The four things Prince Andrew was doing on the day he sent bombshell Epstein email

Prince Andrew has been back in the headlines this week for all the wrong reasons. Just days ago, it was revealed that the Duke of York, 65, had lied in his 2019 BBC Newsnight interview about when he last made contact with the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

In the 2019 interview, Andrew claimed he stopped contact with Epstein in December 2010. However, it has now been revealed that he had actually emailed him on February 28, 2011.

In the 2011 email, which was sent a day after a photo of Andrew and Virginia Giuffre - who accused the Duke of sexual assault - was shared, Andrew tells Epstein "we are in this together". Andrew has always denied the claims made by Giuffre, who died earlier this year.

The Prince also told Epstein in the email: "I'm just as concerned for you! Don't worry about me! It would seem we are in this together and will have to rise above it."

He had also said "keep in close touch" and "we'll play some more soon!!!!".

While the Prince has not addressed the email, which was sent from his official email account, his message to Epstein was sent on a busy day.

According to the Court Circular from February 28, 2011, the Duke had four different engagements on this day as he was still a working royal at the time.

One engagement saw Andrew hold a Chairman's Meeting for the Patron's Company, followed by a Luncheon.

He then met Mr Marc Bolland - Chief Executive of Marks and Spencer - followed by Mr Antonio Horta-Osorio, Chief Executive designate of Lloyds Bank.

In the evening, he then attended a dinner given by Numis Corporation in the London Stock Exchange Building in London.

Prince Andrew has not commented on this latest scandal.
