The Duke of York introduced Goga Ashkenazy to Queen Elizabeth last year, they spoke together at a trade conference in Qatar, and last December they were seen dining together at a restaurant in Ascot.

Fortunately, there were no young people nearby. Later it turned out that the girls did not take drugs, but were under the influence of alcohol.

And Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, was born in Buckingham Palace February 19, 1960 He was baptized in the Palace Music Hall by the Archbishop of Canterbury and Dr. Geoffrey Fisher, and at the baptism received the name Andrew Albert Christian Edward. Andrew is the name of Prince Philip's father, Albert is the name of the Queen's father. Following tradition, Andrew began his education at home and continued at Heatherdown Preparatory School near Ascot, . In September 1973, he followed in the footsteps of his father and his brother Charles by enrolling at Spartan School Gordonstown in Scotland, graduating in July 1979 with top marks in English language, history, political science and economics. Unlike his older brother Charles, Andrew enjoyed his time in Gordonstown.

After leaving school, Andrew joined the Royal Navy in November 1979. He started training course as a helicopter pilot in May 1980 and served in the Falklands War against Argentina aboard the Invincible. In February 1992, he was promoted to Lieutenant Commander of HMS Cottesmore.

As a young man, he gained a reputation as a playboy prince, and after serving in the Falklands War became the subject of nasty press coverage by going on vacation with his current girlfriend, American actress Ku Stark, who had previously appeared in pornographic magazines. Thanks to his sister-in-law, Princess Diana, Andrew fell in love with her red-haired friend in Westminster Abbey. Upon marriage, Andrew received from the queen the traditional title of the second royal son - Duke of York, he also holds the titles of Earl of Inverness and Baron Killeleysky.

Their union produced two daughters. The eldest, Princess Beatrice of York, was born on August 8, 1988 at the Portland Hospital, at the baptism of Beatrice Mary Elizabeth Mountbatten-Windsor. The youngest daughter, Princess Eugenie, was born on March 23, 1990 at Portland Hospital and was baptized with the name Eugenia Victoria Helena Mountbatten-Windsor at St Mary Magdalene Church, Sandringham, by the Bishop of Norwich, becoming the first member of the royal family to be baptized in public.

An extrovert by temperament, Sarah Ferguson was like a breath of fresh air when she joined the royal family. The couple made a number of successful trips abroad representing the interests of the Queen. However, soon in marriage, which immediately became the focus of funds mass media cracks began to appear. The Duchess of York has often been subjected to harmful criticism from the press for her taste in clothes and overweight.

Andrew's naval career meant he was often away from home, and the adventurous Duchess of York began to spend a lot of time with American fans, Texan Steve White and John Bryan. Later, these relations became public knowledge. When incriminating photos of the Duchess and her "financial adviser" John Bryan appeared in the national newspapers, the Duchess was at Balmoral, where the traditional summer holiday is held with the rest of the royal family. She left with a scandal, which again provoked a strong reaction from the newspapers.

The couple divorced in May 1996. It was a civilized divorce, they shared custody of their two daughters and continue to share family holidays with them. Duke Andrew remains close to both daughters.

In January 1999, Andrew took an appointment in the Foreign Office navy and finally left the fleet in July 2001. He has since taken on the role of UK Special Representative for international trade and investments. Andrew loves to play and is a patron of the Golf Foundation.

The Duke of York's public concerns include supporting the Queen as Head of State, supporting businesses in the community and finding ways to improve their ability to bring prosperity to the UK. In addition to these duties, His Royal Highness also contributes to the development of charitable organizations, provides patronage and support for initiatives that promote social and entrepreneurial activity youth.











As is known, fairy tales about princes and princesses, which children love to listen to, always have a happy ending. The heirs to the throne in them are distinguished by ambition, valor and are guided by the ideals of goodness and justice. However, in reality, as practice shows, the children of monarchs often find themselves at the center of scandals and become participants in litigation, which are initiated in connection with their far from exemplary behavior. Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, was no exception in this sense. His business reputation in the British kingdom, where conservative foundations and traditions are strong, has certainly suffered. But does the aforementioned heir to the throne really leave much to be desired? Let's consider this question in more detail.

