Prince Andrew Claims ‘Peculiar Medical Condition’ Proves Innocence Against Sexual Misconduct Allegations

Although Prince Andrew was previously photographed with Jeffrey Epstein on several occasions, it doesn’t mean he was good friends with the convicted sex offender. One of Epstein’s victims previously claimed she had sex with the Duke of York.

Virginia Giuffre shared details about the incident and claimed Prince Andrew was “profusely sweating” during the encounter. However, he recently denied the accusation and implied he has a medical condition that doesn’t allow him to sweat.

During an interview with BBC’s “Newsnight,” Andrew told Emily Maitlis that Giuffre couldn’t have been describing a sexual encounter with him.

“There’s a slight problem with the sweating because I have a peculiar medical condition which is that I don’t sweat, or I didn’t sweat at the time, and that was...was it...yes, I didn’t sweat,” he said to Maitlis.

“At the time, because I had suffered what I would describe as an overdose of adrenaline in the Falklands War when I was shot at, and I simply...it was almost impossible for me to sweat,” he continued.

Prince Andrew went on to claim the condition has affected him for years and has recently got it under control.

“And it’s only because I have done a number of things in the recent past that I am starting to be able to do that again. So, I’m afraid to say that there’s a medical condition that says that I didn’t do it,” he explained

This isn’t the first time Prince Andrew has been accused of inappropriate behavior. In September, a report claimed Andrew got into a “verbal dispute” with a palace employee.

Sources claimed Prince Charles stepped in to diffuse the tension, and Andrew backed away without issuing an apology.
