Explosive emails claim Sarah Ferguson celebrated Jeffrey Epstein’s prison release with her daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie.

In a bombshell revelation that’s rattling the royal family and igniting global outrage, newly surfaced emails from the late financier Jeffrey Epstein allege that Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, personally celebrated his 2009 prison release—with her two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, in tow.

The claim, made in correspondence from Epstein to his lawyer in 2011, suggests a covert relationship far more intimate than anyone had previously acknowledged.

According to the emails, Epstein wrote that Ferguson “was the first to celebrate my release with her two daughters in tow,” naming her as someone who visited him immediately after his jail term.

Besides this shocking allegation, Epstein purportedly claimed that Ferguson had taken apartments in New York at his behest, enlisted a private policeman at the front desk of his residence, and sought his financial help for her charities.

He even says she requested up to $100,000 to settle her personal debts—far more than the £15,000 she publicly admitted accepting.

The timing is nothing short of explosive. Epstein was convicted in Florida in June 2008 for soliciting prostitution from a minor, served 13 months in a low‑security facility, and was released in mid‑2009.

By March 2011, Ferguson had given a public interview admitting her association with Epstein had been a “gigantic error of judgment” and pledging never to have anything more to do with him.

Yet the email to Epstein dated April 2011 appears to contradict that vow, with Ferguson reportedly writing: “You have always been a steadfast, generous and supreme friend to me and my family.” Within weeks, seven major U.K. charities severed ties with her.

Ferguson’s spokesperson insists the email was sent under legal duress after Epstein threatened her with defamation, and that she was “taken in by his lies” before discovering the full extent of the allegations. But the damage is done.

Her daughters, once shielded from scandal, are now inevitably pulled into the turmoil as the suggestion of their presence at Epstein’s release celebration—or even visit—raises vicious questions about what they may or may not have known.

The fallout has been swift and severe. Charities including Julia’s House, The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation, The Teenage Cancer Trust, and Prevent Breast Cancer have dropped Ferguson as a patron.

One statement cited “disturbing correspondence” with Epstein as the reason for her dismissal. The royal household, still reeling from the scandal involving Ferguson’s former husband Prince Andrew and Epstein, is reportedly braced for further embarrassment.

Legal experts warn the implications could run far deeper than mere reputation damage. If the email’s claims are verified, they may provide fresh insight into Epstein’s network and the extent of the influence his circle wielded.

While the authenticity of the documents has not been independently confirmed, their credibility is bolstered by matching internal Epstein correspondence that has already triggered hearings in the U.S. Congress.

For now, Ferguson remains in a crisis‑management mode—no longer using her Duchess of York title professionally, stepping back from public life, and under intense scrutiny.

Meanwhile, her daughters face questions once reserved for far more prominent heirs: Did they accompany their mother to see Epstein? What did they witness? And so long as questions go unanswered, the queen’s former daughter‑in‑law may find no sanctuary.

The royal family’s saga once again underscores how the Epstein scandal continues to pull in the powerful, the privileged, and the previously untouchable.

In a world where social standing once provided immunity, the allegations against a royal mother and her daughters threaten to upend both charity partnerships and centuries‑old traditions of privilege.

The truth may yet be buried in legal proceedings and redacted records, but the public’s demand for accountability is unmistakably loud.
