Prince Andrew is considering doing another interview about his friendship with paedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, royal sources have claimed.
The Queen's son sat down with Newnight's Emily Maitlis to face a number of difficult questions on the subject in what many have described as a "car crash" inteview.
It was the first time Andrew, 59, has faced questions about his friendship with Epstein and claims he had sex with a 17-year-old girl - which he denies.
According to insiders the prince hoped to draw a line under the issue, but many viewers believe it left more questions than it gave answers.
According to Vanity Fair's Katie Nicholl , he now wants to do a second chat to "put right the things he didn't say".
A source said: "There are rumors swirling that Andrew wants to do another interview.
"Andrew hasn’t drawn a line under it. He wants the chance to put right the things he didn’t say.
"Newsnight gave him the chance to show some remorse. He was asked if there was anything else he wanted to say. It was an open goal - he didn’t grasp it, and I think he sees that now."
However Buckingham Palace is "not aware" that anything is in the pipeline at this point.
Andrew reportedly told the Queen the interview was "a great success".
A friend of the duke told the Sun: "The duke went to church with the Queen (on Sunday) and was heard telling her it’s all been a great success.
“He thinks he’s done the right thing and has put the criticism to rest. He was all smiles and was looking very buoyant and happy.”
Andrew told aides he was “happy” with his performance despite being grilled by Maitlis on his relationship with Epstein, a convicted sex offender who killed himself in jail earlier this year while facing child sex trafficking charges.
Behind the scenes palace sources have described the duke's performance as “utterly jaw dropping” with one insider suggesting aides were left “dumbfounded” after watching the Newsnight interview on Saturday evening.