Curriculum vitae

Prince Andrew was born in 1960 at Buckingham Manor.

The boy became the second male offspring, who was born to Queen Elizabeth II in marriage with the Duke of Edinburgh Philip. He was named after his paternal grandfather, who bore the title of Prince of Greece and Denmark. Prince Andrew, like other children of the royal family, was raised by a governess. By the age of 19, the young man already had a diploma in the history of economic and political science. Taking the document with him, he goes to study at the Royal Naval College, and soon he is enrolled in the flotilla, where he begins to learn the basics of the profession "pilot of a military helicopter."

The beginning of a pilot's career

It did not take long for the heir to the British throne to get on a military aircraft as a trainee. In May 1979, Prince Andrew signed a twelve-year aviation contract.

In 1980, a young man receives a green beret. Over the next two years, a member of the royal family studies in continuing education courses, and then becomes a professional pilot. He joins the command of 820 Naval Air Squadron, which serves on board the aircraft carrier Invincible.

War

Soon, a military conflict between Britain and Argentina over the Falkland Islands begins to develop. The striking forces of the European power were, of course, naval aviation and the Royal Navy, so the English Cabinet did not want to endanger the health and life of the middle son of Elizabeth II. However, she did not support this idea and insisted that Prince Andrew participate in the war for national interest. After her, the royal couple met their son in Portsmouth, where he arrived on the ship Invincible.

The heir to the throne received gratitude from the commander, who called him a promising officer and a high-class pilot.

Career Peak

Prince Andrew (son of Elizabeth 2), whose biography undoubtedly deserves separate consideration, continues to climb career ladder: in 1984 he was awarded the rank of lieutenant, and his mother appointed him as a personal assistant - adjutant. In the future, the royal offspring is entrusted with the command of the army in various parts planets.

In the winter of 2010, the Duke of York, in honor of his fiftieth birthday, receives another military rank- now he is an honorary rear admiral. After some time, Prince Andrew (son of Elizabeth) decides to complete military career and go to civil service as UK Special Trade Representative.

Personal life

The relationship of the offspring of the British queen with the opposite sex has acquired a lot of rumors and rumors. Prince Andrew got married when he was 26 years old.

His chosen one was the daughter of the sports manager of Prince Charles - Sarah Margaret Ferguson. They were also familiar with young years, but the real spark of love between them ran in 1985. Prince Andrew and met by chance at the royal races. Sharks pen wrote that not last role Princess Diana, who wanted to distract the prince from unsuccessful romance with actress Koo Stark. The wedding took place in the summer of 1986 at Westminster Abbey, at the same time Prince Andrew was awarded the title of Duke of York. Andrew presented his wife with a truly royal gift - wedding ring, inlaid with a Burmese ruby.

In the early 90s, when the head of the family "went to sea", Prince Andrew's wife led a far from reclusive lifestyle. She was often seen in male society. Thus appeared the first crack in the relationship between Ferguson and the Prince of York. In 1992, the royal couple announced that their union was coming to an end, but only four years later an official divorce was issued. In marriage, Andrew and Sarah had two daughters - Beatrice (1988) and Eugene (1990). Subsequently, the ex-wife of the Prince of York, along with his offspring, moved to live in a family residence. Sarah Ferguson remained and remains on friendly terms with Andrew.

Scandal #1

One of the unpleasant incidents that negatively affected the business reputation of the Prince of York is connected with his ex-wife.

She was accused of the following: she wanted to receive a large sum of money for organizing the acquaintance of her ex-husband with one entrepreneur who had problems in business. It was expected that the royal offspring, who held the high post of special trade representative, would help resolve the "business" troubles of his new acquaintance. The deal was valued at £500,000. Moreover, “close to the court” gladly took an advance payment for her work. Subsequently, the fraud was revealed, and Prince Andrew, whose photos began to appear en masse in hastened to declare that he knew nothing about his wife's intentions. Sarah Ferguson said that she "decided on such a brave deed only because he is in financial difficulty.

