Prince Andrew’s charity, Pitch@Palace, came under investigation after reports surfaced that it made £355,000 in payments to his former private secretary, Amanda Thirsk, following her resignation amid the fallout from his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. The payments, which occurred in 2019 and 2020, raised questions about how the charity’s funds were being used and whether they were appropriate under charity law. Regulators at the U.K. Charity Commission launched an inquiry into whether Pitch@Palace and its connected entities had been properly managing finances and acting in the public interest. The investigation came as the Duke of York faced widespread backlash for his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview, where he failed to show remorse for his association with Epstein, prompting many corporate sponsors and backers to sever ties with his charitable ventures.
Amanda Thirsk, who was instrumental in managing Prince Andrew’s business and philanthropic activities, left her role following the Newsnight interview but soon reappeared on the payroll through Pitch@Palace Global Ltd — a private company linked to the charity. Critics questioned whether charity money had been diverted to support Andrew’s personal circle amid reputational damage from the Epstein scandal. The Charity Commission stated it was assessing the charity’s operations to ensure compliance with governance rules and transparency standards. The controversy added to growing public and institutional scrutiny of Prince Andrew’s finances and his continued role in public life as his connections to Epstein continued to erode what remained of his royal standing.
