Latest / The Vault: The Epstein Files / And Out Come The Wolves: The Battle Being Waged Over Virginia Robert's Estate (4/24/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
- 0:03Epstein Chronicles. One of the most unfortunate things in the
- 0:07wake of somebody passing away, if they had some money
- 0:10or some assets, that money and those assets has to
- 0:14be distributed to the people that are still alive, that
- 0:18were a part of the family or that were in
- 0:20the will. Well, in Virginia Roberts case, there was no will,
- 0:25and now it has become an absolute battle royal over
- 0:29her money and her estate, and it's just sad to see. Look,
- 0:33let's be very clear, the only people that should get
- 0:36any of her money are her kids. Anybody else that
- 0:40shows up with their hand out, well, in my opinion,
- 0:42you should put your hand back in your pocket and
- 0:45go get a job. Today's article is from the Deli
- 0:48Mail and the headline Virginia Roberts family is at war
- 0:52over who gets Andrew's multimillion dollar payout after she died
- 0:56without leaving a will. The author of this article is
- 1:00John Brady. The family of Virginia Roberts, who accused Andrew
- 1:04Mountbatten Windsor of sexual abuse, is set to battle in
- 1:08court over who is entitled to her multimillion dollar estate.
- 1:13It's just a bad look. And I hope to God
- 1:16that if I ever passed away, and I was ever
- 1:18in this kind of situation, that my family wouldn't go
- 1:22crazy over the money. I mean, this should all be
- 1:24a non issue, right, Her kids should get that money.
- 1:26How is this even a debate? Miss Roberts, who took
- 1:30her own life at her farm near Perth in Australia
- 1:33in April, died without a will, leaving the future of
- 1:37her vast wealth uncertain. The forty one year old had
- 1:41amassed a substantial fortune through compensation and civil lawsuit payouts
- 1:45over allegations that she was trafficked by Glenn Maxwell, to
- 1:49Jeffrey Epstein and then to Prince Andrew. So every dollar
- 1:54that gets made from that book, every dollar that Virginia
- 1:57had in the bank, besides whatever has to be used
- 2:00for debt or whatever, should be distributed to her children.
- 2:04This is the easiest debate we're ever going to have.
- 2:07In my opinion, It's not bad enough that these kids
- 2:11are going to have to live without their mom. Now
- 2:13they have to watch the family dive into this whole gruesome, ass,
- 2:17disgusting display. It's just a bad look all the way around.
- 2:22Among the payouts was a settlement from mister mount Batten Windsor,
- 2:26thought to be as much as twelve million pounds, which
- 2:29he paid her in twenty twenty two to see off
- 2:31a civil case. And there's no doubt that he paid
- 2:35her a gigantic bag. Now, the same people that wanted
- 2:38to tell you that the picture that Virginia and Andrew
- 2:41took together was fake, well they want to tell you
- 2:43that she didn't get that much money from them. They're
- 2:45lying to you. Virginia got a bag, big time dough
- 2:51and guess what every dollar was deserved. And in my opinion,
- 2:55all of that money should go to her family, her kids,
- 2:58everybody else. They should wait in line. Now if she
- 3:01owed somebody some money, yeah, those creditors they all get,
- 3:04you know, dealt with. But after that, how is it
- 3:07even a debate? How is it even a debate? Who
- 3:10gets this money? She also received five hundred thousand from
- 3:14Epstein in two thousand and nine when he settled sex
- 3:16trafficking and sexual abuse claims against them, and an undisclosed
- 3:20amount from Maxwell in twenty seventeen. Maxwell remains in prison
- 3:25serving a twenty year sentence in the US under spousal
- 3:29inheritance laws in Western Australia, Miss Jeoffrey's husband, Robert Jeoffrey,
- 3:34will be entitled to a lump sum and a third
- 3:37of the remaining estate. What does that even mean? Entitled
- 3:41to a lump sum? How much is that lump sum?
- 3:45And we all know the reports that were making their
- 3:47way around before this happened with Virginia about her having
- 3:50marital problems, and if she sent her lawyer that letter,
- 3:54well that should end the discussion. As far as I'm concerned.
- 3:58He gets not the case, get everything, and like, if
- 4:02you're a good dad, you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
- 4:05I know if I collected a bag after my mom
- 4:07passed away, I'd be taking care of my dad too.
- 4:11But it always comes down to goddamn disgusting money, doesn't it.
