King Charles has spoken of his 'profound concern' regarding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.

The full statement from Buckingham Palace reads: "The King has made clear through words and through unprecedented actions his profound concern at allegations which continue to come to light in respect to Mr Mountbatten-Windsor’s conduct.

"While the specific claims are for Mr Mountbatten-Windsor to address, if we are approached by Thames Valley Police, we stand ready to support them as you would expect.

"As we previously stated, Their Majesties' thoughts and sympathies have been and remain with the victims of any and all forms of abuse."

A spokesperson said: "I can confirm The Prince and Princess have been deeply concerned by the continuing revelations.

"Their thoughts remain focused on the victims."

The Epstein files detailed previously classified information regarding the former Prince Andrew's relationship with Epstein, a convicted sex offender.

One new allegation is that the former financier sent a woman to the UK to have a sexual encounter with Andrew, while another claims Andrew and Epstein requested an exotic dancer have a threesome with them in Epstein’s Florida home.

Virginia Giuffre also alleged in her memoir that she was made to have sex with Andrew on three separate occasions. The former member of the Royal Family has long denied any wrongdoing.

It's important to note being named or pictured in the Epstein files does not necessarily indicate any wrongdoing.

A photo of Andrew with his arm around the waist of Giuffre (17 at the time) at Ghislaine Maxwell’s London home was doctored, the former prince has previously maintained.

However, Maxwell seemingly suggested it was real in the latest batch of Epstein files to be released.

In a statement drafted to Epstein, her former lover, she wrote: "In 2001 I was in London when [redacted] met a number of friends of mine including Prince Andrew. A photograph was taken as I imagine she wanted to show it to friends and family. I never asked [redacted] to give him a massage."

She continued: "Prince Andrew came to my house to visit me – [redacted] was in the house and they did meet."

The 64-year-old went on to say she had 'no knowledge' of Giuffre 'having sexual activity' with Andrew.

She is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence on child sex trafficking offences.

Thames Valley Police are currently assessing allegations Andrew shared confidential reports from his role as a trade envoy to Epstein.
