Grab your popcorn. Netflix is making a movie about the famous interview that led Prince Andrew to step back from his duties as a working member of the royal family.
The BBC sit-down, which took place in November 2019, was conducted by Emily Maitlis. The journalist questioned the Duke of York about his alleged friendship with disgraced billionaire and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein following his death earlier that year. Andrew faced sexual assault accusations of his own at the time — but denied them at the time of the broadcast.
“I have no recollection of ever meeting this lady, none whatsoever,” the second son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip said of Virginia Giuffre’s (née Roberts) claims that she was forced to have sex with him three times between 1999 to 2002. “It just never happened.”
Following his Newsnight appearance, Andrew announced he would be stepping back from his royal duties.
“It has become clear to me over the last few days that the circumstance relating to my former association with Jeffrey Epstein has [become] a major disruption to my family’s work and the valuable work going on in the many organizations and charities that I am proud to support,” the November 2019 statement read. “Therefore, I have asked Her Majesty if I may step back from public duties for the foreseeable future, and she has given her permission.”
The interview was organized by producer Sam McAlister, who went on to write about the experience in her memoir, Scoops: Behind The Scenes of the BBC’s Most Shocking Interviews. Ahead of the book’s release in September 2022, McAlister exclusively spoke to Us Weekly about what happened behind the scenes.
