John Bryan became world famous with a very spicy photo. The businessman had a relationship with Prince Andrew’s ex-wife in the 1990s. After splitting from Prince Andrew, Fergie hung out with the US entrepreneur and photos were taken of the two on vacation with Bryan sucking Fergie’s toe. A scandal that made history.
Now Bryan gave an interview to “The Mail on Sunday” for the first time and revealed spicy details of his connections to the British royal family. He has known the Royals for over thirty years and has remained friends with Fergie even after their relationship ended in the 90s. Despite being a successor to Prince Andrew, he also appears to be on friendly terms with him.
In the interview, John Bryan primarily reports on the scandal at the royal court surrounding Prince Andrew’s connection to the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Bryan, a respected financial adviser, recounts how the Yorks gathered on November 30, 2019 to deliberate on the scandal. They met to devise a strategic restoration of the duke’s shattered reputation and finances. John Bryan is also said to have been smuggled into the Royal Lodge on the grounds of Windsor Castle in a cloak-and-dagger operation so that the press would not get wind of his support.
The 67-year-old tells of an angry Prince Andrew who “scolded and raged” and is said to have shouted: “I don’t care” after the Queen relieved him of his royal services. Desperate Princess Beatrice is said to have said to her father: “You have harmed our family”. In the interview, Bryan also reports that he was very surprised to be invited to this crisis summit in 2019. “Sarah asked me to come and help Andrew and the girls. She reached out to me because I’m adept at dealing with situations like this. I rebuild failed businesses, I rebuild people, I rebuild families ” said Bryan.
Prince Andrew is said to have been going through a difficult time personally and financial problems have also plagued the royal after his mother, the Queen, suspended him as an active royal. John Bryan agreed to help the family devise a “long-term strategy” which he dubbed the “House of Kroy” – he flipped the word “York”. Central to his plan was the need to convince Prince Andrew that he needed to show sympathy for Epstein’s victims and that he understood the magnitude of the pedophile’s horrific crimes.
The following day, Sarah Ferguson invited Bryan to the Royal Lodge for the second time. Bryan endured a complicated journey involving two trains and a cab before the driver picked him up at an undisclosed location. “I was paranoid that anyone would find out I was there,” he explains. “Can you imagine what the reaction would have been? This was at the height of the Prince Andrew Newsnight interview scandal drove to the lodge.”
Sarah Ferguson’s ex also said in an interview about the connection between Prince Andrew and the allegedly underage women: “I saw a lot of his girlfriends during my relationship with Sarah and never, not once, did he show up with a woman who wasn’t Mid 20s was up.” Also, in the interview, John Bryan speculated that blackmail by Epstein might be at the root of all of this.
“People always wondered how Epstein made his money. He was supposed to be a tax wizard. But it was all fraud. He blackmailed rich men and then made them pay to avoid a scandal. He has hundreds of millions that way Dollars made. Epstein tried to lure Prince Andrew into his net, but I think his ultimate goal was the Queen.”
Bryan claims that there was a conspiracy to blackmail the Queen and that the allegations against Prince Andrew are unfounded. John Bryan says: “I believe Andrew is innocent. If he really had been involved in ‘orgies’ as has been claimed, then Epstein would have used that to try to bribe the Queen into paying off millions to protect her family .”
Fergie’s ex-boyfriend puts hope in the Duke and Duchess of York’s daughters: “Beatrice and Eugenie are the face of the next generation and I believe they will be the ones who will help their family recover and grow thrive.” When asked by The Mail of Sunday, the Duke and Duchess of York declined to comment after the Duchess’ ex-boyfriend’s first interview.
