Social networks believe they are clear that the last interview that Kevin Spacey gave to the journalist turned youtuber Piers Morgan is, above all, an image wash after his multiple accusations of sexual abuse. But this has not prevented the way in which he spoke about who supported him at that time from drawing attention: King Charles III of England.
At a given moment in the talk, the interpreter, who lived in London between 2004 and 2015, praised the monarch for the “extraordinary work” he had done with his Prince’s Trust charity, which aims to help people aged between 11 and 30 get jobs and start their own businesses.
The presenter, who has been linked to far-right ideology, asked him if “when the scandal broke out” of the 64-year-old actor, the now sovereign extended his hand to him. “No, I didn’t hear from him directly, no,” Spacey responded.
“But, and through other people?” Morgan insisted, since the now king granted him the title of knight of honor [Sir, en inglés] in June 2016. “That may be true,” has admitted, as well as hinted that said words came to him indirectly.
“I heard a message, yes, and I am very, very grateful for it,” the Oscar winner continued, confirming that said message was “supportive.” Although Morgan pointed out that this gesture must have “meant a lot” to Spacey, he quickly explained: “Yes, but look, I don’t intend to see him involved in all this.” Finally, he has confessed that he wrote a letter to the monarch that he never sent him.
His friendship with Epstein
Furthermore, at another point in the program, Spacey has revealed that he met Jeffrey Epstein after former President Bill Clinton invited him to an eight-day humanitarian trip to Africa in 2002which was intended to “raise awareness and prevention about AIDS”, with a special focus on women who already suffered from it.
He has stated that he got to spend a whole day with Nelson Mandela and that the trip was “incredible”, speaking with medical professionals. And he added that That’s why his name appeared in the Lolita Express records.the private plane of the tycoon and sex trafficker.
“From then on I knew who he was, because upon returning I was able to discover that the jet in which we flew for this humanitarian mission was owned by Jeffrey Epstein,” he explained, adding that he did not know him, because he spent his time “with people from the Clinton Foundation.”
Of course, he added that he felt “uncomfortable” on the trip. “I didn’t want to be around that guy because I had the feeling that he put the president at risk on that trip to South Africa, because [el avión] It was full of young girls,” has remembered.
This flight ended in London, with Kevin Spacey and Jeffrey Epstein’s right-hand woman Ghislaine Maxwell taking a photo laughing and very complicit sitting together on thrones at Buckingham Palace, although the actor denies that she was his friend, nor was the tycoon who committed suicide.
As he himself explained, he ended up there because Bill Clinton, whom Tony Blair had invited to give a speech, wanted to see Prince Andrew, a friend of Epstein and accused of pedophilia.
