Andrew and Peter Mandelson appear in bathrobes as they sit with Epstein in new picture

The first known picture of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Mandelson has surfaced. 

The image shows Andrew and Mandelson, the UK's former ambassador to the US, sitting in white bathrobes with the late convicted paedophile.

The picture was among the Epstein files released by the US Department of Justice. Being mentioned in the files is not evidence of wrongdoing.

The former prince has always denied wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.

Lord Mandelson has previously denied any wrongdoing over his relationship with the billionaire paedophile and has apologised to the financier's victims.

Andrew lost his royal and military titles over his links to Epstein, who took his life while awaiting trial for sex trafficking charges in a US prison in 2019.

The former prince was arrested and released under investigation on Thursday 19 February, over allegations of misconduct in public office - something he strongly denies.

He had been arrested at Sandringham on his 66th birthday on suspicion that he shared sensitive information with Epstein when he was UK trade envoy.

The former prince has been living at Sandringham since leaving Royal Lodge in Windsor at the start of February.

Lord Mandelson was questioned by police after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office at the end of last month.

He was accused of passing sensitive information to Epstein during his time as business secretary from 2008 to 2010, when Gordon Brown was prime minister.

He was released on bail and he has previously denied any wrongdoing.
