The King and Queen will not be able to meet with survivors of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during next month’s state visit to the US, according to a new report.
US congressman Ro Khanna wrote to the King Monday, calling for him to meet survivors privately during the state visit which will take place in late April.
It is understood that the couple will not be able to meet survivors while there are ongoing UK police investigations into matters related to Epstein.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Duke of York, and Lord Peter Mandelson, the former UK ambassador to the US, were arrested last month on suspicion of misconduct in public office over their connections with the paedophile financier.
They have since been released under investigation.
Charles and the Camilla’s long-expected historic trip is scheduled to take place in late April despite calls for it to be postponed or even cancelled because of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
US president Donald Trump declared the trip will be a “momentous occasion” in a post on his Truth Social site, adding that there would be “a beautiful Banquet Dinner” at the White House on the evening of April 28.
He also revealed the “historic state visit” will take place over four days from April 27-30, despite Buckingham Palace deciding not to release the exact dates in its own official announcement.
“I look forward to spending time with the King, whom I greatly respect. It will be TERRIFIC!,” Mr Trump added.
