Britain’s former prince Andrew was again engulfed by the Epstein scandal on Saturday, after newly released files included photographs of him kneeling on all fours over a woman lying on the floor.

The images were among millions of new documents disclosed Friday by the US Justice Department from the Jeffrey Epstein files, which also featured the late sex offender proposing in 2010 that the then prince meet a Russian woman.

That was two years after the disgraced US financier had pleaded guilty in Florida to soliciting a minor for prostitution.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, as the ex-prince he is now known, has long been dogged by his links to Epstein, who died in 2019 by suicide in jail as he awaited trial for sex crimes against minors.

The 65-year-old Briton has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing, but stepped back from royal duties that year over their links.
