Prince Andrew has reportedly made an unannounced visit to Bahrain following claims he is plotting a new role as a UK trade representative.
The disgraced Duke is said to have flown to the Gulf state this week on a private jet owned by a Swiss billionaire associate who has not been named.
But there is no public record of the trip as the 62-year-old is no longer a working royal, having been stripped of the status over sex abuse allegations against him. Andrew had some success with a similar ploy in 2015 when he was temporarily deployed to ‘restore good relations’ with Bahrain despite having stepped down from the envoy role after years of mounting criticism linked to his behaviour on the job and friendship with Epstein.His supporters are said to believe ‘a prince could succeed’ where PMs and presidents failed as ‘sometimes a royal will only speak unto another royal’.
The prince’s reported hosts have been accused of overseeing ‘dismal’ human rights abuses by international watchdogs.
