Met Police contacting Andrew's former close protection officers over Epstein probe

"Detectives urged Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's former close protection officers to consider carefully whether anything they saw or heard is relevant to their investigation into paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. It comes as his ex-wife could be forced to speak to police as part of their probes, according to reports. As well as urging ex-bodyguards to come forward, the Metropolitan Police said it was working with counterparts in the US to establish whether London airports had been used to facilitate human trafficking and sexual exploitation."

"On Friday, the force said no new reports of alleged sexual offences have been made since the release of millions of pages of documents related to Epstein by the US Department of Justice. Sarah Ferguson, 66, is said to be in a bad way and feels that everyone is out to get her, friends admitted following Andrew's arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office at Sandringham."

"A source told the Daily Mail: She wants to get out there and start earning money again. I can't see how she's going to do it. Her brand is toxic. Her best hope of a money-spinner is a tell-all book about how her family's friendship with Epstein has destroyed everything and left the monarchy in crisis, but she's ruled that out apparently. Besides she might end up having to tell that story to the police."
