UK Police Disregarded Andrew-Epstein Evidence: Whistleblower

A former royal protection officer has accused U.K. police of ignoring his offer of first-hand information about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, prompting him to take his account to the FBI.

Paul Page, who worked at Buckingham Palace for six years, said he contacted Thames Valley Police earlier in 2026 in connection with its investigation into the former duke but received no response.

“Earlier in 2026, I contacted Thames Valley Police in connection with its investigation and made clear that I had information arising from my first-hand experience as a former Metropolitan Police Royal Protection officer. I received no response,” Page said.

He subsequently contacted the U.S. embassy in London and lodged a written statement with the FBI, according to The Telegraph.

He also sent information to Representative Thomas Massie, who recently accused Mountbatten-Windsor in the U.S. House of Representatives of committing sex crimes in the U.S. with Jeffrey Epstein.

Palace Access Claims

Page alleges that between 1997 and 2004, procedures were relaxed to allow Mountbatten-Windsor to bring multiple women into Buckingham Palace.

He also claims that young women, including Ghislaine Maxwell, were allowed to enter without their names being recorded in police log books.

“I have now formally documented my first-hand information in a written statement lodged with the FBI,” Page said.

He said the statement covers Mountbatten-Windsor, Maxwell and women whose access to Buckingham Palace he personally encountered, alongside what he described as supporting chronology and documentary material.

Police Investigation

Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office and remains under investigation by Thames Valley Police.

The force said in May that its inquiry had widened to include allegations of sexual misconduct and appealed for witnesses to come forward.

In February, the Metropolitan Police said it was identifying and contacting serving and former protection officers and asking them to consider whether they had information relevant to the case.

Page has separately lodged a formal complaint after receiving a letter from the head of royal protection reminding him of his confidentiality obligations to the Royal family.

He alleges the communication was improper. The complaint is being assessed by the force’s directorate of professional standards.

Page’s Background

Page was convicted of fraud in 2009 for activities he carried out while serving at Buckingham Palace.

He operated a betting syndicate known as the Currency Club and a property Ponzi scheme involving more than 100 other officers.

His decision to approach U.S. authorities followed Massie’s comments in Congress calling for people linked to Epstein to be investigated and prosecuted.

Mountbatten-Windsor has consistently denied allegations of wrongdoing.

Thames Valley Police said the investigation remained ongoing.

“Misconduct in public office is a complex crime and requires a thorough investigation,” a spokesman said.

“Our experienced team is working meticulously through a significant amount of information. While we cannot go into specific details of our investigation, we are following all reasonable lines of inquiry.”