Scandal #2

Another painful incident for the Prince of York is the accusation of sexual harassment against an underage girl. The plaintiff appealed to the American court so that justice would prevail.

She claimed that the son of Elizabeth II repeatedly found herself in bed with her: they say, he really liked the figure and slender legs of the girl. The victim added that for the "night of love" she received from the Prince of York 15 thousand dollars. The plaintiff also added that she worked as a courtesan for a certain banker Jeffrey Epstein. Among his regular customers There was also Prince Andrew. One way or another, but the defendant in every possible way denied the sexual relationship between him and Epstein's concubine.

Case out of the ordinary...

An extraordinary incident occurred with the second son of Elizabeth II, when he was in the residence of Buckingham Palace.

Law enforcement took him for a thief. Prince Andrew decided evening time walk through the palace garden. Seeing the man and not recognizing him, the police asked to show the documents. In addition, law enforcement officers pointed a pistol towards the heir to the throne, but the police rejected this version of what was happening. This response from employees law enforcement was explained by the fact that on the eve of the incident, a certain person tried to illegally enter the territory of the palace. Naturally, the police apologized to Prince Andrew for the inconvenience caused.

Finally, we note that the Duke of York has no male children: if he does not remarry and have a son, his title may return to the Crown.


Prince Andrew Albert Christian Edward, Duke of York, the middle son of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain, who is divorced from the much-hated royal family Sarah Ferguson (pictured right), was under the spotlight of the world press because of the scandal associated with the sale of his Sunninghill Park estate , built of red brick in the town of Ascot, Berkshire, famous for its racetrack, bought for him as a wedding gift in 1986.

Energy tycoon Kenes Rakishev, 29, has reportedly bought the Sunninghill Park estate from the prince for £3m more than the estimated £12m.


Also recently, the British press has repeatedly paid attention to the friendship of Prince Andrew with pictured a prominent and wealthy representative of the Kazakh business community, who holds the post of executive director of Munaigas Engineering, Goga Ashkenazi (Gaukhar Berkaliyeva, IA Ruspres: the mistress of Timur Kulibayev, the husband of the daughter of the President of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, Dinara).

The Duke of York introduced Goga Ashkenazy to Queen Elizabeth last year, they spoke together at a trade conference in Qatar, and last December they were seen dining together at a restaurant in Ascot.

Of course, this is not the first mention of the prince in scandalous relationships. Before that, there were many articles about his love affairs.


Then the youngest daughter (pictured left) of the middle son of the Queen of Great Britain, Prince of York Andrew and, accordingly, the granddaughter of Elizabeth II, gave her grandmother an unpleasant surprise on her official birthday - one of the school teachers found 18-year-old Princess Eugenia frolicking in the college courtyard in the nude reports the British tabloid The Sun.

According to the newspaper, the teacher woke up in the middle of the night from an unexpected noise - under his windows, about ten girls were dancing in the costume of Eva, including the princess.

The name of Princess Eugenie appears from time to time in the gossip column, but not as often as the name of her sister, Princess Beatrice, who loves nightclubs and wild entertainment.

Goga Ashkenazi (Berkalieva)


Born in the Dzhambul region. Kazakh. Mother - Saule Aralbaeva.

She was educated in England, where she has been living since the early 1990s. She studied modern history and economics at Oxford.

The international media called her "the ex-wife of Aidar Akaev, the son of the ex-president of Kyrgyzstan Askar Akaev" (in 1998-99), "the wife of the American millionaire Stephen Ashkenazy", "the mistress of Prince Andrew of York", "the girlfriend of the international playboy and the organizer of the Formula -1 "Flavio Briatore (since 2002)".

