Lady Victoria Hervey, a former girlfriend of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has come out with her incredibly controversial take on the Epstein case. She claims that not being named in the files is an “insult” and that if you weren’t invited to party with the rich sex trafficker it would “just mean you are a loser.”
Hervey made the comments during an interview with LBC in which she told the host that “[Epstein] knew everybody that was very powerful.” She went on to claim that being close friends with the deceased New York financier didn’t equate to a crime, it simply meant you were more than likely an influential figure. “If you were on the scene and you were powerful, like, to be honest, if you are not in those files, it would be an insult.”
Her nonchalant attitude towards the whole thing shocked host Tom Swarbrick who responded, “That’s an astonishing attitude. I find that jaw-dropping.” Hervey may have a point, maybe not everyone invited to Epstein’s parties knew what he was doing, but it seems she’s more concerned with absolving those involved with Epstein rather than investigating the extent of their involvement.
What’s worse is the fact that she also conveniently ignores the serious allegations and rather disturbing emails Andrew himself allegedly sent which indicate he was more than a powerful friend to Jeffrey. The files show that Epstein certainly had rich and powerful accomplices who likely knew what was happening.
Lady Victoria Hervey has some controversial Epstein opinions
As you’d expect, the words of a privileged and ignorant individual such as Victoria Hervey have not sat well with the common people. “The woman is vile, an appalling individual.” wrote one person on X, adding, “How can you be so unbothered by paedophilia[?]” Another labeled her “a pedophile-supporting hag.”
Thankfully, most who are aware of Hervey already know that she is a wholly unpleasant individual with some very backwards and appalling opinions.
During her time on the LBC show she also made the wild claim that Jeffrey Epstein was still alive. “I don’t even think Jeffrey Epstein’s dead anymore, to be honest,” she told Swarbrick, claiming that she believed the pedophile was alive and well in Israel. She isn’t the only one to believe this particular conspiracy. Recent files made public have prompted some online theorists to put forward a theory that Epstein was swapped out the night before his death.
Whatever the case, it’s not a badge of honor to be named in the Epstein files like Hervey thinks it is. Hopefully a proper investigation into all those close to Epstein can be conducted at some point soon but we all know that’s sadly a rather far-fetched pipe dream.
