The Andrew formally known as Prince in jep?

Yes, Modern Royals - leeches.

The Thai girls were most likely modern day sex slaves with zero independence or agency. They were mostly likely used to being abused. I can't see how they would have the means to share their stories when their experience with Andrew was most likely a daily occurrence for them.

Note that most of Epstein's girls were preyed upon by Gislane Maxwell because of poor socioeconomic status or coming from broken or abused homes. They knew exactly what they were at and that the women they were abusing were not likely to call them out.

You need evidence is the problem or it's her word against his. At this stage unless there's video or photographs it's just not going to happen.

Judging by the way they celebrate the Bloody Sunday, Ballymurphy massacre murderers, etc, probably not

I think the minute he got his mother to pay out millions he admitted his guilt. What a revolting excuse of a man.

They had a fly-on-the-wall show inside Buckingham Palace way back showing the RF going about their daily business.

Could you imagine if they did it again this last few years, with all the drama that has taken place. It would be better than any soap or reality show.

It would make The Osbournes look tame by comparison.

Why pay such a large settlement then if theres nothing to it?

The “reason” was to make it go away given the Queens 70th.

Personally I’d have preferred to see it play out in the courts but- given it was down to a she said/he said argument and taking into account the picture (photo) and the flights log- and it was an American court - I think the outcome would have been 50:50 at best

- hence the settlement- the amount involved was simply a reflection on how wealthy they were (The RF) and how much they wanted “done” with the legalities - telling that Virginia had agreed to a 1 year gag order- so that no news broke throughout the queens 70th - after that she was free to do and say what she wanted - that must have cost the RF a pretty penny - so 12 million for a temporary stay on the inevitable

While Andy didn’t have to admit fault per se, he did have to state in a statement something about victims of sexual abuse - on balance of probabilities at least, he was pretty much “responsible” for this - but it’s shaded in nuance - Did he have sex with Virginia Guiffre ?
It’s a civil case so make your own mind up but the evidence is strong that he did.

What are the chances of a “Fergie” tell -all book? Does she have something to lose?
Yep- her daughters support would be my guess- I don’t see it happening

“Because an unleashed Fergie could wreak carnage on the Royals. The terrifying truth is that she could choose to write another memoir, this time revealing everything and she would be paid millions for it.After all she has had a front-row seat at the Royal family circus for decades. A bestie of Princess Diana, a confidante during the torture of Diana’s divorce. Oh the secrets she must hold that could be divulged in another Oprah interview.A multi-million-pound Fergie Netflix show about the horrid Royals could make Harry & Meghan’s devastating six-part series, the highest rated show for the streamer in 2022, look like a walk in the park on a sunny day.I fear the King’s very public humiliation of Fergie could come back to haunt Charles.As much as it may choke him to provide her with the millions she expects and the home she feels is her due, it might be the only way to keep her silence.The only way to save the monarchy from another full-frontal, tell-all assault.“

in quite an emotionally charged post

Calm down lad.

You are deflecting.

You admire the Royal Family for whatever reason so you are upset others don't.

It's why you say things like you are on the fence over the allegations against the nonce.

Maybe you need to take your own advice.

What was the phrase you used, "emotionally charged"?

Indeed.

1.4 mill paid to Fergie by failed crypto company - that’s some serious cash - obviously used her PR to generate high roller investors - in the absence of further sexual abuse claims, it’s the money trails and dodgy payments from unscrupulous “business” people that will likely fill the pages over the coming months
