PRINCE Andrew has been spotted after Jeffrey Epstein court documents reportedly made the "devastated" Duke "lock himself away in a room".

       The royal was this week named AGAIN in another set of bombshell files linking him to convicted paedophile Epstein.

       Andrew was previously accused of having sex with underage Virginia Giuffre on Epstein's "Paedo Island" as well as allegedly knowing about his pal's sex crimes.

       Listings made public about Andrew claims he "has knowledge of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking conduct" - and had "interaction with underage minors, including Giuffre".

       Other documents included claims that Andrew allegedly had an "underage orgy" while staying on the private island.

       In the latest drop, Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer claimed Guiffre lied about having sex with Andrew because he was "too big for the bath" where she alleges an assault took place.

       Andrew denies all wrongdoing.

       On Sunday, he was snapped leaving the Royal Lodge in his Land Rover Defender on Sunday to go on a dog walk - something he does at this time every week.

       The Duke appears to be going about his usual business despite reports claiming he had hidden away inside his is 30-room mansion in Windsor Great Park.

       A source told the Mail last week: "He doesn't have the emotional bandwidth to deal with this.

       "He has locked himself away in a room and has no idea how to respond. He's devastated."

       Following further damaging claims to the Prince, he was also spotted on Saturday attending a shooting party with pals at the grounds of his home.

       The Duke bowed his head as snaps of the group were taken.

       It is now the third time Andrew has made a public appearance since he was brought up in connection with Epstein again.

       He was spotted behind the wheel of his Range Rover at his Royal Lodge home, in Windsor, on Tuesday after the allegations resurfaced.

       EXPLOSIVE EPSTEIN CLAIMS

       More than 1,000 pages of court documents including emails, depositions and legal papers spanning the 2010s were made public by a US judge.

       The files were part of a 2015 lawsuit filed by Giuffre against Epstein's madam Ghislaine Maxwell.

       Previous court docs revealed major allegations against the billionaire financier's pals, including Prince Andrew.

       A statement by Maxwell's lawyer's Philip Barden is included in the most recent files which are made up of 17 exhibits.

       On page three of exhibit one, he claims: "By way of example I recall that prior to the December 2014 filing of the joinder motion and the subsequent press reports that Ms Guiffre clearly stated that she did not have sex with Prince Andrew.

       "Yet in her joinder motion she claimed she did have sex with Prince Andrew and that the sex occurred in what can only be described as a very small bathtub.

       "Too small for a man of Prince Andrew's size to enjoy a bath in let alone sex.

       "So as of December 2014 it was clear Ms Guiffre had made polar opposite statements. She was either lying when she said they did not have sex or when she said they did."

       In January last year Ian Maxwell, the brother of jailed socialite Ghislaine, released a bizarre picture as “proof” Guiffre was lying about “frolicking” in the tub with the royal.

       Sitting fully clothed in a bath-tub, two people can be seen in improvised masks depicting the Duke of York and his accuser Giuffre, demonstrating the small size of the tub.

       The latest claims come just days after Epstein victim Sarah Ransome doubled down on allegations that Epstein made sex tapes of Andrew, Bill Clinton and Richard Branson.

       Andrew, Clinton and Branson deny wrongdoing.

       A spokesman for Branson said: “We categorically reject all allegations made by Sarah Ransome.

       "In 2016, Ms Ransome retracted her claims and then in 2019 after settling her claims with Epstein and Maxwell, she also admitted to The New Yorker that the 'tapes' had been 'invented'.
