A woman abused by the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has said they had dinner in Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's private apartments in Buckingham Palace.

Kellen's testimony, presented to the US House Oversight Committee, marks the first time a victim has publicly spoken about attending royal residences in connection with Epstein. Prince Andrew, who has been stripped of his royal title following allegations related to his association with Epstein, has consistently denied any wrongdoing. Kellen clarified that she did not witness any inappropriate behavior from Prince Andrew himself.

She attended Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.

The House Oversight Committee is conducting a congressional investigation into Epstein, who died in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Kellen, who worked for Epstein for over a decade, described being sexually and psychologically abused by him. She confirmed receiving compensation from Epstein's estate, established to provide financial relief to survivors.

“

I feel like she kind of taught and shaped Jeffrey into who he became, showed him how to use his money.

Kellen also implicated Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's associate serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking. She suggested Maxwell played a significant role in shaping Epstein's lifestyle and criminal activities, noting that he acquired private planes and a townhouse only after their association. Kellen stated she was unaware of being named a "co-conspirator" in Epstein's plea deal until it became public.

“

Like, he didn't have private planes before her, he didn't have the townhouse before her. Like, she kind of showed him how he should live his life.