- 4:14It's always about who can get the most whenever they can,
- 4:19always a double handed grab. And this is why I
- 4:21highly suggest that everybody out there has some kind of will,
- 4:26even if you don't have much right, make the process
- 4:29easy on everybody else that's going to be left behind. However,
- 4:34it's been reported that Miss Roberts emailed her lawyer to
- 4:37say she did not want him to have any of
- 4:39her money after he initiated divorce papers two months before
- 4:43she died. Well, you're getting divorced in the process of it,
- 4:47Why should he get any of that money now? Maybe
- 4:50from like previous time together, he should get a few
- 4:53bucks or something, But the vast majority of this money,
- 4:57once again should go to her children. And as far
- 5:00as anybody else in the family goes, I don't think
- 5:03they should be entitled to any of it, unless, of
- 5:05course Virginia promised them something and it's in writing. But
- 5:08besides that, why should anyone else be entitled to her estate?
- 5:13Prior to her death, Miss Roberts became a strange from
- 5:15her husband, who remains at her two and a half
- 5:18million dollar beach side home in Western Australia, one of
- 5:21four properties she owned, including the farmhouse in near Gabby.
- 5:25She had alleged that he'd become controlling, and it was
- 5:28later claimed that he was responsible for an assault that
- 5:30put her in the hospital in January. Like, how could
- 5:34you even think of putting your hands on this woman?
- 5:39After all the shit she's been through, you're gonna put
- 5:41your hands on her? Shit is just baffling to me.
- 5:43How can you claim to love somebody and then beat
- 5:46the living shit out of them. I can never come
- 5:49to grips with that. I just don't understand it. Robert's
- 5:55behavior became more controlling, she claimed in private diaries. The
- 5:58stronger I became, scarier he became. And there are people
- 6:02out there like that, right. I'm not going to comment
- 6:05too much about their personal relationship because I don't have
- 6:07any information about it, but I'm talking about in general.
- 6:11Sometimes people want to be that caretaker, if you will,
- 6:15the person that's watching over you. And then if you
- 6:18start to spread your wings, you start to become a
- 6:20little bit more independent. Well, that takes a toll on
- 6:23the other person. And if they're crazy, who the fuck
- 6:26knows what they're gonna do. And according to Virginia, in
- 6:29these reports, it became physical. But mister Jeffrey was later
- 6:34granted a restraining order against his wife and was given
- 6:37temporary custody of their younger children. Last month, he declined
- 6:41to answer questions from the Daily Mail reporter in Australia
- 6:44on the future of her estate. His lawyers have declined
- 6:47to comment on the abuse allegation, citing ongoing court proceedings.
- 6:52Her younger brother Sky Roberts and half brother Danny Wilson
- 6:56have hired a lawyer to oppose his claim. They're also
- 6:59said to want to contry roll or charity for sex
- 7:01trafficking survivors speak out act reclaim. Look, I'm not gonna
- 7:05comment on that because I just don't know what the
- 7:08internals are. And if somebody is gonna take that organization over,
- 7:14they should be somebody that's going to treat it with
- 7:17a proper amount of respect and care. And if that's
- 7:19her brother's, great, If not, it should be somebody else.
- 7:23But again, what I will say is this, if it
- 7:26was me personally and it was my sister, I'd be
- 7:29fighting for every single dollar to go to my niece
- 7:32and nephew, not anybody else, Not myself, not the ex husband,
- 7:37not my parents, not Jesus Christ himself, those kids. Several
- 7:43million dollars of Andrew's payout were pledged to soar, but
- 7:45are still being held in a bank account controlled by
- 7:48a third party, as The Male reported in August, but
- 7:52Robert's paternal aunt, Kimberly Roberts, says that her family does
- 7:55not believe the brothers have a claim to the money.
- 7:58She told The Telegraph we don't believe they have a
- 8:00right to it. The estate should go to her children
- 8:03only big time. That's it. Anybody trying to fight for
- 8:06crumbs in the wake of Virginia passing away like this,
- 8:10when her children are alive and well and have their
- 8:13whole lives ahead of them, should really reevaluate what they're
- 8:16doing because it's not a good look. And in my opinion,
- 8:20and remember I only speak for myself, I find it disgusting.
