A former royal protection officer, Paul Page, has shared information with the FBI about alleged secret visits to Buckingham Palace by Ghislaine Maxwell and other young women, claiming British authorities have ignored his evidence. Page worked at Buckingham Palace for six years and alleges that between 1997 and 2007, rules were relaxed to allow Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor—commonly known as the Duke of York—to bring women into the royal building. He said he reported his findings to Thames Valley Police based on his "first-hand experience" but received no response. Recently, he has formally documented his claims in a written statement submitted to the FBI.
Page also shared his testimony with Representative Thomas Massie, a Republican congressman who previously accused Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of committing sex crimes in the United States with Jeffrey Epstein. In October, Andrew was stripped of his royal titles due to the Epstein scandal and later removed from his residence at Royal Lodge in Windsor. He was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office and remains under investigation by Thames Valley Police. Earlier this month, the police force called for witnesses to come forward, suggesting the investigation may now include claims of sexual misconduct.
Paul Page was convicted of fraud in 2009 while working at Buckingham Palace. He was involved in running a betting syndicate called the Currency Club and a property investment scheme, known as a ponzi scheme, that affected more than 100 officers. Page claims that young women, including Ghislaine Maxwell, were allowed to visit the palace secretly, and their names were not recorded in the log books. He received a letter from the head of royal protection reminding him of his confidentiality obligations, which he interpreted as an attempt to silence him during a time when witnesses were being encouraged to come forward. He has since formally complained about the alleged improper communication from a senior officer.
Page shared details of his allegations with Representative Massie, who recently claimed in a speech that the Duke of York committed sex crimes in the U.S. Page said that Massie’s public statement influenced his decision to report the information to the FBI. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has consistently denied any wrongdoing. A Thames Valley Police spokesperson said that "misconduct in public office is a complex crime and requires a thorough investigation. Our experienced team is working meticulously through a significant amount of information. While we cannot go into specific details of our investigation, we are following all reasonable lines of enquiry." Buckingham Palace and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor were approached for comment but have not yet responded.
