The United Kingdom's Prime Minister Keir Starmer called on Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, to comply with U.S. lawmakers if they request he testify about his relationship to convicted sex offender and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
"Anybody who has got information should be prepared to share that information in whatever form they are asked to do that," Starmer told reporters on Jan. 31 while answering questions about Andrew.
"You can’t be victim centered if you’re not prepared to do that," Starmer said.
Andrew has appeared in multiple pages and images within the files the U.S. government has released about Epstein since last fall, including in the latest batch published by the Justice Department on Jan. 30.
Among the 3 million pages of newly released materials are emails that showed King Charles' brother allegedly maintained regular contact with Epstein for more than two years after he was found guilty of child sex crimes. They also include pictures appearing to show Andrew crouching over and touching the waist of an unidentified woman lying on the floor. Her face was blacked out in the redacted images.
Larry SummersSummers, a former Treasury secretary and ex-president of Harvard University, appeared to seek advice from Epstein about a romantic relationship he was interested in initiating with a female economist he described as a "mentee." In an email message on Nov. 20, 2018, the female economist appears to ask Summers about edits on a research paper. Summers forwards the email to Epstein and says, "Think no response for awhile probably appropriate." Epstein responds, "she's already beginning (sic) to sound needy :) nice." Summers' email correspondence lasted from November 2018 through July 5, 2019, according to The Harvard Crimson. The Miami Herald's blockbuster expose on Epstein ran in November 2018. A federal court decision in February 2019 paved the way for federal charges against Epstein, and he was indicted on July 6, 2019. Epstein died by suicide about a month later while awaiting trial.

1 / 8See some of the people named in the Jeffrey Epstein emails
Larry SummersSummers, a former Treasury secretary and ex-president of Harvard University, appeared to seek advice from Epstein about a romantic relationship he was interested in initiating with a female economist he described as a "mentee." In an email message on Nov. 20, 2018, the female economist appears to ask Summers about edits on a research paper. Summers forwards the email to Epstein and says, "Think no response for awhile probably appropriate." Epstein responds, "she's already beginning (sic) to sound needy :) nice." Summers' email correspondence lasted from November 2018 through July 5, 2019, according to The Harvard Crimson. The Miami Herald's blockbuster expose on Epstein ran in November 2018. A federal court decision in February 2019 paved the way for federal charges against Epstein, and he was indicted on July 6, 2019. Epstein died by suicide about a month later while awaiting trial.

Andrew was stripped of his royal title in October 2025 and pushed out of his home at Royal Lodge after reports of his association with Epstein hit a fever pitch. He was ousted as a senior royal three years prior. Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a prominent Epstein accuser, alleged she was sexually abused by the former royal multiple times as a 17 year old.
In 2022, Andrew made an undisclosed payment to settle a lawsuit brought in the United States by Giuffre, who died by suicide in April 2025, months before the publication of her memoir. Andrew, 65, has always denied Giuffre's account.
Prince Andrew arrives to Westminster Cathedral in London on Sept. 16, 2025.
When asked by reporters if the former royal should apologize, multiple media outlets reported Starmer said that's "a matter for Andrew."
It's the second time since November that the prime minister has suggested Andrew testify before Congress. That same month, several U.S. lawmakers intensified their calls for Andrew to appear before a congressional committee investigation into the disgraced financier.
Epstein died by suicide while in custody awaiting trial in 2019. Roberts Giuffre's civil case against Andrew was settled in February 2022 for an undisclosed amount, with the then-prince making a substantial donation to her charity.
