Buckingham Palace Received Emails About Prince Andrew Six Years Ago

Buckingham Palace Received Emails About Prince Andrew Six Years Ago

BBC reports reveal that Buckingham Palace was made aware in 2020 of a large archive of emails allegedly linked to Prince Andrew’s role as a trade envoy and containing sensitive government information

Buckingham Palace was informed as early as 2020 of a disputed set of emails allegedly involving Prince Andrew’s activities as a UK trade envoy, according to documents cited by the BBC.

Court records indicate that an archive of around 30,000 emails, linked to controversial financial transactions involving the former prince, was handed over that year to the Lord Chamberlain, the most senior official in the Royal Household. At the time, the position was held by Lord Peel.

A ruling from the UK High Court in April 2021 stated that a copy of the archive had been provided to the Lord Chamberlain in May 2020. A subsequent ruling in June 2022 referenced an email dated July 10, 2020, noting that the material had been delivered to Buckingham Palace.

The Lord Chamberlain’s role includes overseeing the conduct and general administration of the Royal Household, according to the official Royal Family website.

Buckingham Palace, when asked to comment, said it could not address the matter due to an ongoing police investigation involving Prince Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

The Thames Valley Police recently urged anyone with relevant information to come forward following his arrest on allegations of misconduct in public office.

The emails are considered significant because they relate to a highly controversial period of financial dealings involving Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the Rowland family, and Banque Havilland, a bank later sanctioned by the UK and the European Union.

The correspondence was delivered to Buckingham Palace during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Under King Charles III, the approach toward Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has reportedly become more restrictive, including the removal of his royal titles.

Following his arrest, King Charles stated that “the law must take its course.” Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has denied any personal financial gain from his role as a trade envoy.
