Fergie ‘might be referred to as to testify in entrance of Congress’ on hyperlinks to Epstein claims royal knowledgeable – who says her ‘greed has no bounds’

Sarah Ferguson could be called to testify in front of Congress over her close friendship with paedophile Jeffery Epstein, a royal expert has claimed, claiming the money-obsessed royal’s ‘greed knows no bounds’.

Documents from the so-called Epstein files this week revealed that the former Duchess of York had visited the disgraced financier with her daughters just days after he was released from jail on a child sex offence.

Other emails showed that Ms Ferguson had tried to set up her ‘single’ friend who had a ‘great body’ with Epstein – despite knowing of his criminal convictions. Flirty messages between the pair also saw the Duchess call the paedophile a ‘legend’ and her ‘pillar’ of support.

And while the ex-royal has not been seen in public since December – with her whereabouts unknown – royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams has claimed she may be brought forward to testify in congress.

He told the Daily Mail: ‘She could be anywhere. Nobody knows where she is but it’s obvious day after day that we are getting pretty clear evidence she and Andrew were hand in glove with Epstein.

‘It’s also possible she might be asked to testify in front of congress. All of her emails point to a much closer relationship than we thought she had. With her greed knows no bounds.’

The royal expert said that Ms Ferguson’s relationship with Epstein would have been fueled by her need for an extravagant lifestyle.

He added: ‘She swore at the time she was not in touch with Epstein and we now know that is not true and that she spoke about him in the fondest terms.

‘We now know from the evidence that Sarah and him were hand in glove as he liked having royals around him and as far as she was concerned, Epstein helped her with money.

‘Money is at the root of this, there is no question about it. Andrew and Sarah Ferguson wanted a certain lifestyle and they surrounded themselves with dubious friends.

‘Epstein was not only undesirable but a paedophile and that did not seem to make any difference to her at all.’

Royal author Phil Dampier echoed Mr Fiztwilliams claims – even going so far to suggest that Ms Ferguson would have introduced her then husband to Epstein.

He told the Daily Mail: ‘As I understood it, she was probably responsible for introducing Andrew to Epstein in the first place. I am sure with Andrew the attraction was sex and with Fergie it was money. The moment she would get any money she would spend it.

‘She is incapable of keeping any money and that’s why someone like him who she could get money from was always going to lead her down the wrong path, like with the fake sheikh.

‘To show how desperate she was and how out of touch of reality she was to go and see him and take her daughters after he’d been convicted was utter madness. But I am afraid she has always had this reckless streak and it’s now coming home to roost.’

Ms Ferguson had been named hundreds of times throughout the three million pages of documents released on the Department of Justice’s website.

Dozens of emails had shown the extent of Fergies relationship with Epstein over the years – even after he became a convicted child offender.

She fawned over Epstein, who is known to have paid off some of her debts, telling him he was a ‘legend’ before joking later that they should marry.

Other emails she sent him mentioned her daughter Eugenie’s sex life and revealed Fergie had taken her children to lunch with the convicted paedophile when they were teenagers.

The Mail has also today unearthed an email from Ms Ferguson that suggests Epstein had a secret child. The former Duchess of York also accused him of abandoning her in 2011 and said it was ‘crystal clear’ he was only her friend to get close to her ex-husband Andrew.

If called to testify in front of congress she would join former president Bill Clinton who this week agreed to testify before the House Oversight Committee as part of its investigation into the convicted sex offender.

The decision came just days before lawmakers were set to vote on whether the Clintons could be held in criminal contempt for repeatedly avoiding calls to testify before congress.
