Prince Andrew says he regrets his ill-judged association with Epstein and adds he’s willing to help any law enforcement agency if required.
American billionaire Jeffrey Epstein was a convicted sex offender who committed suicide in prison earlier this year.
In a recent BBC interview, Prince Andrew denied allegations of having relations with a teenager who claims she was trafficked by Epstein.
