secret service personnel, and possibly Prince Andrew himself. The Oversight Committee has stated its intent to hold additional hearings to clarify the full extent of Epstein’s contacts and their implications for public trust.As for the central question—did Trump, Andrew, and Epstein truly meet in 2019, and if so, why?—the coming weeks may finally bring answers. In the meantime, reputations and royal titles remain on a knife edge as the world watches for the next revelation in the Epstein saga.
