Singer Jaguar Wright accuses royals of attending illegal Diddy’s parties

Prince Andrew, who has faced several scandals in recent years including as one of Jeffrey Epstein’s favorite clients, was reportedly dragged into the drama last week after singer Jaguar Wright made explosive claims about Diddy’s infamous parties.

Wright claimed that a number of politicians and members of the royal family were filmed attending these illegal gatherings. “I think what will shock people are the politicians and the royals who were on this tape. And I’m still trying to figure out when Harry and Meghan will be honest about their freak-off video,” she noted.

“I don’t think anyone really wants to talk about the fact that the royal family was often at the Diddy parties. Especially that crazy uncle.”

Still, no one has ever seen Harry and Meghan at Diddy’s party, and as far as they know, they’ve never met. However, in 2007, Harry and William were spotted at an event where Diddy performed at the Princess Diana Memorial Concert at Wembley Arena.
