Buckingham Palace Scandal: Andrew Facilitated Private Tour for Crypto-Mining Firm in Exchange for £1.4m Deal with Ex-Wife
A shocking revelation has emerged about a private tour of Buckingham Palace arranged by Andrew Mountbatten Windsor for businessmen from a cryptocurrency mining firm, Pegasus Group Holdings, in exchange for a £1.4 million deal with the firm's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson. According to the BBC, the visit took place in June 2019, during which the businessmen, Jay Bloom and Michael Evers, met the late Queen, although the details of the encounter are disputed.
The private tour was facilitated by Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, who drove the businessmen through the palace gates in his own car after collecting them from their five-star Knightsbridge hotel. The visit was a result of a £1.4 million deal between Pegasus Group Holdings and Sarah Ferguson, who served as the company's brand ambassador. Ferguson's employment with the company was a significant factor in securing the deal, as the firm's owners, Jay Bloom and Michael Evers, were able to leverage her royal connections to secure the private tour.
According to the BBC, Pegasus Group Holdings employed Sarah Ferguson as its brand ambassador, and the company's owners had a close relationship with her. The cryptocurrency mining scheme, which employed Ferguson, ultimately lost investors millions when it failed less than a year later. The failure of the scheme raises questions about the legitimacy of the £1.4 million deal and the motivations behind the private tour.
The scandal has sparked concerns about the influence of royal connections on business deals and the potential for exploitation of royal connections for personal gain. "This is a clear example of how royal connections can be used to secure lucrative deals," said a spokesperson for a transparency advocacy group. "It's unacceptable that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor would use his royal status to facilitate a private tour in exchange for a £1.4 million deal."
The BBC has reported that the late Queen was in residence at Buckingham Palace during the visit, although the details of the encounter between the Queen and the businessmen are disputed. The palace has not commented on the matter, and Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has not responded to requests for comment.
The scandal has also raised questions about the role of Sarah Ferguson in the deal and her employment with Pegasus Group Holdings. Ferguson has not commented on the matter, and it is unclear whether she was aware of the private tour and the £1.4 million deal.
The current status of the investigation into the scandal is unclear, and it is not known whether any further action will be taken. The palace has not commented on the matter, and Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has not responded to requests for comment. The scandal has sparked widespread outrage and calls for greater transparency and accountability in the royal family.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the palace said, "We do not comment on private visits to the palace." The spokesperson for Andrew Mountbatten Windsor did not respond to requests for comment. The BBC has reported that the businessmen, Jay Bloom and Michael Evers, have not commented on the matter.
The scandal has significant implications for the royal family and the palace, and it is likely to be the subject of ongoing investigation and scrutiny. As the investigation continues, it is clear that the scandal has raised important questions about the influence of royal connections on business deals and the potential for exploitation of royal connections for personal gain.