Since 2007 - chief executive officer in the London office of the Kazakh oil and gas company "MunaiGaz Engineering Ltd" and, according to the tabloid News of the World, the owner of 5% of the shares of the Altyn Almas corporation, 5% of the shares of the Kazturboremont plant, the company "MunaiGaz Engineering" , which is building the fourth workshop of the Opornaya compressor station and oil and gas pipelines in the Mangystau region ... she is credited with friendship with T.A. Kulibaev "(Megapolis, No. 43 (408) dated 01.12.2008).

He lives with his mother and son in a country house in Surrey, then in a mansion worth $ 56 million in Holland Park in London.

In present time (12.2008) - divorced. Son - Adam Berkaliev (born December 27, 2007, London, father, according to the newspaper "Events and People", No. 5, April 7 - 14, 2008 - Timur Kulibaev).

The claim was made by Epstein's former assistant and butler, who said he met the prince three times at Epstein's £4m Palm Beach home.

Juan Alessi, who worked for Epstein for 11 years, also told the Daily Mail that during his visits, the prince enjoyed the services of young masseuses every day. He stated that after the procedures, Andrew appeared "with a smile on his face." The butler is sure that Epstein paid for the massages.

Masseuses received $100 an hour for their services, which were provided in a closed part of the house. Only Epstein and select guests had access to this part, he added.

This is the same mansion where bars of soap in the shape of male and female genitalia lay in some guest rooms, and the same 58-year-old Epstein who persuades minors to prostitution - a crime for which he served 13 months in prison, starting in 2008. He was also accused of hiring "erotic masseuses" whom he harassed during daily routines.

According to Mr Alessi, Andrew and Epstein's close friend Ghislaine Maxwell - the 49-year-old daughter of the late media mogul Robert Maxwell - kept a bunch of sex toys in the house.

However, there is no evidence that the Prince had sex at Epstein's house, or knew what was allegedly going on behind closed doors.

Buckingham Palace declined to comment on the news yesterday - a local source only emphasized that there was no reason to attribute "improper" behavior to Andrew.

However, it is clear that these revelations will raise a new wave of questions about the validity of the Duke's tenure as UK Special Representative for International Trade and Investment.

Note that Mr. Alessi, who worked for Epstein until 2002, was limited in his statements due to the current confidentiality agreement he signed when he left his job with the financier. To talk about what happened in the so-called "House of Sin" Epstein, he could only "in in general terms The Palm Beach mansion was "stuffed" with erotic photographs of young women, he said. Asked if Andrew had seen the photographs, the butler replied, "You have to be blind not to see them. Photos of girls without clothes were all over the house ... Most of them are from Europe.

Mr. Alessi also said naked girls frolicked in the pool during the prince's stay at the house. When asked if he was sure of this, the butler replied, "Yes. I can't prove it, but I remember what I saw with my own eyes." He also noted that the prince himself was not naked, and he had no evidence that the bathers were minors.

Mr Alessi, a retiree who owns a chain of properties for rent, admitted: "The first time I met Prince Andrew was in a private property on Palm Beach sometime in 2001. It was a huge house, and if Epstein or the prince had anything If they needed something, they would call me and I would bring them, say, a cup of tea or something else."

The former butler noticed that the prince's bodyguards were relaxed during visits to the mansion and stayed in one of the guest rooms.

"In those days, they (Epstein and the prince) flew a lot. They traveled a lot and were absent from the mansion."

Mr. Alessi, whose wife also worked for Epstein, said Andrew had "daily massages" during his visit to the Palm Beach mansion. Was he really satisfied after each procedure? "And you wouldn't?" Mr. Alessi laughed.

Did he leave the room with a smile on his face? "Yes, of course!" he replied.

Mr. Alessi admitted that although he was absolutely sure that the prince had massages, he could not give more detailed information on this occasion. The procedures were carried out on the second floor, which was isolated from the rest of the property.

"We didn't have the opportunity to go up there. We couldn't have witnessed what was happening there. We could imagine it. I think other employees will tell you about it."

