A US lawmaker has made a direct plea to Sarah Ferguson to testify about her “close personal and business ties” to Jeffrey Epstein, according to a letter seen exclusively by the BBCCongressman Suhas Subramanyam urged her to provide information to the US congressional committee investigating the late sex offender. He also asked for any knowledge she had of her ex-husband Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s involvement in Epstein’s operations.
The letter represents the most direct pressure on the former duchess to testify since the start of the Epstein scandal.
Ferguson’s representatives have been approached for comment. Mountbatten-Windsor has denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.
Mountbatten-Windsor has not responded to the BBC’s requests for comment on the specific allegations in relation to the release of millions of Epstein files in January.
At the weekend, the BBC first revealed that some US lawmakers were calling for Ferguson to give evidence concerning her links to Epstein.
There is no legal mechanism to compel the former duchess to testify in the US
