The Queen was the real target behind the Prince Andrew scandal, claims his ex-wife's former lover

Sarah Ferguson, aka Fergie’s, former lover John Bryan has alleged that Jeffery Epstein’s real target was never Prince Andrew, instead, he wanted to blackmail the Queen using him. However, Prince Andrew never gave him a chance to do that.

Failed attempt

The US businessman, who had a four-year relationship with Fergie and was pictured sucking her toes, claimed that Epstein earned his money by blackmailing powerful men in exchange for his silence over their illicit antics.

However, this ploy failed as Prince Andrew never gave the accused paedophile the ‘ammunition’ to ruin him. Bryan told Mailonline:

It was just an extortion plot. People always ask how Epstein made his money. He was supposed to be this tax wizard. But it was all a con.

He blackmailed rich men and then made them pay to avoid scandal. He made hundreds of millions of dollars this way.

Epstein tried to lure Andrew into his web, but I believe his ultimate mark was the Queen.

Bryan asserted that he was called back into the royal frame to counsel Andrew during his tell-all interview. He added:

Andrew's television interview had been a catastrophe so they needed an honest strategic plan that everyone could buy into.

She invited me to come over. She was desperate. She told me that Andrew was in terrible shape. He was distraught. They were distraught.

'Andrew is innocent'

After the Newsnight interview, which came in the aftermath of the Epstein affair and amid suspicions Andrew had sex with Virginia Giuffre, he recounted how he was smuggled into the Royal Lodge at Windsor to assist Andrew. But he also insisted that Andrew was innocent. He said:

I believe Andrew is innocent. If he genuinely was involved in 'orgies' as has been alleged, then Epstein would have used that to try and bribe the Queen into paying out millions to protect her family.

Andrew has never had any money. The Queen was the one with money. I truly believe Epstein was going after her but Andrew never gave him the ammunition to do so.
