Other emails between Mr Mountbatten-Windsor and Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for child trafficking, were also published on Friday.
The disgraced British socialite sent an email to an address linked to Mr Mountbatten-Windsor with her condolences after the death of his grandmother in 2002.
The email, sent on March 31 2002, and addressed to The Invisible Man, refers to him as “sweet pea” and says of the late Queen Mother: “She was wonderful, and I am happy that I managed to meet her and speak with her.”
The following day she received a reply thanking her and signed “A xxx”.
Todd Blanche, the deputy US attorney general, said the material published included more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, though not all were taken by Epstein or those close to him, and they included “large quantities of commercial pornography”.
The Trump administration was required by law to release all the material it holds on Epstein, who was jailed in 2009 after admitting soliciting prostitution, by Dec 19 last year. It had only released a fraction of the files by the deadline. The remainder of the material is believed to have now been published.
Epstein’s wide network of rich and powerful friends also included Donald Trump, who Epstein had claimed “knew about the girls”. However, Mr Blanche insisted Mr Trump had been exonerated by the full release of the files.
He said: “In none of these communications, even when doing his best to disparage President Trump, did Epstein suggest President Trump had done anything criminal or had any inappropriate contact with any of his victims.”