Asked who paid for Prince Andrew's massages, Mr Alessi replied: "It's quite possible I did it (on Epstein's behalf). The girls who came to the mansion to get massages weren't paid the same day. They celebrated their working hours - two hours today, three hours tomorrow, for example - and at the end of the week I paid them."

Alessi also revealed that the prince was "a very well-mannered man."

"We had about 1,000 guests and he was one of the very few who left us a tip... About $200 I think... He also asked if my wife and I would like to take a photo with him as a keepsake. I also liked that he always made his bed."

Stephen Glover(Stephen Glover)

[…] His friendship with Jeffrey Epstein admittedly began years before the billionaire pedophile was sentenced to 18 months in prison for soliciting an underage girl into prostitution.

In this case, Mr. Epstein's inclinations were clear enough for anyone reasonable person- not to mention who is fourth in line to the throne.

Prince Andrew did not understand these inclinations. He enjoyed spending time with the American and even took him to Sandringham and Windsor Castle. According to an affidavit made by a former Epstein employee, about a decade ago the prince had regular massages at the billionaire's Florida mansion, where the masseuses worked for £60 an hour.

In 2001, Epstein flew to London, where he introduced Virginia Roberts, a 17-year-old "erotic masseuse" whom he sexually exploited, to the prince. The girl spent only some time with Andrew. It was then that the ill-advised photo was taken, where the prince hugs her waist.

This is by no means evidence that he had an inappropriate relationship with Ms. Roberts or anyone else in Mr. Epstein's circle (by "inappropriate" I mean relationships with underage girls). But such a close association with a vicious man, whose appetite for young girls should have been obvious to the prince, implies an error that is hardly likely.

Epstein, according to Miss Roberts, seduced her when she was 15 years old. She says: "Basically, I was a prostitute for him and his friends, who shared an interest in young girls."

What attracted Prince Andrew in such an abnormal person? Perhaps, though I find it hard to believe, he was witty and charming. Perhaps Andrew enjoyed the company of "erotic masseuses" without thinking about it. He was almost certainly attracted to the American by the fact that he was a generous and hospitable billionaire. Last December, he stayed at Epstein's New York mansion for five days.

[…] In 2007 he sold his estate Sunninghill Park, near Ascot, to a gentleman named Timur Kulibayev for substantially more than £12 million. At the asking price, the house was not sold for several years.

Mr. Kulibaev is the billionaire son-in-law of the president of Kazakhstan, an oil-rich and thoroughly corrupt former Soviet Republic where Andrew had a good time. The prince had a close relationship with Goga Ashkenazi, Kazakh businesswoman and former mistress Kulibaeva.

Prince Andrew and Goga Ashkenazi
The prince was also friends with the convicted Libyan arms smuggler Tariq Kaytouni, which was revealed after their joint four-day vacation in Tunisia in November 2008, before visiting Colonel Gaddafi in Tripoli. Rest expenses were covered by Keituni. When this fact was made public in the newspaper, the prince's representatives stated that Andrew would reimburse Tariq for all expenses.

Prince Andrew made frequent visits to Libya, both privately and officially in his capacity as UK Special Representative for International Trade and Investment, and may have had a favorable influence on British business development there. Despite claims of a close friendship with Saif al-Gaddafi, the dictator's son, royal sources say he only met him twice. […]

And further. Also known is Andrew's close relationship with David Rowland, a multimillionaire who is called a "shadow financier" in the House of Commons. Last year, after the revelation of shocking details of his personal and business life, he was unable to take the post of Treasurer of the Conservative Party. […]

The problem is that the Queen has a special fondness for her second son, and her maternal eye does not notice, the costs of the prince's behavior are so obvious to others ... Ten days ago he was nominated for the title of Knight of the Royal Victorian Order (GCVO) for his service to the Queen.

[…] He is a spoiled, self-indulgent and apparently not very thoughtful person, blinded by great wealth. […]

On Sunday, The King's Speech won several Oscars. It shows, though perhaps somewhat exaggeratedly, the struggle that King George VI, Prince Andrew's grandfather, had with his stutter. Struggling with this shortcoming, the King was driven by a sense of duty to his country and its citizens. He denied himself luxury and lived very simply.

