**Prince Andrew Faces Renewed Disgrace Over Alleged Thai Orgy During Official Visit**
*September 22, 2025, Published 3:04 p.m. ET*
Prince Andrew is facing renewed disgrace after explosive claims have emerged alleging that he held a weekend-long orgy with dozens of women in Thailand while on official royal duty. These revelations come amid intensifying pressure over his ongoing ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
The 65-year-old Duke of York, who stepped back from public duties in 2019 following his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview, is now the subject of a new biography by author Andrew Lownie. Titled *The Rise and Fall of the House of York*, the book reveals details that RadarOnline.com can exclusively share.
### Book Alleges Andrew Hosted Thai Orgy in 2006
According to Lownie’s research, during a 2006 diplomatic visit to Bangkok—where Prince Andrew represented the crown at King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s diamond jubilee—the Duke allegedly ordered a continuous stream of women to his suite at one of the city’s most exclusive hotels.
“Often, as soon as one left, another would arrive,” one witness told Lownie. Thai hotel staff, typically accustomed to discretion when dealing with visiting dignitaries’ excesses, were reportedly shocked by the scale of the encounters.
Sources cited in the book allege that more than 40 women were brought to Andrew’s room over the course of the weekend.
A royal insider commented on the revelations:
> “The Thai orgy story, combined with the renewed pressure of the Epstein scandal, means there is no conceivable way back for Andrew as a working royal. These details make clear just how reckless he was with his position, and the institution cannot risk further damage by reinstating him.”
### Links with Notable Figures in Birthday Tribute Book
These claims reinforce long-circulating rumors in Bangkok that Andrew and another foreign dignitary exchanged women via chauffeured cars in what insiders described as a grotesque display of power.
Lownie writes that emboldened by his royal status, Andrew made no attempts at discretion, flaunting behavior insiders say symbolized his sense of impunity. One source remarked:
> “Andrew has long acted as though the normal rules never applied to him – and for much of his life, he got away with it.”
Adding further fuel to the fire, the Epstein scandal has resurfaced in headlines due to a 50th birthday tribute book given to the late financier. The book shows how Donald Trump allegedly sent Epstein a gushing and lewd card, alongside tributes from Bill Clinton and former U.S. ambassador Peter Mandelson.
### Thai Orgy Highlights Systematic Behavior
Andrew once insisted he did not regret his association with Epstein, even after Epstein’s 2008 conviction. Epstein’s confidante, Ghislaine Maxwell—now serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking—has also been linked to Andrew, with photos depicting the three together.
An acquaintance of Epstein told Lownie that the disgraced financier remarked Andrew was “the only man he had ever met more obsessed with sex than he was.”
Virginia Giuffre’s allegations of sexual assault against Andrew—which he has always denied—ultimately led to a multimillion-dollar settlement in 2022, ending any prospect of Andrew’s public return to royal life.
Lownie argues the Thai episode underscores that Andrew’s behavior was neither incidental nor an isolated lapse. As another royal source explained:
> “This was not some casual affair or isolated lapse. It was an organized stream of women brought in while he was overseas on official business, funded by the taxpayer. It underlines both the depth of his entitlement and how far he exploited his position.”
### Current Status and Outlook
Since settling the Giuffre case, Andrew has rarely been seen in public. Palace aides have reiterated that he holds “no formal role” in royal life.
An insider shared:
> “Andrew feels the Epstein scandal is just endless for him, and it is. It will haunt him until he draws his last breath.”
With fresh scandals continuing to emerge, such as the Thai orgy story, even the faintest hope of Andrew’s rehabilitation within the royal fold appears extinguished.
