Sarah Ferguson visited Jeffrey Epstein on two separate occasions while he was in prison and later emailed him that he was “a legend.” The visits took place at the Florida Science Foundation office in Palm Beach, a sham company Epstein established to obtain work release privileges.
In an April 4, 2009 email, Ferguson asked for “a quick cup of tea” during a Florida stopover and signed off, “Love Sarah The red Head.!!” Epstein replied with the office location and wrote that it was “ten minutes from [the] airport.”
April 20 and May 13
Ferguson then tried to arrange another meeting for April 20, 2009, writing about spending an hour “for a brainstorming of your genius ideas.” On the morning of that planned visit, she said, “Aaaaghhh... Cannot make the flights.”
Her second visit came on May 13, 2009. Epstein’s driver collected her from the airport alongside Martin Huberty, and the visit came during the same week that Lord Mandelson telephoned Epstein from London and said things were “still riotous here politically.”

The correspondence adds detail to Ferguson’s contacts with Epstein while he was serving time for procuring a minor for prostitution. It also places the meetings inside a work-release arrangement that let Epstein use the Florida Science Foundation office as the setting for visits and calls.
That timing sits alongside later allegations that victims were sexually abused at the office on 250 South Australian Avenue while Epstein was supposedly incarcerated at the nearby Palm Beach County Stockade. Four weeks after Lord Mandelson’s Skype call from New York City, Epstein was released from custody.
Sarah Ferguson and Jeffrey Epstein
Ferguson’s language toward Epstein now stands out in the record. She called him “my dear spectacular and special friend Jeffrey,” said “You are a legend, and I am so proud of you,” and asked about meeting him again while pursuing his “genius ideas.”
For readers, the practical takeaway is simple: the newly surfaced emails and visit details show how close the contact was during his incarceration, and they put dates, locations, and travel arrangements around it. The unresolved issue is why Ferguson wanted those meetings and what she hoped to gain from them.
