Prince Andrew has, allegedly, been receiving love letters from Ghislaine Maxwell while she’s in prison.

According to Globe, Maxwell has been pouring her heart out in her letters to the Duke of York.

In the letters, Maxwell has, allegedly, been telling Sarah Ferguson's wife about the nightmare that she's going through in prison. She's also, allegedly, urging Prince Andrew to get through this nightmare with her together. 

Prince Andrew's former friend has also been telling the royal that she's innocent and that only the Duke of York can help clear her name. And Maxwell is, allegedly, assuring Prince Andrew that she's got his back and that she won't say anything that could implicate him.

The source said that Prince Andrew hasn’t responded to Maxwell because he’s aware that doing so could cause more problems. Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip are already furious with the Duke of York, and they can’t believe that their son is being accused of sexual abuse and harassment.

As such, Prince Andrew has, allegedly, decided to keep his distance from Maxwell. And Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie's dad couldn't also help but pray that Maxwell would stop writing to him for good. 

The source also said that the Duke of York has been saying that he would cooperate with the FBI if he's called to testify against Maxwell. As such, he doesn't think that they could work as a team. 

But despite Prince Andrew’s attempts to avoid Maxwell, the source said that the dad of two cares deeply for Jeffrey Epstein’s former madame.

“These two have an intense bond. The talk is Ghislaine was secretly in love with Andrew – not Epstein – all along! She’s likely to be highly offended if he doesn’t do something to help her. I’m sure he worries that by ignoring her, she’ll turn on him at trial. It’s really a no-win situation for Andrew, but he’s dug his own grave,” the source said.

However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. Maxwell isn’t writing secret love letters to Prince Andrew. And to concoct the storyline that she’s always been in love with the Duke of York is a low blow even for a tabloid.

Prince Andrew and Maxwell got to know each other through Epstein. And there is no indication that they were closer to each other than Maxwell and Epstein were with each other.
