In the early 2000s, while serving in an official capacity as the UK’s Trade Envoy, Prince Andrew travelled to Thailand for what was publicly described as a diplomatic mission. According to historian Andrew Lownie, the visit included a stay in a five-star Bangkok hotel rather than at the British embassy, and during what was designated “private time” in the official itinerary he is alleged to have had up to 40 sex workers brought to his hotel suite over a four-day span.

The allegations further claim that taxpayer funds were used to cover that trip, and that diplomatic and royal staff helped facilitate the hotel booking and stay. If true, this incident raises serious ethical questions about the use of public office for personal indulgence, the accountability of royals on trade missions, and the lack of transparency in the files covering Andrew’s envoy years (2001-2011).


During the early 2000s, Prince Andrew is reported to have visited Jeffrey Epstein’s New Mexico ranch — identified as Zorro Ranch, near Santa Fe — which has become notorious in civil suits and media scrutiny for alleged sex-trafficking and under-age abuse claims. The allegations in court documents and depositions assert that Epstein used the ranch for illicit activity, including recruiting minors for so-called “massages” and transporting guests to the property via private landing strip. Among the names listed in these documents is Prince Andrew, though the papers do not allege direct sexual activity by him at the ranch; rather, the presence of his name in guest logs or mentions in deposition material raises serious reputational concerns.