How different is his grandson! […] If Prince Andrew is not put on the right path, he could do serious damage to an institution that most Britons still hold dear.

The client masturbated and aroused the young "masseuse" with a vibrator

Shady billionaire Epstein was given a 'massage' by girls 2-3 times a day

© NEWSru.co.il , Israel, 06/11/2009, Case of billionaire Epstein. The FBI hides the text of the deal with the lover of "girls"

Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, 56, has been serving an 18-month sentence in the Palm Beach County Jail, Florida, since last year. He was convicted of using the services of underage prostitutes. Epstein should be released soon.

On Wednesday, June 10, Palm Beach District Court was considering a request by lawyers representing Epstein's former "girls" to release the text of a document describing the contents of a deal between Epstein's lawyers and federal prosecutors. The petition was denied at a preliminary hearing, but will be considered again "in full" in two weeks.

According to former district judge Bill Berger, who currently represents the interests of some of the "girls" of Epstein, the public has a right to know the contents of the "secret amicable agreement" between the billionaire and the FBI. The lawyers were familiarized with the contents of this document, but they were forbidden to publicly discuss its contents.

The scandal around this case has not subsided for several years.

Financier and philanthropist Jeffrey Epstein was one of America's most respected citizens. Among his friends were President Bill Clinton, media mogul Donald Trump, businessman Les Wexner, many Nobel Prize. For some time he taught physics at school, then founded his own financial company and excelled as a businessman. His firm initially bore the name of the owner "J. Epstein and Co", then was renamed "Financial Trust Co". It is said that Epstein's clients were exclusively billionaires, mostly Jews - including Les Wexner. In parallel with the business, Epstein was actively involved in supporting scientific projects.

Thunder struck in March 2005, when a woman went to the Palm Beach police with a complaint about Epstein. The woman said that a few years ago, her 14-year-old daughter got a "job" at the Epstein mansion: she was hired for $300 as a "position" as a masseuse. She performed this work naked, and her client masturbated in front of her and aroused the young "masseuse" with a vibrator.

An investigation was launched into the complaint. It was carried out in secret, as it was a question of a very rich and influential person. Agents found that Jeffrey Epstein repeatedly resorted to the services of underage prostitutes (there were at least five of them). 17 witnesses were found who testified under oath. The investigation found that Epstein developed a "safe system" for receiving such services: he hired young women who found him "girls" for massage, but the "owner" himself did not hire minors. Two housekeepers who testified in court said that when the "owner" came to the villa in Palm Beach, such "girls" gave him "massages" 2-3 times a day.

The case of a girl from Yugoslavia, Nadia Marchinkova, was highlighted in particular. One of the "girls" told investigators how Epstein boasted that he brought a "slave from Yugoslavia" to the United States and forced the witness to have lesbian sex with Nadia while watching them.

In 2007, top model Maximilia Codero testified against Epstein, alleging that Jeffrey raped her when she was 16 years old.

Epstein's lawyers said in court: their client did not know anything about the fact that the girls whose services he used were minors. This was confirmed during the interrogation of the accused using a lie detector. For a long time, Epstein pleaded not guilty to any of the charges. And he admitted his guilt only on June 30, 2008.

After that, some public figures and scientists who received funds from the Epstein Foundation returned the money to him.

Many in Florida believe that Epstein received too lenient a sentence: a year and a half in prison, with the right to daily visits. In the comments on this case, published in the local media, one could come across the words that the pedophile financier simply went on a "long vacation", but did not suffer the deserved punishment. But there are those who believe that Jeffrey Epstein did nothing illegal, and in his case there was enough public censure.

It should be noted that the exact information about the personal condition of Jeffrey Epstein is not published. His name is not mentioned in the list the richest people America, nor in the world list of Forbes magazine's billionaires. However, the media write about Epstein as a "billionaire".
