Newly reviewed emails in the Jeffrey Epstein files show Sarah Ferguson, the former wife of ex-Prince Andrew, using warm and supportive language about the late financier, even after his 2008 conviction. CNN examined dozens of documents from the Justice Department’s “Epstein library.” In doing so, it reports that Ferguson repeatedly praised Epstein in private messages and referred to him as a close friend.
Sarah Ferguson called Jeffrey Epstein a ‘legend’ and ‘special’ friend in emails, files reveal
The latest emails in the Epstein files show the manner in which Sarah Ferguson — ex-Prince Andrew’s ex-wife — talked to Jeffrey Epstein. CNN reported that in one email from 2009, Ferguson addressed him as “My dear spectacular and special friend Jeffrey,” and added, “You are a legend, and I am so proud of you.”
The messages, spanning years, show Ferguson asking Epstein for help as she dealt with money problems and work pressures. In a 2009 note that CNN cited, she wrote, “I urgently need 20,000 pounds for rent today,” adding, “The landlord has threatened to go to the newspapers if I don’t pay. Any brainwaves?”
Moreover, the outlet reported that Ferguson at times suggested Epstein should hire her. In one email, she wrote, “I am the most capable and desperately need the money,” followed by, “Please Jeffrey think about it.”
The emails stand out in part because Ferguson distanced herself from Epstein at one point, at least in public, but then privately walked those comments back — even stating in a 2011 interview with the Evening Standard that she would have “nothing ever to do with Jeffrey Epstein ever again.”
However, she apologized to Epstein in an email the next month, saying, “I must humbly apologise to you and your heart for that.” She added, “You have always been a steadfast, generous and supreme friend to me and my family.”
CNN highlighted that Ferguson has not been accused of crimes related to Epstein, and the fact that a person appears in the files does not suggest wrongdoing. However, the outlet mentioned it reached out to a representative for Ferguson for comment.
