Overview
- A printed email titled “Settlement - John O’Sullivan” referenced an agreed $59,933 reimbursement involving the former Duke and Duchess of York.
- The message, addressed to Amanda Thirsk and photographed on Epstein’s desk in 2015, followed O’Sullivan reducing his wage claim from $72,596, and its presence there remains unexplained.
- The visible document shows it was sent to Thirsk, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson, with Andrew replying “Er?” according to the photo.
- Photographer Christopher Anderson says he shot Epstein at home in 2015 for a New York Magazine profile later scrapped, and he rediscovered the images this week on an old hard drive.
- Ferguson has acknowledged accepting £15,000 from Epstein in 2010 toward O’Sullivan’s pay during a wider debt restructuring, while reports differ on whether the larger $59,933 settlement was ultimately paid.
