Bombshell book claims Jeffrey Epstein called Prince Andrew a ‘serial sex addict'
Prince Andrew has been branded a 'serial sex addict' in a bombshell new book — with Jeffrey Epstein reportedly claiming the Duke of York was even kinkier than him.
The shocking allegations appear in 'Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York', which the British royal reportedly tried to block, The Sun reports.
According to the Daily Mail, late pedophile financier Epstein is quoted in the book as saying: 'We are both serial sex addicts.
'From the reports I've got back from the women we've shared, he's the most perverted animal in the bedroom.
'He likes to engage in stuff that's even kinky to me – and I'm the king of kink!'
The explosive revelations come alongside fresh allegations about Andrew's conduct on royal tours.

A Reuters correspondent reported that, during the King of Thailand's diamond jubilee celebrations in 2006, more than 40 women were taken to Andrew's Bangkok hotel room.
'Often, as soon as one left, another would arrive,' the reporter said.
Hotel staff were reportedly stunned that 'more than 10 a day' were going to the Duke's suite.
The exposé portrays the 64-year-old royal as a man consumed by sex, with claims from an investigative journalist that he has bedded over a thousand women, ranging from porn stars and actresses to palace staff and bartenders.
One 20-year-old model, who says she twice slept with Andrew before being whisked to Mustique, recalled: 'He wanted me to engage in kinky sexual activity.
'He had no boundaries. He told me he had an open marriage arrangement with his wife.
'After returning to London, I never heard from him again. I felt like he used me for a few days, so he could live his wildest fantasies.'

Masseuse Emma Gruenbaum, who worked on him at Royal Lodge, alleged Andrew was a 'constant sex pest,' insisting on being naked for massages and making crude remarks.
'That's just not normal behaviour for a professional sports therapy session,' she said.
The book also recounts disturbing tales from palace insiders.
One former staff member claimed: 'When I started, I was warned to stay away from him.
'He would sometimes enter the staff quarters.
'It seemed everyone was aware of his behaviour, but little was done about it.'
From his 'Randy Andy' schoolboy reputation to being accused of bullying aides and humiliating women at society events, Andrew is painted as both sex-obsessed and arrogant.
Aides alleged he once had an employee moved because of a mole on his face, while another was sidelined for wearing a nylon tie.
The York family reportedly tried to block the book, warning contacts not to co-operate and enlisting the Foreign Office to discourage diplomats from speaking.
Despite legal threats, the exposé has gone to print — leaving Andrew once again at the centre of a scandal.

It comes as a top lawyer warned that Andrew may not be in the clear despite the FBI dropping its probe into his ties with Jeffrey Epstein.
Spencer Kuvin, who has represented five of Epstein's alleged victims, said the Duke of York, 65, still has reason to worry after six years of avoiding travel abroad for fear of arrest.
'I still don't think Andrew can sleep soundly,' Mr Kuvin said.
'With the quick change of administration or new leadership at the Department of Justice, the investigation could be reopened or continued.
'Andrew needs to visit the US to answer questions from the FBI. Avoiding this merely makes people think he's guilty.'
Andrew has always denied claims by Virginia Giuffre that he abused her when she was 17, insisting he never saw or suspected Epstein's crimes.
Giuffre died in Australia in April at the age of 41.
There is no statute of limitations for federal sex crimes in the US, meaning allegations could be revived at any time.
Andrew has not set foot in America since meeting Epstein in New York in 2010.

Zara and Mike Tindall huge 'support' to Prince William
Zara and Mike Tindall will be a huge "support" for Prince William when he becomes King. The 43-year-old Prince of Wales is next in line to the British throne after his father King Charles and royal insiders believe he could turn to his cousin Zara, 44, and her husband Mike, 46, to help him and his wife Catherine, Princess of Wales, with his duties. Royal commentator Jennie Bond told OK! Magazine: "As the years go by, I think they'll be a highly valued support for William when the time comes for him to be King. They are both very close to William and if he calls on them, they will definitely agree." It has been suggested that accomplished equestrian Zara could take on a role running royal horse racing, something William doesn't have a huge interest in. Bond said: "There will be so many demands on William's time when he is King that I think it's a brilliant idea - if the reports are to be believed - that he might hand over racing matters to Zara. Like her mother, Princess Anne, she lives and breathes horses - she's also extremely glamorous and well-liked, it would be a perfect fit." And, William is said to rely on his close friendship with Mike, particularly as his relationship with his brother Prince Harry has been fraught since Harry and his wife Duchess Meghan stepped down as senior royals in 2020. Bond said: "Mike is increasingly the brother William no longer has – they are really fast friends and big huggers. "Zara and Mike are equally professional, dressing up for the occasion and playing their part, but they bring a lightness of touch and a sense of fun to almost everything they do."

Tom Holland says Bond would be 'pinnacle' of career
Tom Holland has admitted playing James Bond would be the "pinnacle" of his career. The Spider-Man star is said to be in the frame to portray the suave spy in Denis Villeneuve's upcoming movie in the franchise and while the 29-year-old actor refused to be drawn on the speculation, he suggested landing the role would be a dream come true. Speaking to Gordon Ramsay on YouTube, he said of the rumours: "Listen, there's speculation at the moment. We'll keep it to a minimum for now. We'll get there one day." The Hell's Kitchen star then further pressed Holland on the issue. He said: "Can you imagine what's going to happen to your life if you do? First of all, you'd love that opportunity, right?" Holland replied: "I mean every young British actor, it's the pinnacle of working in our industry. I already consider myself to be the luckiest kid alive. I could not have dreamed to have the career that I have." The Devil All the Time actor's comments come shortly after Rocketman star Taron Egerton dismissed the idea he could replace Daniel Craig as 007 because he is "too messy". Asked about the possibility of playing Bond, he told Collider: "I don't think I'm a good choice for it. I think I'm too messy for that. "I think I'm not— I really love James Bond and particularly Daniel Craig's tenure. But I think I wouldn't be good at it, and I think there's so many cool, younger actors who would be great for it. I think it would be wasted on me, probably." Egerton observed that leading the Bond franchise is "quite an undertaking". And he suggested that the scale of the project might not suit him, either. The 35-year-old actor explained: "That's not to say that I don't have aspirations and plans and also that I wouldn't be interested in doing something that's more commercial, because of course I would. "I think I'm a period in my life where, as you say, I've been probably following the things that speak to me on a creative level a little bit more, but, you know, I'm sure I won't feel that way forever. "But James Bond is quite an undertaking and I think, one, as far as I'm aware, nobody's asking me to do it." Egerton suggested that he might find more satisfaction in pursuing other film projects. He said: "It's possibly not quite the thing that would make me happiest. I do think it's a big old undertaking, it kind of consumes your life, a role like that." Meanwhile, Sydney Sweeney is reportedly being lined up to play the next Bond girl. The 27-year-old actress is wanted by new 007 director Denis Villeneuve for a role in the upcoming film and the move is said to have the backing of Amazon boss Jeff Bezos, with the company acquiring creative control of the spy franchise from long-serving producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson. A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Sydney is the top name on the casting sheet for Bond. "Denis believes she is hugely talented, as well as having an alluring appeal to younger generations, vital in modernising the franchise. "They've hung out together a lot and he has admired her stratospheric rise. "Plus Sydney has the quality of being athletic and able to perform physical scenes, as well as being feminine and following in the legacy of the Bond girls."
