Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s ex-girlfriend has claimed that Jeffrey Epstein is not dead, and was instead involved in an elaborate plot to escape prison and flee to another country. Lady Victory Hervey has insisted that Epstein could still be alive and well after being switched out by a “trip van”.
Speaking on LBC to presenter Tom Swarbrick, Andrew’s ex dropped the bombshell statement seemingly out of the blue. Lady Hervey added: “I don’t even think Jeffrey Epstein’s dead anymore, to be honest.” Pressed on the shocking statement, she insisted that she didn’t believe that he had hanged himself and instead had fled to Israel.

Epstein’s death in 2019 and the confusing aftermath have long been the source of conspiracy theories online.
Guards claimed to have found Epstein unresponsive in his jail cell at 6:30 a.m. at the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in New York City, hanging off the side of his cell’s bed as he was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
Almost immediate rumours of cover-ups caused widespread suspicion; however, Attorney General William Barr described Epstein’s death as “a perfect storm of screw-ups”, causing several high-profile prison bosses to be given the boot.
Many of the conspiracy theories online stem from an anonymous post on 4Chan before Epstein’s death was announced.
The poster – claiming to be a prison guard – alleged that the bodies were switched and that Epstein had been smuggled away in a “trip van”.

While the theory remained on the fringes over the past six years, after the release of the millions of Epstein files, one email seemed to confirm that the poster was actually a guard.
The message caught the eye of Lady Hervey, who added: “I think, just, I’d seen one of those emails, one of the ones that ended up in the files, and I think that the prison guard needs to be interviewed. The one that said he saw the bodies being switched out.”
She then claimed again that Epstein could be in Israel.
Lady Hervey herself appears in the Epstein files a total of 23 times, something she wears as a badge of pride, calling anyone not in the files a “bit of a loser”.
Lady Hervey went on: “He knew everybody that was very powerful. So, like, if you were on the scene and you were powerful, to be honest, if you’re not in those files, it would be an insult because it just means that you were a bit of a loser.”
