Tycoon Sir Richard Branson had breakfast with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein three years after the US financier was jailed for a child prostitution offence, a court document claims.
In 2019, after Sir Richard’s name had appeared in a ‘little black book’ of high-profile Epstein contacts, a spokeswoman for the billionaire Virgin founder said that the two men had ‘no personal or business relationship’.
But a bombshell legal document seen by The Mail on Sunday reveals that in 2011 Epstein emailed his private banker Jes Staley and the former Labour Cabinet Minister Peter Mandelson to tell them of his alleged meeting with Sir Richard.
