‘I gave Andrew naked massage at Buckingham Palace – here’s who paid’ | Royal | News

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor allegedly received a private nude massage in a bedroom at Buckingham Palace in the summer of 2000. The former prince, who was working as a royal at the time, snuck into the Palace professional masseuse Monique Giannelloni, who was recommended to him by Ghislaine Maxwell.

The masseuse claims she went through no security checks when entering the Palace or being taken to Andrew’s room. This was where the former prince allegedly undressed for a massage.

Ms Giannelloni was later informed that the £75 bill was paid directly from the Royal Family Coutts account.

allegations Published in The Daily MailAccording to the masseuse: “I got to the room and Andrew was standing there in a bathrobe. After saying ‘hello’ he went to the bathroom and came back naked. I looked away and was quite embarrassed.”

Ms Giannelloni said there were no problems during the massage and described the former duke as “very nice and very gentlemanly”.

She claims she only massaged him once after meeting him through Maxwell, whom he had previously massaged.

During this massage with Maxwell, Ms. Giannelloni said Jeffrey Epstein was watching, which she found “weird.”

He also said Maxwell told him he would be introduced to “someone more famous than God”; This happened shortly before the masseuse received a phone call from one of Andrew’s staff asking her to come to Buckingham Palace.

She told The Mail: “When I got the call from the Duke of York’s civil servants, Ghislaine immediately came to mind because of what she said.

“I didn’t know who Ghislaine or Epstein were.”

The Daily Mail reported that the check for Andrew’s massage was signed by the Duke’s then-personal assistant Charlotte Manley and paid from the Royal Family’s Coutts account.

Buckingham Palace has been approached for comment.