- 8:23Her sons, Christian nineteen and Noah eighteen, had made a
- 8:27bid to take control of the administration of her estate
- 8:30in June this year, but on Monday, Western Australia Supreme
- 8:34Court appointed lawyer Ian Torrington Blatchford to take interim control
- 8:39of the estate. The Guardian reported, following a legal challenge
- 8:43by Robert's lawyer Carrie Lowton and housekeeper Cheryl Myers. What
- 8:47does that even mean? Why are they involved? Why does
- 8:50Cheryl Myers want anything to do with the estate? It's
- 8:54sad and it really shows you who cares about Virginia
- 8:57or who cared about Virginia and who will only wants
- 9:00to benefit. It means that several challenges to her estate
- 9:04can go ahead as well as other civil cases, including
- 9:08a defamation suit brought by Rena oh who claims miss
- 9:11Roberts made her out to be and accomplished of Jeffrey
- 9:14Epstein rather than one of his victims. And that is
- 9:17a lawsuit that's been going on for quite some time.
- 9:20We've talked about that a little bit previously, and maybe
- 9:23we'll go through some of the court documents, but it's
- 9:26a contentious battle that was being waged at the time
- 9:29of Virginia's death, and now the estate is going to
- 9:33have to continue waging that battle. Right it's a defamation suit,
- 9:37and even though Virginia isn't with us anymore, that defamation
- 9:41suit now moves over to her estate. The court orders
- 9:44also state that mister Blatchford is authorized as her legal
- 9:47personal representative with regards to her memoir, Nobody's Grow, which
- 9:52was published in October and held by the Males Janmar
- 9:56for its immediate impact on Andrew's legacy after his royal
- 9:59titles stripped away. It included allegations at our father Sky Roberts,
- 10:04molested and raped her as a child. Mister Roberts has
- 10:07denied the claim and maintains that his daughter did not
- 10:10commit suicide. Well, I have no idea, but if Virginia
- 10:14said he did that, why would she lie? What would
- 10:17she gain from that? So I have to lean towards
- 10:21Virginia telling the truth, and that opens up a whole
- 10:25last other conversation that is disgusting as fluck he claimed,
- 10:31I'm Puris Morgan uncensored earlier this year, prior to the
- 10:34book's publication. There's no way that she committed suicide. Somebody
- 10:38got to her. And look, I don't know. I have
- 10:41no idea the official reports at suicide, but we all
- 10:45know how official reports are. But I think that the
- 10:48likelihood is that Virginia, unfortunately did take her own life.
- 10:53Now I won't tell you that that's for sure because
- 10:56I don't know, but I will say that she was
- 10:59going through it, and sometimes when you're going through it,
- 11:03things get rough. Right and after everything this woman has
- 11:07been through to finally get to a point where she
- 11:10should be enjoying some of the success of the lawsuits,
- 11:13the children she has, you know, instead, she has this
- 11:17relationship with her husband that's not going so well, and
- 11:21according to her, she's getting beat on. So I can
- 11:23only imagine the trauma that was resurfaced when all of
- 11:26that was going on. Western Australia police say her death
- 11:31is not being treated as suspicious. This week, the vast
- 11:35majority of Brits said Andrew should travel to the US
- 11:38to testify before Congress over his links to pedophile Jeffrey Epstein,
- 11:42who died by suicide in prison in twenty nineteen. Allegedly,
- 11:47you gov polling showed seventy five percent of people believe
- 11:50mister mount Batten winsor should tell us lawmakers what he
- 11:53knows of Epstein's history. Well, yeah, what do you think
- 11:57the people in the UK are okay with this shit?
- 11:59They are not. I can assure you from the emails
- 12:02I get from people across the pond, they're more fired
- 12:05up than people in the US over some of this shit.
- 12:08Despite saying in his disastrous Newsnight interview that he would
- 12:12help investigators, Andrew has yet to respond to calls to testify.
- 12:16The Prime Minister has added his voice to calls for
- 12:19Andrew to keep his word, saying anybody who has got
- 12:22relevant information in relation to these kinds of cases should
- 12:26give that evidence to those that need it, and that's
- 12:29them asking you to do the very basic amount of
- 12:32work right, a bottom level of work, come forward and
- 12:36talk about what you know. And if you're too scared
- 12:39to do that because you might end up getting hammed
- 12:42up yourself, then I think that's a pretty good tell
- 12:44as to your level of involvement in all of the
- 12:48allegations made against you. So, of course we don't have
- 12:51the evidence right to say definitively that this is what
- 12:55Andrew did. But when you start building the case with
- 12:58all that circumstantial evidence, how do you get anywhere else?
- 13:02So for me, there's no doubt that Andrew did everything
- 13:05that Virginia said, And there's also no doubt that Virginia's
- 13:10fortune or whatever's left of her estate should go to
- 13:13her children, and in my opinion, anyone standing in the
- 13:16way of that is part of the problem. All of
