The Royal Family has been warned that Prince Andrew could “ruin” their Christmas celebrations this year, as a new revelation in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal is set to be unveiled.
The names of more than 150 people associated with Jeffrey Epstein could be revealed, after a New York judge ordered a new batch of lawsuit documents in the case against Ghislaine Maxwell.
Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison earlier this year, for assisting Jeffrey Epstein in sexually abusing young girls between 1994 and 2004.
Virginia Giuffre, one of the survivors of abuse, had accused Prince Andrew of sexually assaulting her on three occasions when she was 17.

In February 2022, and out-of-court settlement was agreed between the royal and Giuffre.
Prince Andrew was pressured to step down as a working royal in 2019 due to his affiliations with Epstein. The Duke was stripped of his military titles, royal patronages and suffix of His Royal Highness.
Reacting to the release of the names, set to go ahead in the new year, royal biographer Angela Levin said there will be “a lot of people who are not going to enjoy this Christmas”.
Levin added that the document release will be a “huge revelation” for all involved, particularly if Prince Andrew’s name is among the 170 people.
Levin told GB News: “It’s coming out right at the beginning of January and it’s anyone who’s had anything to do with him, and it will be a huge revelation.
“Apparently some of the names are extremely well known and will shock us all, but we know that one of the names is of course Prince Andrew, and it’s going to ruin his Christmas and maybe the whole Royal Family’s.
“I mean, he paid out £12million to Virginia Giuffre, saying that he’d never met her and hoped that it would all go away. But we know it hasn’t gone away at all.
“She’s been determined to get more people to be accused when they have behaved so badly.”

Discussing the plans for the Royal Family this Christmas, Levin revealed that Prince Andrew “has been invited” to join his family in the Sandringham estate.
Levin detailed: “Prince Andrew has been trying lately to get back and to do something for the family, and King Charles has been very firm and said absolutely not, and I think he must be quite relieved about that.
“He’s been invited for lunch. He was invited last year at Sandringham for Christmas lunch, but I don’t think we’ll see him go to church with everyone when they’re outside, people could start shouting and all those things.
“I think he will keep very hidden and quite right too. And it’s quite interesting because if you look that amount of money that he spent, absolutely saying he didn’t know her and not saying he was guilty in any way, these things don’t work necessarily. They bounce back and back again and again and again.”
