Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s ex-girlfriend has claimed that Jeffrey Epstein could still be alive, despite being pronounced dead seven years ago. Lady Victoria Hervey said she think’s there’s a “possibility” that the disgraced financier could be alive somewhere.

She told LBC’s Tom Swarbrick: “I don’t even think Jeffrey Epstein’s dead anymore, to be honest … No I don’t … I think, just, I’d seen one of those emails, one of the ones that ended up in the files, and I think that prison guard needs to be interviewed. The one that he said he saw the bodies being switched out.”

She referenced an anonymous post on 4Chan, said to be by a prison guard, that said Epstein was “switched out” and taken away in a “trip van”. In the latest release of files, the poster was named and confirmed to be a prison guard.

When pressed for a location of the convicted pedophile, she said “Israel“.

Lady Hervey is named in the Epstein files 23 times, saying if you aren’t named it would be an “insult” and you were “a bit of a loser”.

She said: “He knew everybody that was very powerful. So, like, if you were on the scene and you were powerful, to be honest, if you’re not in those files, it would be an insult because it just means that you were a bit of a loser.”

According to new records released by the US Department of Justice, the US attorney’s statement on Epstein’s death was drafted the day before his death.

This has sparked unfounded speculation online over the fate of Epstein.

People have also shared an image of a man who “looks like” Epstein to support the claim. However, this image was AI generated.

A statement from the Southern District of New York’s US Attorney’s Office was dated August 9, 2019 – the day before he was found dead in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan. 

It’s titled “Statement of Manhattan US Attorney on the Death of Defendant Jeffrey Epstein” and attributed to then-Manhattan US Attorney Geoffrey S Berman.

Berman wrote that the Manhattan Correctional Center found Epstein unresponsive in his cell and was later pronounced dead.

It reads: “Earlier this morning, the Manhattan Correctional Center confirmed that Jeffrey Epstein, who faced charges brought by this Office of engaging in the sex trafficking of minors, had been found unresponsive in his cell and pronounced dead shortly thereafter.”
