Overview

• Allen told The Sunday Times he first met Epstein at a December 2010 dinner that included the Duke of York and said Epstein "couldn't have been nicer."
• He said a publicist invited him and Soon‑Yi Previn, after which they became regular guests at Epstein's townhouse with "a table of illustrious people."
• Allen stated he never saw underage girls at the gatherings and said Epstein had adult girlfriends.
• He recounted Epstein saying he had been falsely imprisoned and was trying to atone by funding scientists and universities.
• Allen said Ghislaine Maxwell was not at the dinners; Epstein died in a New York prison in 2019 after a sex‑trafficking arrest, Maxwell is serving a 20‑year sentence, and Prince Andrew later stepped back from public duties and settled a civil case with Virginia Giuffre.
