UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has publicly urged Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, to cooperate with the US investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's activities. Speaking to reporters in Japan on February 1, 2026, Starmer stated that anyone with information should share it, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing Epstein's victims. His comments follow the US Justice Department's announcement of releasing millions of pages of documents related to their two-decade investigation into Epstein. The disclosures have renewed scrutiny of Mountbatten-Windsor's relationship with Epstein, who died in jail in 2019. Despite a request from the US House Oversight Committee for an interview, Mountbatten-Windsor, who has denied wrongdoing, has so far not cooperated.
