"He took off his towel very quickly." Jeffrey Epstein's friend revealed she massaged a naked Prince Andrew at Buckingham Palace.

Amid the revelations of billionaire Jeffrey Epstein's sex crimes, masseuse Monique Giannelloni has publicly admitted to massaging a naked Prince Andrew in a bedroom at Buckingham Palace.
Giannelloni told the Daily Mail that she was hired in 2000 by Epstein's friend Ghislaine Maxwell. "I first got a call from Ghislaine Maxwell's secretary in New York. At the time, I had a lot of high-profile clients through word of mouth, so I don't know how she got my number. She wanted a late-night massage, but I told her I wasn't working that time, so I came the next morning."
The masseuse recalls that while she was giving Maxwell a massage, Jeffrey Epstein was in the room with them. She knew nothing about her client and her friend, but she found it odd. She recalls Epstein and Maxwell discussing buying an island. "I found it very strange, and it was awkward that Epstein was just standing there."
Giannelloni added that before she received the offer to work with Andrew, Maxwell told her, "I'm going to introduce you to a man who is better known than God."
Soon after, Monique was invited to Buckingham Palace. She entered without any security checks, and Andrew's entourage was unguarded. She was led to the prince's bedroom, where he greeted her in a robe. Afterward, according to Monique Giannelloni, Queen Elizabeth's son went to the bathroom and returned completely naked.
"I walked into the room, and Andrew was standing there in his robe. After he said hello, he went into the bathroom and came back completely naked. I looked away, and I felt really awkward," the masseuse recalls.
She noted that this was the only unpleasant moment. "I can't say anything bad about Prince Andrew from my experience that day. I only massaged him once. If there was anything amiss, I don't remember noticing it, except that he took off the towel very quickly. Overall, he was polite and behaved like a gentleman. I did the massage and left."
For her work, the girl received a check for 75 pounds sterling (about 8,000 rubles at today's exchange rate), which was paid from the royal family's account at Coutts bank.
As a reminder, in 2005, Queen Elizabeth II's youngest son, Prince Andrew, was suspected of having an affair with Jeffrey Epstein, an accused sex offender. Epstein's victim, Virginia Giuffre, alleged that she had sex with Andrew three times while she was underage. She received $15,000 for the affair. Several years ago, Andrew gave a controversial interview in which he addressed the allegations of rape of a minor and his affair with Epstein. Following this, he stepped down as a member of the royal family, and last year, he was stripped of his title as prince. Andrew was recently detained by police on his 66th birthday, where he spent approximately 12 hours in interrogation.
Bill Gates previously admitted to cheating on his wife with two Russian women amid accusations of involvement in Epstein's sex crimes.
