Ghislaine Maxwell, a masseuse booked for a naked massage, described Andrew as “more famous than God”
As the royal was stark naked, the masseuse herself placed a long towel over his naked body only uncovering those parts that she needed to touch.
A masseuse has revealed that convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell once hired her to give a naked massage to Prince Andrew, referring to the British royal as “more famous” than God.
On June 30, 2000, Monique Giannelloni massaged the Duke of York. At the time, the masseuse, who was a member of the British Register of Complementary Practitioners, was working at a clinic in Kensington and doing home visits. Maxwell was one of her clients, and the masseuse paid two visits to the socialite’s Belgravia home, both of which were attended by Jeffrey Epstein.
She was asked to massage Andrew during her visits to Maxwell’s house. She recalls Maxwell saying her about her celebrity status during her first massage, while Epstein looked on. “Don’t you know who I am darling? You should read the tabloids I am a celebrity,” Maxwell reportedly told her.
Maxwell also told the masseuse, “I am going to introduce you to someone more famous than God.”
Giannelli told Mail Online about the conversation, “When she told me about that person more famous than God, I thought she may have meant an actor or something. Never in my wildest dreams did I think it would be royalty.”
She noted that she was even more “shocked” at the scene she witnessed when she entered the palace room to give Andrew a 90-minute-deep tissue sports massage. “When I walked into the room to give him a massage, he took off his robe and was naked. I wasn’t expecting that because this was obviously a very high-profile person and I was very nervous,” she recalled.
“I was a bit shocked to see him without any clothes on but it’s usually the client’s choice on whether they want to be naked or keep on something to protect their modesty,” she added.
Giannelloni revealed that while she was massaging Andrew, a picture of Andrew’s ex-wife and their two daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, was also on the next table. Because the royal was completely naked, the masseuse draped a long towel over his naked body, only exposing the parts she needed to touch.
“It did feel a bit strange, but I remained very professional throughout even though I was a bit scared because I was giving a massage to a senior member of the Royal Family. He was naked throughout the massage but always remained on his front,” she recalled.
Giannelloni’s revelations come shortly after another masseuse, Emma Greenbaum, claimed that Andrew acted like a “sex pest” during their massage sessions at the Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park, insisting on being naked apart from a towel.
