In the latest tranche of Jeffrey Epstein documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice on December 23, 2025, a series of cryptic email exchanges between Ghislaine Maxwell and a contact listed as “The Invisible Man”—signing off simply as “A”—has intensified scrutiny on ties to the British royal family.
The emails, dated August 2001, originate from someone claiming to be at “Balmoral Summer Camp for the Royal Family,” the Scottish estate traditionally used by royals. “A” writes: “How’s LA? Have you found me some new inappropriate friends?” and expresses desire for “fun people” for a post-summer trip. Maxwell replies apologetically: “So sorry to disappoint you, however the truth must be told. I have only been able to find appropriate friends.”
Compelling contextual clues strongly suggest “A” is Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew: the Balmoral reference, mention of recently leaving the Royal Navy (which he did in July 2001), and a valet’s death aligning with contemporaneous reports. A separate 2002 thread shows Maxwell coordinating “girls” for “A”‘s Peru trip, specifying “friendly and discreet and fun” companions from “good families.”
Mountbatten-Windsor, stripped of royal titles in October 2025 over Epstein associations, has long denied wrongdoing, including allegations by the late Virginia Giuffre of trafficked sexual encounters (settled without admission in 2022).
Additional files reveal U.S. prosecutors in 2020 sought to interview him, citing evidence he “engaged in sexual conduct” with an Epstein victim and knew of Maxwell’s recruitment practices.
While the emails lack explicit confirmation and suggest no proven illegality, their timing—months after Giuffre’s alleged encounters—and coded language fuel questions about royal proximity to Epstein’s network. As releases continue, these messages tie the scandal deeper to elite circles.
